[W]ith the collapse of the dualistic paradigm, a Christian appropriation of the postmodern cosmology begins to see all of creation as holistic and sacred. . . . [T]he fundamental human tasks of work, family, and citizenship are not simply areas of ethical responsibility. They represent, more profoundly, sacred experiences of mystical communion. . . . There is no longer a valid cosmological distinction between spiritual and temporal, sacred and secular, or clerical and lay. ~Joe Holland, chapter in Globalization and Catholic Social Thought, p. 126, via Randy Williams
Authentic religion throughout history has understood, articulated, and enacted creational communion as its reason for being. ~jpc
Commune, for creation’s sake! Namaste.
