If John 3:16 is read as,
For God so loved Earth
that S/he gave up Her only beloved Child,
so all future regenerations
with divinely inspired faith
might have eternal love lives
it doesn’t feel quite right.
It doesn’t sound like love,
nor omnipotently benign,
and echoes with justification for wars
and death
and loss
and suffering,
all beginning to smell
like unfettered senseless abortions
of Earth’s full regenerative potential.
Why does changing to a cobinary consciousness
have this more inclusive effect on how we see
economies of cooperative redemption?
relentlessly consistent with political empowerment
that does not include degenerative disempowering
Win later by Lose now
short-term dis-investment strategies.
Why is it OK for fathers to give up their sons
for redemptively justified wars
as if we were just paying a deadly
deeply wounding surtax
but if mothers give up their children
for peaceful and/or therapeutic purposes
some of us call it unjustified abortion?
Why is it not OK for a sacred EarthMother
to sacrifice the health of a beloved infant today
on behalf of a wealthier life for self and others tomorrow
but maybe it is justified
for God the Father
to religiously invest in crucifying death
to redeem our more regenerative future?
The science of neuropsychology
appears to also be the still evolving history
of Elder BrainStem
giving up WinMe v LoseThey surviving birth trauma
to grab hold of WinMe + WinWe thriving
bicamerally cerebral cortex
YangCrown-survival + YinRoot-thrival
timeless co-redemptive love life.
Within our sacred organic ecology,
John 3:16 might be historically mapped as,
For 0-sum Win v Lose BrainStem,
so richly composed of Earth’s DNA+RNA Creation Story,
that S/he gave WinRoot birth
to dipolar co-arising WinCrown
AnthroMind + EarthBody
bicamerally co-intelligent
compassion+pleasure
wealth+health optimizing salvation.
A problem for Win v Lose totalitarianism
is that, Win or Lose,
eventually even the most Central Committee or Cabinet or Cortex
becomes rabid with paranoid survivalist flames
of anthropocentric supremacy
or slowly dies from LoseAnthroCulture-LoseEarthClimate
starvation
through corrupt hoarding for us
necessitating unredeeming abortion of Them
Trying to fool all the not caste-privileged people,
all the aborted future generations of time
Elder BrainStem survivalists
are willing to sacrifice Other’s sons and daughters
in our eco-political Win v Lose strategies
of neurosystemically traumatizing violence.
While God is peacefully loving
all our polyculturally enriched World,
our sanctified caste-defensive navel-gazing
grows anthropocentric EarthTribe disempowerment,
cancerously unenlightened monopolistic hubris
without Ego+Eco worldwide loving co-redemption.
Reptilian Win v Lose survivalist BrainStem
preys and extracts

short-sighted thinking
we are justified owners
gods and goddesses
kings and queens
sacrificing our living organic EarthHome
in response to self-inflicted crisis
While Win+Win thriving cerebral cortex
soars with global opportunity
through long-term multiculturally regenerative design and planning,
extending compassion’s long-term pleasure for future generations
And yet also slogs on
engaging further Business as Competitive Win v Lose Survival,
through OldBrain trauma memories
monitoring defense against unnecessary risk
of loss and suffering
without eternally felt monotheistic trust
Synaptic anti-pathic distrust
of threats to personal health
and environmental safety,
including beloved begotten children.
Each humane god/dess
so beloving polycultural health
and regenerative climate safety
that we forgive nationalistic evangelical

Earth-future aborters
For not choosing eternally compassionate
