My speelchecker is not worth a flip, sorry

Darrell suggests that  second integrity manifested itself as arrogance. "Born to forge out of the darkest night signs of abundant life!"  was, and still is, about aswering the call to be the People of  God in history or accepting an assignment to be those who care.

Yes " We were going into the world and make the world like us." or that is to say our intent was to make clones of those who care. The fact that some folks got their egos wound up a little too tight did not and does not change the fact that most of us got it right. Whether we were digging wells or working in the kitchen at Kemper, we were all about one thing - bending history.

My only regret is that we could not hang together so that we would all be celebrating the 40 year timeline this year. All we are being offered is a loony event in a monostery outside of Chicago by some folks who have no clue of what we are about. 

About "Bushian thinking", as I think back, I do not remember seeing Bush, or any body around him, at RS-1.  No primary integrity, much less amy secondary integrity, in the whole lot of them. It is clear that they all operate out of a very reduced world view. They certainly never took CS-1 or the Nation/World course.  Bush says he is a Methodist, but apparently has never interiorized any of the basic tents of Methodism.

If Tilllich were still with us, he would tell us that where arrogance abounds, care does much more abound.
