Seminal Enlightenment
When I was in an interfaith seminary
I noticed three models
for understanding a faith community's purpose
in a democratic and diverse society.
1. Conservation of SelfRighteous Anger
To compete with,
and thereby degenerate the powers of,
sin and evil and ignorance
in a monoculturally untrustable
hedonistic
degenerating society
destined for just rewards
of hellfire and damnation
because untrustworthy
and untruthfully obscuring privileged
eco-political capitalist patriarchalism.
2. Liberating from EgoCentered Fear
To rescue us individual sinners,
benighted Earth defilers,
from our capitalist-patriarchal
competitive
oppressive
suppressive anti-feminist
homophobic
racist
ageist anthropocentrism;
To redeem our hopelessly negative
deviant bad health choices,
monoculturing,
left-brain dominantly encultured
verbal miscommunications,
disunions,
despairing experience of eternal apartheid,
loneliness,
unease and disease.
3. Empowering win-ego/win-eco CoMessiahs
To cooperatively enlighten each Other
to grow in compassion
and non-violent integrity of communication,
internal communion experience
and external harmonic community
for active eco-political hope,
cooperatively empowering faith,
deep learning multicultural love.
When I went to Public Administration graduate school,
I, thereby,
noticed three models
for understanding a democratic constitution's purpose
in a healthy society.
1. Red Anger Management
2. Blue/Green Repurposing Win/Lose Fears
3. Ultra NonViolet
Whole EarthPeace
Open ZeroZone
Win/Win EgoEco-Systemic
BiCameral CoOperative Empowerment
