    I seek to learn and try to understand . I feel a great and wonderful presence , and a tremendous sense of duty and responsibility , yet how does one respond in our modern troubled times ?
    I feel that what should so unite our species , has grown to become , what so divides us . May we work towards Peace and Harmony for all Life ,
    on this miraculous planet that we are born onto .

  1. So very well written . Yet my Grandparents would have felt that this is blasphmey . Times are so changing . May we find the wisdom , that the many ancient Spiritual Texts , tried to show to us , to control our destructive part of Human Nature , and enhance the Creative Part . We search for an understanding , of the world , and the communities , around us . We can learn to make it continually more and more complicated , or step aside of that , and recognise the wonderful opportunity , each new day , of simply working together . Such a big step , for people to work towards " unity " , but look at the steps we have made to get from the Stone Age to now our Space Age . We have done this together . Actually , it was our ancestors , each generation at a time , struggling to survive , and pass on a good or better world to their offspring , you and me . Now it is our generation . to pioneer forwards , in rapidly changing uncertainty , as or ancestors had to . They managed , with the most basic of tools , by their strength of spirit , and their family drive . As one species , one family group , we have that same opportunity . God is still beyond us to truly understand , BUT it does not divide us . Creative Part unites us . Lets do this for the kids an grandkids . God will like that . Long ago , did Humans make an error ? Now we can earn forgiveness , and work to find our ways , back to that Eden of a Garden . Such a big step . BUT . Primordial Soup to now our Space Age , how many big steps was that ? We've done it together . Lets keep on doing it again . One species one Planet , one shared history , one shared future . For our Vertebrate Family , an all of our neighbors . ( I think that that includes every living thing ) Do not let recent history limit the Creative gift that we are born with . Cool eh
  2. Greetings all . I feel , that these are wonderful , and deeply thought out comments , within an ongoing journey , that moves forwards towards understanding . I may never reach that " understanding " and my quest may be as old as human civilisation itself , yet there is a fulfillment born into me , that I try to express and share . I feel that God should unite us all , not divide us into groups . May I add some food for thought here , and draw attention to , what we have learned so much about our history of human civilisation . The ancient cultures , be it from the Aztec's or Australian Aborigines , to the Vikings and the Zulu's , all felt a great and wonderful presence , On every part of this wonderful planet , that folks have settled , they feel God around them . So there is God , but we feel it differently . To me , the wisdom of the ancient spiritual texts , that guided my great , and great great grandparents lives , are about community building and resolving destructive human emotions . Throughout human history , warfare and domination , threatened , and often destroyed , the hard work of peaceful and creative family folks . For a developing community to thrive , they needed to agree , about what is beyond them to understand . Thus , the ultimate authority , and who is the leader ( authority ) of that ultimate authority , becomes the lawmaker and keeper of wisdom and moral values . Look back through the last few thousands of years , it is repeated again and again . Stone Age to now the 21st century and our Space Age , without a Creation story to agree upon , we humans , divide into groups , and compete to dominate as much as anyone can grab . What a tremendous opportunity to move forwards , towards mutually beneficial harmony , as the conscious and developing species , about seven billion of us now , each uniquely different , yet biologically united by the honest hard work at survival of billions of years/generations of our ancestors . God is still beyond us humans to understand , but , the creative energy , of what we can now understand about our history , blossoms , as a new miracle each new day , My view is , that if us humans , can now see , how powerful that our emotions are , in our decision making , from the highest thoughts about God , to the constant everyday busy life , and being a part of our community , that , our distant neighbors , struggle with those same feelings . Such an amazing gift , our individual free will . A burden of responsibility at times , to the reckless freedom and detachment , of , who cares its my free will . My freedom , is nowadays 21st century , dependent upon , my neighbors , feeling that we talk about our historical differences , set aside the swords and bombs , and unite as modern humanity , who work to protect this beautiful place that we are born onto . What an emotional thing , work to protect creation , from our destructive human emotions . Is it God's job , or do we learn from the Spiritual wisdoms , that are spread across the continents and our history , and unite about seven billion people , to follow not just Moses Jesus and Allah , and the Eskimo an Morai . It is something so foundational and so basic : grow into the changing times , and adapt , for our offspring and survival . Jesus would like it , coming back , and see that we get along with our neighbor , forgive trespass , and protect innocent living things , from extinction . This has become very long , and I thank you for reading all of this . Towards peace an prosperity Ron .
  3. My name is Ron , and I look forwards to learning and sharing with your group . I am a fifty five year old male , from a traditional pioneer prairie farming heritage in Canada . Our family was raised as nondenominational Christians , as that the remoteness and travel difficulties of the praire , in the 1960's , limited our options . As a child , growing up on my Grandfathers farm , I was safe with whatever my parents and grandparents did . As that Grandpa needed to retire , the farm was left to older family , and my family and Grandma and Grandpa moved out to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island , British Colombia . Thus my youth was further enhanced by seeing and experiencing city living , as to rural lifestyles . Unfortunately , my father was taken away suddenly in a workplace accident . Mum raised us five kids on her own for five years . She then meet an Australian living in Canada , and remarried . So we moved to Australia in 1972 . Another big lifestyle change . This is a truly miraculous planet we live on . All of my life , I have held onto that boyhood wonderment , of exploring and studying nature outdoors . I feel a most wonderful connection , and a part of , all of Creation . I feel my heritage , connecting me , with all of my family members , our Vertebrate Family and Mammal Family , It is a most wonderful sense of belonging . I am a member of our small town congregation here in Australia , and I try to attend interfaith gatherings whenever there is an opportunity to . Spiritual folks are some of the finest members of our communities . I hope that these comments are read , with the intention towards building harmony , and peace and prosperity through unity , that the comments are written . From my heart , sincerely Ron .
