you will see tons of cities come up as "cities of character". Our town is about to embark on it. They better not, because its a sneaky ploy by extremist religious fundamentalists to sneak biblical agenda into city charters and here is some more on it
http://www.charactercities.org/meet.asp
check out the names of the people on the site...I did
http://www.cleanjokeoftheday.com/support.html


I live in a small town called South Haven Michigan..recently the city
council here in town decided to embrace a doctrine sold to them called the
"City of Character" . It has a whole agenda, and many small towns all over
the country are part of it



a few people told me they were concerned about the "city of character"
agenda, so I did some more searching on the web and found out the idea was
from a guy named Tom Hill of Kimray Incorporated
http://www.charactercities.org/meet.asp

KImray Incorporated is an oil and gas global production company

http://www.kimray.com/About/Profile.html

and their AGENDA IS BIBLICAL

Kimray, Inc. is a manufacturer of oil and gas equipment and controls,
servicing producers and equipment manufacturers in the petroleum industry.
In order to effectively serve our stockholders, employees and customers, the
Board of Directors is committed to:

Honoring the Lord in all we do by operating the company in a manner
consistent with Biblical principles.
Serving our employees and their families by establishing a work
environment and company policies which build character, strengthen
individuals, and nurture families.
Producing a high quality, marketable product at a fair price in order
to provide a return on the stockholder's investment, share the Lord's
blessing with our employees, and invest in our community.
We believe that it is by God's grace and provision that Kimray, Inc.
has endured. He has been faithful in the past, and we trust Him for our
future.



SO PUTTING TWO AND TWO TOGETHER... this company is attempting to get
its agenda into small towns and sneak the agenda of biblical principles into
those towns by creating towns called
City of Character agenda..

I think this should be looked at VERY CLOSELY..ANYONE want to do some
more research on this??
THIS is Christian Dominionism tactics!

and it may very well be UNCONSTITUTIONAL!
