King, I hope you would agree that I have tried to be a neutral observer in this thread. I have asked genuine questions about your proposal because, quite honestly, it intrigued me. I am not a "war player" or a "terrorist." I just thought the idea of a world body might help sort out the many, many wars that get fought on our planet. Here is what I have found:
1. The body you propose seems to have structural inadequacies that would render its decision ineffective were there to be any true threat to peace.
2. The entire model could easily be infiltrated by those who wish to destroy the system or change the system.
3. The website lists a different governmental model than the one proposed here. Namely, the chairman of the Elite party has the power to make the final decisions. It also states that the capital country remains the same and "rotates" the president. This seems infeasible to me and again poses a serious security ris

I respect what you said because you did not direct your coments on me personally. I understand your concern about religion, but there is not religion there, It is just the Bible. Religion comes with tradition, the Bible is not tradition. I won't be able to take down the Bible because it is the truth. Whether anyone wants to admitt it.. People try to interpret the Bible, and that is why you have all these religions. We do not research as a people, humans. I put the information there because it is researched. If you take the time out to learn something you will know it. Everyone has a preconceived emotion of what they think is truth, therefore overlooking what the truth is, and calling the truth, what we think it is... We look at free will like it means we can do what we want to do, when in actuality free will is the ability to make a choice. There are only 2 choices in life. Live or die...

I can put down all the Christian traditions with the Bible. That is all I am saying. Truth trumps Tradition, if the Bible is considered the truth in your eyes. If the Bible is not the truth, and a history book in your eyes, disreguard what I say.. I don't want to offend anyone....

A CASE FOR THE NLUO.
prehaps the Nluo shouldn't be a world government but a Federation of nation states.Each Nation State holding a seat in the Nluo Federation partys Chambers.these chamber seats could then be elected to the Elite( or upper chamber) to HELP make the rules that the Federation was run by. Each lower chamber would discuss a rule or decision and pass it up to the next chamber for consideration then when it was ratified by the other chambers it would become Rule of the Federation with the top chamber acting out enforcment on the Federation members it had.
Now then the Chairman and Presidentual seats would be open for election on a regular bases while the other seats wouldn't change so often.
A Nluo Federation could be modeled after parlament and/or the house of representatives and congress .. with the power of the people within the FEDERATION governing it
it's just an idea and
then King could have hi

Since post 58 this thread went wrong, so ok, here is its true intent. Thx again for your time.

Hello.

This a topic intended to inform sim citizens of a few misconceptions of NULO and the injustices that are employed in undermining sincere efforts to get this movement off the ground.


At first. I really didn't care much for the Idea. In time I had come to realize that in fact it was a great IDEA at the very least. Many Vets would say that this is terrible. It is meant for King to rule the world with its devices. Its evil incarnate and so on.

Actually this is nowhere near having any truth in it. Those kind of statements are the Vet establishments attempts to remain in a shadow ruling coalition that dominates the SC landscape.They wish t retain power and keep it in place so that no one will be able to change what is already in place.

Under normal circumstances, I would say that what is in place does in fact

King, there are MANY people who do NOT consider the Bible as "the truth", as you do. I am one of those. Other religions are NOT founded from the bible as you so state.

The Jewish religion uses the Old Testament only. The Christian religion combines the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Muslium religion combines the Old Testament and the Koran.

Other major religions have nothing to do with the Bible, such as Buddhism or the Hindu religion. There are MANY others I could list as well.

Just because you feel the Bible to be the truth, does not mean everyone else shares your views. The book itself is full of contradictions and tall-tales and other absurd things. Yes, there are some things you can learn from reading it, but most of it is what I have already stated. This is just MY opinion though. However, there is very little scientific proof or fact resulting from the Bible. Until such time there is more, cou

I was responding to a legitimate concern of mine, as well as several others. It is a legitimate topic of the NLUO, for anyone who does wish to become a member. As the overtones are clearly visible all over the websites.

It also is a direct reply to several other posts in this thread.

What we seem to have here is a confusion over the meaning of the word "truth," as opposed to the meaning of the word "factual."

How am I not being nice? I'm not saying "remove all religious items from the website". I'm just stating, that some people may have a problem joining an organization that is based somewhat on religion (in this case, Christianity).

He is free to set up the NLUO however he desires. You said even I could comment, so I am. I'm expressing my opinion.

I still find the idea intriguing. We can ignore the religious concerns for now.

Focusing on Grayson's post above, couldn't the NLUO be a Federation of Federations, sort of an organization representing all of the federations on the planet? The larger feds could have a couple of members each and the smaller feds could have one member each. Each fed could determine its own method for choosing its representative in the NLUO. Maybe some could be elected at large from the community as a whole.
Or, maybe even better, one chamber could be elected as a whole community and one could be made of members elected by the member Feds?
This might make the body more palatable to the larger community while also giving it more ability to wield influence over all of LU.
