RT @nick_routledge: @Plough @eberhard_arnold "So what good is it if from within the church hierarchy they protest isolated incidents that lead to suppression of free speech, brutal murder, and all manner of other horrors, while at the same time supporting the overall application of this evil system?"

Copy of tweet and quote tweet beginning here:

It’s not complicated. Illich: “The ability to disguise sin defines Anti-Christ.” So, final words. “Positions based on both just war theory and the principle of active non-violence” speak to a diabolical false equivalency; the infernal hypocrisy of the good religious war pimp.

1/ 'Wetiko' (Algonquian) is how our First Nations Peoples identify the toxic, all-encompassing enormity of this ancient enslavement and the dollarzombiehood, weaponized, of its commoditized mechanics of persuasion, guilt and punishment. A fix? Planetary prophetology names it. twitter.com/nick_routledge…

@AimeTim @UniteThePoor 3/ This, not some form of cheap universalism, rather a planetary reckoning with a Wholeness transcending supremacist epistemologies and their full-spectrum dominance over the moral and ontological imagination and “the infrastructure of all religions and all cultures.” (Girard)

2/ "It has become almost morally impermissible in Western public debate to focus on the conditions for advantageous short-term peace." Clear enough. Time, then, for a planetary response transcending the ontological substrate of Western triumphalism and the reality it maintains.

Half-assed, any evolutionary perspective which eschews the function of political theology in 'escaping the overwhelming ideological force of claims about the inevitability of 'the catastrophic present' as professional historians @nils_gilman and @moshik_temkin describe it, below.  twitter.com/nick_routledge…

Quoted by@ShaneClaiborne It's not complicated. "It is incredible dishonesty in the human heart to pray daily that this kingdom should come, that God’s will be done on earth as in heaven, and at the same time to deny that Jesus wants this kingdom to be put into practice on earth.” - @RichardRohrOFMQuoted byRT @nick_routledge: @AimeTim 1/ A vision, incomplete. Rohr, then: "In the long run, violence leaves both sides in an endless and impossible cycle that cannot be stopped by itself. Instead, some neutralizing force must be inserted from outside to stop the cycle of violence and point us in a new direction."Quoted by@AimeTim 1/ A vision, incomplete.
