Eaglewings says:

Interesting point of fact that Rev Dr Martin Luther King was first a preacher of the gospel and then a leader for civil rights and and end to racism. Today we need more preachers preaching against the ills of society by proclaiming the gospel cure.

It is a known fact that you can not legislate love it has to come from the heart.
