NU SOCIETY IN A NU AGE Creating the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth This
presentation spells out a step-by-step process of correcting the
corrections system in order to correct the society, as follows: Our
corrections system is by far the largest in the world, with 25% of
all prisoners in the world in our prisons, even though we only have
5% of the world's population. PEACE PLEASE proposes that through
our experimental prison program called "Project Nu Life" 1. we can
create a model program that trains prisoners in the behaviors of a
responsible citizen so that they do not return to crime and prison;
2. which will thereby become a model for systematically reducing
crime in the larger society; 3. which will thereby become a model
for reducing law enforcement, security measures, courts, jails, and
prisons; 4. which will thereby become a model for restructuring the
larger society based on the model of this successful prison
program. How would this work? "Project Nu Life" provides: Twelve
Essential Services to Prevent Released Prisoners from Returning to
Crime and Prison 1. training in the behaviors of a responsible
citizen 2. job training and jobs 3. low-income and rent-to-own
housing 4. financial assistance 5. health insurance 6. literacy
training 7. a support network 8. seeing prisoners as good people
with bad behaviors, not as bad people 9. forgiveness and
non-condemnation 10. mutually supportive male-female relationships
11. encouraging our prisoners to strive for a higher purpose in
life than the accumulation of material possessions 12. a retirement
income
