RT @nick_routledge: @stephenproctor @pauljpastor Right on. Likewise, doomer dialectics depicting the ontological tempest, forced or chosen, of an ending, don't cut it. Merton had a way. Our Second Advent, he said, announces "not the last gasp of of exhausted possibilities" but "the definitive birth of a new world creation."

Copy of tweet threat here:

11/ A vision appropriate to our age doesn't emphasize disarray and calamity. Amidst the confusion, constriction, violence and chaos, it powerfully claims and conveys the sense of a positive simultaneity coming into view - the promise and advent of a new, truly transformed world.

12/ Some call it 'Good News.' Here's the Californian, Gary Snyder: "This is a revolution not of guns but of consciousness, won by seizing the key myths, archetypes, ecstasies and eschatologies so that life won't seem worth living unless one is on the transforming energy's side.

12/ How is this new world creation revealed? Through the usual channels? Don't be silly. Elsewhere, in the radical upheaval of prevailing political, economic and social reality, presenting as a global movement to end poverty, injustice and Ecocide, led by the poor.

What is last and final is the blessing of the new creation in which righteousness and justice dwells"; the solidarity of social and planetary renewal; the simultaneity of human and earthly resurrection; 'the best is yet to come.'
