I have been asked by a few people to participate with 4Tucson. Here is my reaction to 4Tucson (with the hope that someone may provide a thoughtful response to set me straight if I have an incorrect stance):
I am not convinced that the 5 problems on 4tucson.com (No Vision For Our City, Worship the Environment, Don't Value Families, Disregard For Christian Heritage, Undervalue Economic Impact of Churches) would be something that I would like to spend any time/energy/resources on.
I currently have a full plate when it comes to ideas and opportunities to spend time, energy and resources.
Here is one that I enjoy promoting a great deal: freeproliferibbon.com. I currently have a list of over 100 good ideas that I would like to eventually pick from to work on (eventually) when I get caught up on current obligations, projects and commitments.
So if one of 4Tucson's 'problems to address' included 'Stop Abortions (In Tucson)' then I may be interested in spending time, money and resources with them.
The Council of Church Leaders is a piece that I remember from the 4Tucson flow chart that also raised a flag with me, since that appeared to be something that I would not want to work through. I aspire to be 'too much of an Entrepeneur' to enjoy that sort of filter.
Sincerely,

If we impact our community with Christian values we will see a change of heart among the people. The most effective thing we can do to stop abortions is see people come to Christ. Once they believe in Christ they won't kill their baby.
After putting some thought into it, I think the top problems for our city would include the following:
- homelessness
- illegal aliens
- sewer treatment plant near the highway
- speed cameras
And for our country, I would flag the following:
- legalized abortion
- inflation from the US Dollar
- variable federal income tax
Jacob, stop arguing and do something, not everyone is calle to the same mission. If you feel you have a different mission or vision, great! DO IT... criticizing the vision of others and just blatantly arguing for no reason will not bring any good to our city. It is the time for christians to pledge their lives for Jesus...we must be men of action, not just of words and arguments....

Criticizing someone for 'criticizing'? Never say never.
What is your action plan? What have you done so far?
