see I sacrifice to you

Jesus promised to make them fishers of men. Who are men? Adults. People capable of bigger things than Jesus. Not cattle to be led or driven or milked. They even left the fish on the shore! So we are here to catch men and women and in this case us!, our imaginations in particular, and put them to use in feeding and tending lambs and sheep—those who need our care. Who? is the question—Who are the sheep and lambs for us to tend and feed?

If you are tearing down, what are you left with? Nothing. So human nature is left with a choice between creating something or nothing, and this is not a choice. Humans therefore are predisposed to make good.

I have come to bring conversation and the apocalypse conversation brings.

Our work is inviting evolution. We do that by inviting evolutionary conversations.

Silly question time: If G*d is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, when did G*d stop creating?
:- Doug.
We still have an attitude in our business culture of Me boss, you employee, ugh! rather than What good can we do, together? This has spilled over to our general culture, and so we expect the expert from afar to come in and solve us. We are people: not to be solved but to get to work, together.
