Thank you so much, Rev. Jim, for writing this utterly cogent essay, with its specific recommendations / challenges. As the compiler of a vast site on mystical-sagely spirituality (www.enlightened-spirituality.org) i always try to remind everyone of the crucial, immense importance of combining that with ENGAGED SPIRITUALITY. For the Torah and Jesus gave us two great commandments, not only to Love God with all our heart, mind, soul and strength, but also to LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF (the omnipresent Divine "I AM" Self).

Jim, in this field of engaged spirituality you've always been one of my great heroes. May your voice reach many millions in spreading the "God's politics / policies / ways" of true loving kindness, empathetic compassion, and the other bountiful virtues of real holiness / wholeness.

God bless you and everyone always....

I have been waiting for someone to publicly and directly call out these people and their actions. Most writers are unwilling or unable to do so but because of this, the people keep pressing onward. I do not recognize my country today and am horrified by what is being said and done under the guise of being a ‘Christian.’ Dear God, can you ever forgive us? It is heartbreaking.

Before you deride Fox News, I suggest you clean up MSNBC
