Likewise, there is no imposition of any belief in the material sciences that you have to have. There isn't any. It is about making the world work in a wholistic manner. This probably includes both individual freedom of choice and social responsibility. However, NCN as a whole has no agenda of political issues.
Any member is free to be of any observation that they choose.
Doesn't seem like that works very well. NCN is not about petitioning those in power to change the world for us. Rather it is a recognition that we, the regular people, are the ones who hold the power and WE need to change our world if anybody is. It is a bottom up approach in other words, but built on large visions. The orientation is towards doing something, not just talking about ideas.
