We Need A Religion…
Alexander, Scott W
In a world with so much hatred and violence,
We need a religion that proclaims the inherent worth and dignity of every person.
In a world with so much brutality and fear,
We need a religion that seeks justice, equity, and compassion in human relations.
In a world with so many person abused and neglected,
We need a religion that calls us to accept one another and encourage one another to spiritual growth.
In a world with so much dogmatism and falsehood,
We need a religion that challenges us to a free and responsible search for truth and meaning.
In a world with so much tyranny and oppression,
We need a religion that affirms the right of conscience and the use of the democratic process.
In a world with so much inequality and strife,
We need a religion that strives toward the goal of world . community with peace, liberty, and justice for all.
In a world with so much environmental degradation,
We need a religion that advocated respect for the interdependent of all existence of which we are a part.
In a world with so much uncerainty and despair,
We need a religion that teaches our hearts to hope and our hands to serve.
