@CACRadicalGrace @dianabutlerbass 2/ A prophetic question, then. Why was Jesus murdered? Brueggemann: “Jesus was executed because the Empire is scared to death of a neighborly economy.” And the Qu’ran: “And we never sent a warner to a community but its affluent members say, ‘We reject what you were sent with.”

4/ Jesus? Murdered by a religious and political cabal precisely because He insisted on the ultimate veracity of a transformational, as distinct from transactional compass with regard to life itself. What, then, does a functional alternative to power politics effect and require?
