why do so many people rush towards a black and white, dichotomous culture?
spiritual-not spiritual
sedentary-active
living in the past-living in the present-living in the future
culture is bad-culture is good
etc.
what would life look life if we didn't see things so black and white? what if everything was seen as spiritual, what if our schedules allowed our normal lives to sufficiently incorporate activity naturally, what if we lived in the past present and future simultaneously, what culture wasn't bad or good but just was and our job was to view it the best we could? and why are Christians the worst offenders at living lives that strive to be so absolutist when Jesus seemed to try to use everything around him as best He could? how would that affect our lives and our goals, our hope and our purpose?

I absolutely LOVE what you're saying here. Oh gosh, we need to hang out.
PS, I just accepted the position at Oasis, so I'll probs be in Pasadena more often now, for reals this time. I think we're looking at Friday's mostly, so I'll let you know when I'm around. See you manana! Keep writing, it's good stuff!
