"Jesus Loves Me Only" cartoon by nakedpastor David Hayward
I believe in independence, sovereignty, and autonomy. But this doesn't necessarily mean exclusivity and exclusion.
It seems to me we're getting these two ideas confused.
William James wrote:
"Why may not the world be a sort of republican banquet of this sort, where all the qualities of being respect one another's personal sacredness, yet sit at the common table of space and time?"*
Yes, indeed! Why not?
So this is
exactly the idea we are experimenting with at the table of
The Lasting Supper. And the experiment is going well. Please join us there. I will personally welcome you and help you feel comfortable.
