@AimeTim 4/ The web of life is a food web. As such, the reinhabitory foodshed movement defines the leading edge of a planetary reconciliation in which faithful aspiration toward personal, corporate, earthly and cosmic harmony coalesces in a simultaneity of human and earthly resurrection.

Incarnational theology? A half-way house. What remains is to co-create the New World. Moltmann: "The reconciliation of the world is the promise of the new creation of all things, and the new creation is the fulfillment of the reconciliation of the world."

@Eternally1776 @TaraAnnThieke Beautifully stated. I'm also reminded of Rilke's, "Somewhere there is an ancient enmity between our daily life and the great work", the spirited call to functionally resacralize the fullness of our days and, therefore, our whole world, as a substratively regenerative encounter.

N. O. Brown: “To find meaning is to find work. In alchemy, the Great Work of Transformation; transform the nature of work. Labor is fertility. Instead of Gross Natural Product, reproduction. Reproduction of the eternal earth. Ecology instead of economy.”

·
Brown: “And labor to be an act of love. Homo laborans, man in labor, is man amans amare, in love with loving, and seeking an object for his love. Return culture to the root; rediscover our roots, the radicalism. The Garden Project.”

·
N. O. Brown: “Laborare est orare, to labor is to pray. Overcoming the distinction between the active and the contemplative. Overcoming the distinction between works and grace. The Garden Project.” The heaven of earth, made Real. The Third Way.

Quoted by@HaddenTurner @affinitytalks 15/ We are in the world, not above it. Raising food forces participation into the open. Seeds don’t negotiate; soil doesn’t flatter; rain comes or it doesn’t. Ecological agriculture is where work either aligns with creation’s grain or it doesn’t—and where we meet answerability.Quoted by@SherPoint end/ What if the Final Word amounts to a speech act owing its inclusivity precisely to its *planetary* reconciliatory character? To our active participation in a dynamic earthly and human solidarity transcending secular and religious limits? To the saving grace of a fresh start?
