THE 25% REVOLUTION*

 

Most of us were taught the 50% plus one formula. We call this the "Majority Rule." These days, the popular term is "Silent Majority." History and research show us a totally different reality.


A committed minority, relentless and dedicated, needs to reach 25% of the population to reverse the majority viewpoint. This committed minority, relentless and dedicated, by modeling behavior--repeatly and consistently--eventually leads the rest to copy such behavior.

Dear Friends, do not forget this. Ever. The Jesus Movement began with Twelve. Sunday's lection reminds us of the behavior that eventually changed the world: love for others, especially the least, the lost, the last, and the left out.

Bonifacio had 30,000 Katipuneros. Each one of them ready and willing to die for our Motherland. Each one believing that love for country is the same as love for God.

The Pink Movement, committed to solidarity, volunteerism, and genuine transformation, has 15 million! That's already 25% of the voting population.

The 25% REVOLUTION has begun!
