Saving the Earth
There are two kinds of environmentalists broadly speaking. The first group want to save the earth FROM humans. They argue that we are a plague or an infection and that the earth is better off without us. saving the earth FROM humans means letting it go back to it’s natural state before we started exploiting…

Spirit
I’m becoming more solid in my monoaltrism. Human things like father, mother, and child proceed from spirit. I muddle things by using the term Holy Spirit.
