How Can Humanity Live Together With Our Vast Differences?

Personally, I never want to reside on a Globe or even a nation or city exactly where absolutely everyone is the similar. Nor do I want to travel to regions precisely such as the one exactly where I frequently live and commit my time. You see, I which includes the nuance, the variations, and the distinctive'ness. I want to see, really feel, touch, taste, smell, and appreciate all that is, I want to practical experience a thing distinctive. How around you? If you are nodding yes to all or any of these statements, then stick about and let's speak.

Not extended ago, I watched an exciting CSPAN Television Book Critique at Baylor University featuring Os Guinness, who talked around soul liberty, that till we have freedom of believed and religion we can not have a worldwide peace. His book sounds pretty philosophical, the title of the book is:

"The International Public Square: Religious Freedom and the Generating of a World Protected for Diversity," by Os Guinness.

His Amazon description explains the trouble;

"How do we reside with our deepest variations? In a world torn by religious conflict, the threats to human dignity are terrifyingly real. Some societies face harsh government repression and brutal sectarian violence, though other folks are divided by bitter conflicts over religion's spot in public life. Is there any hope for living collectively peacefully? Os Guinness argues that the way forward for the world lies in advertising freedom of religion and belief for people today of all faiths and none."

And his answers are really fascinating, doable, and pretty much a modernized version of our founding father's vision for freedom of religion only globally. Os desires to see the "freedom of the soul, and the inviolable freedom of believed, conscience and religion." He also discusses in the book that it really is time for our countrymen, leaders, and worldwide mentors to stand up and free men's souls in the public square.

Yes, what a idea, what an notion, and why is not everybody providing Os a standing ovation? Why do we anticipate absolutely everyone to be the identical, act the way we count on? Are we afraid, afraid of what? Why would we want to aid sustain the social order of the Borg? It pretty tends to make no sense. We should not be forcing diversity, nor really should we be pummeling these who are distinct, pretty we should really relish, cherish and celebrate the various'ness and diversity. I wonder perchance if you may well engage this believed for a couple of minutes right after finishing this write-up.

Possibly you could shoot me an e-mail or appear up that book and study it. Till then, please contemplate all this and feel on it.
