Take one world: / A globeful of people, most of whom are victims; / A handful of people passionately committed to justice; / A God overseeing and supervising without usurping total control; / An exemplary human life, in which the globeful of people and the handful of people and the overseeing God are united. / so that the particular human life is uniquely transparent to the divine; / A healthy respect for the past / and a healthy skepticism about institutions that have an unhealthy respect for the past; Human hearts in which anger and love are two sides of the same coin; / A willingness to risk judgments that might be wrong; / And an ultimate optimism combined with a provisional pessimism. / Mix well, and see what happens! / --Robert MacAfee Brown (1920-2001) / (c) 2005 Reach and Teach.
