We are talking ourselves to death and dying very slowly in the process.
There is a story here: using the tools that created the problem . . . to try to fix the problem . . humm
Buying a realpolitic approach to organizational building
Seminaries as institutions that are driving the destruction of the faith . . .
Knowledge as anathema to faith
No hope - only the reality of knowledge, factual
Personalization of all things designed to idolize the self - modern, for sure.
A lack of spiritual instruction and inclusion in the common church experience.
A money solution to all problems - building & grounds, isolation, alienation, the poor, the dispossessed.
A preoccupation with sin as defined as a select group of individuals, professions, mindsets and beliefs.
No wonderment about the amount of suffering and its value to daily life.
Not understanding the role of salvation
No role for death and destruction, just to be something to be avoided.
Jesus had some thoughts about a dead body that doesn't know its dead, while the rest of the world kicks dirt on it. Each kick isn't enough to cover the corpse, but over time it will be buried.
Let the funeral begin - or has it already started?
