Brian, That sounds great! I'll be pretty busy this weekend (Army work), but I can start a discussion with you in the Forum tomorrow 1 December 2006 (Friday) and then later on next week from Monday 4 December and onwards . . . Please let me know when you post it (please feel free to use my direct e-mail at [EMAIL PROTECTED]) because Nationalism is a very pertinent political issue to be discussing. Thank you again. Blessings in Jesus, Rob

I don't want to take this mail thread off-topic. As for the usefulness of quizzes like this, I think something better is required to use the internet to engage people in the political process. Something like ....a wiki. Interactive, information rich, and more sophisticated than a simple quiz. Yes or No answers aren't good enough.

I agree about Nationalism being an efficient form of government, but do you think that it is more likely to cause war? For example as Americans, we are held together by governmental and bureacratic structures, mass media, etc. but what seems to "unify" the country more than anything is going to war. This is sad, and as a Just-War Advocate in the Christian Tradition, I opposed the War in Iraq (but not opposed to the Just-War in Afghanistan), but no one would listen to such concerns then (I was a 20% minority in March 2003, along with the infamous Dixie Chicks!). Now, 3 years later, Iraq had the makings of a blood-bath, but I think that the problem will be contained with Shalom (a theological category) with Moderate Islam in the Middle East. They should all bury the hatchet and just get back to work. Blessings, Rob J King, U.S. Army
