text: Your suggestion that the particular order and speed of things is the "only" Christian response is very restricting. I've rarely found only one Christian--or human--response to most any issues, let alone worldwide issues. Response to large issues needs multiple responses before some success is found. People need to have the flexibility to take the next good--or Christian--step, then the one after that, then the one after that. I agree with the goal, but not the assumption of knowing the best, or most effective, way to get there. Francis doesn't see himself as a "dictator" type, and seems most concerned with getting the Body of Christ to come back to life and fulfill its promise as a more decentralized Body than with other issues. So that's not Christian? I think that waking up the Body is more likely to bring the results you want than anything else right now.
