"Religion has a bad name at a broad level; that which was the best thing has become the worst thing." Thus Fr. Richard Rohr begins a remarkable presentation at a Palm Sunday event. "The job description of healthy religion is making one out of two, reconciling everything, that there is one God, on world, and we all are children of God. Everything deserves respect."
We are led to discover the importance of contemplative prayer to overcome the split in our thinking. Richard shows us that life's journey requires faith, which is "not-knowing," yet being happy, experiencing being held. A unitary vision is what enables us to care about others, to do compassionate service and social justice.
