If one places what is happening in America right now within the framework of human evolution, what emerges is a division between the supremacy if the white male against  the acceptance of diversity [which, in practice, includes white males]. Teilhard tells us that the trajectory of evolution is a movement toward unity, but a unity in diversity that recognizes  we--and all of creation--become ourselves only when we are able to unite with others. Unite, not conform. So we do not cling to the coattails of someone who presents as the only one who can solve our problems, but continue to realize--however imperfectly--that we are stronger together. Our identity a a Church is moving along the same way. Future generations, as Bishop Untener once predicted, will see us as "the early Church." Who knows how America 2016 will be seen?
