Christian Conversion
I am familiar
with evangelical conversions
understood as moving away from sinner,
unredeemed heathen,
unenlightened addiction to evil,
demonically disempowered
reprobate status
moving toward regenerative winner status
saved by the blood of the Lamb.
This traditional way of processing
progressive
therapeutic conversion
is a change through predation,
colonization,
of one orthodox religious template
for all Other incorrect cultural defects.
To the contrary, the Conversion Experience
of bioregions,
of ecosystems,
of healthy v pathological subclimates
of polycultural resilience
rather than monocultural predation,
These systemic Conversions
are more akin to,
part of,
reconnecting with
win/win creolization of
two or more complex cultures,
transubstantiating integrity,
polypathic metaphoric metamorphosis
of win/lose competitive conversions
through predation
co-redeemed into win/win cooperative conversion experiences
through compassionate prayer,
mutual appreciation,
interfaith synergetic dialogue
Less debate about cultural differences,
dogmatic contrasts,
however left-brain dominantly important,
And more dialogue about multicultural comparisons,
orthodox eco-systemic healthy faith values,
win/lose suboptimizing values,
lose/lose actively despairing degenerative pathological disvalues
of assuming victorious predation
speaks of conversion
through HolySpirit-Messianic-Bodhisattva
healthy fruit
than does integral
interfaith
multiculturing compassion
polyculturally intelligent win/win discussion,
cooperative wisdom discernment
of democratically healthy win/win standards
for spiritually healthy conversion experiences
of interdependent individuals,
egosystems
thinking win/win ecosystemically
with the wisdom
of a MotherTree
regeneratively converting MotherEarth
Longing for humane species commitment
to climate health,
public body/mind nondualistic health,
personal win/win reconversion
empowering healthiest
enlightening interfaith community wealth.
Conversion can mean win/lose colonization
and evangelizing missions of cultural predation.
But,
I find little gospel support
for capitalistically
and patriarchally
and LeftBrain dominantly
settling for anything less
than baptism through the living HolySpirit
creolization process
into cooperative win/win regenerate mind/body
spirit/nature
bilateral
binomial
bicameral
Right/Left ongoing co-empathic conversions.
Healthy and Peaceful Earth mediates,
facilitates,
ecosystemically and organically witnesses,
mentors co-passionate multicultural conversions
away from sectarian straight white patriarchal
capital competitive win/lose
anthropomorphically privileged
misanthropic lose/lose diversions
away from win/win healthy ecosystemic
theo-logical Earth-converting
ecotherapeutic win/win interfaith
Earth Restorative Justice and Peace
through 20/20 revolutionary conversion experiences.
