What we’re about
CHURCH OF THE SYNTHESIS
Is it time to try to take the best of all the religions while still maintaining complete respect for the sovereign versions of them? They all have so much to offer but religions in general have been so very divisive over the centuries. Some of us are just too offended by all of that destructive conflict. Here we will try, together, to find a way to pick out the best of the faith traditions to bring out the best in us. Is true spirituality a unifying experience? There are already many processes going on around the world to heal some of these volatile differences in belief systems. This is one more. You can use COTS to strengthen your existing belief or as an aid for daily living on its own. There have been times when all major religions co-existed side by side.
Some other beginning ideas:
> > Synthesizing the best ideas in faith traditions; it would go well beyond the Golden Rule.
> > Synthesizing the natural with the artificial.
> > Synthesizing the individual with the collective.
> > Synthesizing joy with discipline.
> > The Listening Church; have we lost the capacity to listen to anything at all? A spiritual dialogue is authentic expression & authentic listening.
> > Synthesizing mind, heart, body, soul. What did you say the soul was, again?
> > What should a church be? What should Sunday school be?
> > Over time, hopefully, a hybrid group
