Every aspect of our lives, as individuals and as networks of families, communities, and nations is meaningful, purposeful, and valuable despite every fearsome appearance to the contrary.
The intimidation of death is humanity’s only true adversary and the wedge that would divide us one from another.
While I come to this place as a Christian, others come to it from other faiths and from other, secular, ideologies.
For purposes of citizenship, it does not matter.
It only matters that we see the other as an adversary rather than an enemy and that we hopefully embrace the positive meaning, purpose, and value of life against a nihilistic anti-ideology based in hopelessness and death.
