Looking for how we can all win at this game of affliction, opportunity, difference, and conflict. This is the goal of the Betterment Project

“Awake! Awake! Arm of Adonai, clothe yourself with strength! …as in ancient generations! …Wasn’t it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; you who made the sea bottom a road for the redeemed to cross? Those ransomed by Adonai will return and come with singing.”

Maybe ending these #shootings happens by getting these lonely, isolated, dis-empowered men who have lost meaning and community into communities.

My news feed is so often full of the negative impact anti-vaccers are having. But there are not enough people willing to say, “yeah, we really don’t know if the vaccine is safe long term, but we all need to take that risk for the good of the nation.”

That kind of non-bs, honesty appeal to safety is exactly what the right needs to be hearing. So why is it not being said?
I’m vaxed but I respect the anti-vaxed on the principle of unity: if we can’t take them seriously we can’t find common ground with them. Without that, we are divided and nothing gets better. The issue is TRUST. we have to rebuild that. #vax #antivax
Replying to @LauraRbnsn
@LauraRbnsn I'm afraid I made the assumption you were atheist at first due to the... oh... academic if you will way you where analyzing scripture. Do you have an epistemology or theology that connects your faith as a practice to your scholarship?

I have a small youtube channel which, though it doesn't have any interviews yet, I'm wondering... would you be willing to come on to discuss approaches to the bible and how that connects to one's practice as a Christian? youtube.com/channel/UCL56rVE…

I'm not a professional, just stubbornly interested in spite of my limitations. 😜

I don’t expect people to agree with me on everything- that would be odd. My main hope is that people trust that I’m trying to solve problems and I’m open to different approaches - particularly if the data drives in a particular direction. Changing one’s mind is not a bad thing.
