The way of true reform is less in rehashing old arguments than it is in updating consciousness that informs relational realities, what religious living is about.
We live in a universal, quantum-electric reality in constant process of evolving. We can commune with each other, with all other, in humility and outreach, or we can continue in persistent ignorance and hurt other by behaving arrogantly in consumptive self-interest.
The Light of universal insight, above all else seriously tells us we are one in the ecology of nature, in the Sacrament of Natural Order, and our common future supposes altruistic sensitivity toward all other in the context of our common home - what is rightly characterized as being "eucharistic" in Godlike appreciation.
We, as one people, have no hopeful future if we psychologically disconnect from the continuum of earth-life in our religious suppositions, as we have done in the past and continue to do in the present.
First Church, is home belonging to all life.
