When Evangelists Invite Fascism

Paul Tillich wrote
“nationalism hates and must always hate Judaism and prophetic Christianity.”

When he spoke of nationalistic patriotism
he was thinking of fascism,
as the logical conclusion
of anthropocentrism

More loyal to a specific supremacist space and time
than faithful to polyculturally interdependent history
of love life’s regenerative revolution.

Nationalism too quickly devolves into rivalry
of Win-InCaste v Lose-OutCaste
zero-sum gamesmanship

Elitist triumphalism
of narrow-minded Chosen People
rather than WinAnthro/WinEarth nonzero-sum
cooperative economies
of politically co-empowering organic lovers.

Tillich’s ‘prophetic’ Judeo-Christian
would find U.S. nationalistic evangelism
anti-prophetically unredeeming,
in striking contrast to scripture’s
radical “God is love”
and
“For God so loved the [entire] world”

Is not
In-Caste preserving
“if They win, then We lose”
perpetrating
puppets of monopoly games
playing zero-sum militarized capitalism

Preparing the unenlightened way
toward more viral triumphalistic cults,
explicitly anti-Semitic
and anti-polytheism
and anti-pantheism
and anti-historical-cultural progress
toward health-informed norms
and safe polyamorous values,
so anti-pleasure by root-chakra means
other than,
for reproduction purposes only,
missionary position
manly active penetration
womanly passive reception
heterosexual expression
for married couples only
after the kids are sleeping.

Frustrated “Christian” fundamentalism
is threatened
by faith in multicultural compassion
healthy democracy inviting
hospitality toward strangers,
loving enemies.

An authentically impassioned and joyful
peace-making Christian evangelist
spreads WinAnthro/WinEarth good gospel creation news
through cooperative teaching
while co-empathically listening

Mentoring bodhisattva collaboratives
about how we can grow this compassion species
toward mutual transubstantiating holiness

With resilient transformative thrival skills
and nothing at all to do with lip service
to an “Our Stuff Don’t Stink”
but yours does,
a Chosen People caste-privileged creed.

When non-prophetic evangelists
examined Donald Trump’s pretentions
as U.S. Presidential potential,
and declared his intentions for the patriotic elite as “pure,”
that meant purely demonic WinUs v LoseThem nationalism

Mute about the prophetic Judaism
of the polyamorous Gospels.

Christians, Jews, and those Islamic-terrified,
must comprehend
and resist
and declaim any notion that Republican Nationalist WeWin-SoYouLose ecopolitics
is anything less than anti-Messianic

WeWin-OnlyIf YouAlsoWin,
is co-redemptive,
globally enlightened,
ecologically accurate
compassion eco-politics.

The democratization of world-wide-webbed love
is a huge mystery of peak spiritual experience,
communication for communion,
organic regeneration for sacred reconnecting
again and again and again
Earth’s healthy resilience wins
and also anthropological ‘pure’ pleasure
and ‘loyal’ passioned wealth.

To call the cult of irreligious Win v Lose nationalism
healthy democracy Win/Win patriotism
is to substitute InCaste Evangelism
for blessed are the poor in Spirit
OutCaste Christianity

Monotheistic colonization
is the Way of idolatrous elitism
and the Truth of weaponized fascism

Taking out a Death contract against healthy human nature
to hit absolute zero
bulls-eye
bottom-line
LoseAnthro/LoseEarth absence of love life’s potential

Promising to anti-prophetically gloat
about absent-mindedly fiddling about
while Earth burns

Anthropocentric hubris
sin
missing the mark,
preparing a vast anti-all-Others absence of love
for continuing richly polycultural climates
of future generation health,
by denying
ignoring
neglecting
abusing
degenerating climate pathologies.

If you are familiar with the Wharton School,
as is Donald Trump
and his considerably too-gluttonous billionaire CEO companions,
then you would probably know
you can slap a lipstick index
of economic resilience
on a chauvinistic pig
in an elitist Winner-Take-All partisan pen,
but it will not really look
or work any better,
and certainly won’t taste
or smell any healthier
or purer
or feel more loyal,
or even tangentially patriotic,
in anthropologically prophetic hindsight.

Neglecting Top v Bottom Lines

I worry we co-invest in big private and public corporate assault
on Earth,
on environmentalism,
on longer-term ecologic
and ecotherapy.

Really, honey?
That’s too bad.
Why not also see long-term assault
as the unintended outcome of short-term neglect
to give cooperative win/win care,
health nurturing behavior,
Golden Rule empowering economics,
like we learned in Sunday School stewardship class?

Well, yes, I guess I can see that.
And yet, responsibility for dispassionate neglect
is not the accountability I seek
for assault on climate health

Multicultural landscapes of regenerative, rather than degenerative, potential,
slow-grown compassion fertility,
organically resilient,
full color octaves of strong-hued eloquence,
resonance for future Earth reweaving regenerators.

I wonder if it helps
to remember that assault derives from learned fear-mongering critical-event behavior,
while neglect speaks to more chronically anxious systems
of over-investment in short-term corporal and corporate ego-inflation,
rather than short-through-long-term
mental/physical
ego/eco
inside/outside
bicameral/bilateral
regenerative therapeutic balance?

Win+Win thriving regeneration
health-care targets
big ego-corporate’s Win v Lose survivalist degeneration.

I think you give sins of anthropocentrism too much evil conspiracy credit
and not enough human neglect
of long-term ecological reward anticipation credit.
When positive growth
is measured only in producing accumulation of human wealth
for investors, taxpayers and shareholders,
without any thought to quantities of resources consumed
in exchange for this production,
this feeds further disvaluing neglect
of investment in caregiving and receiving
long-term consuming and producing
cooperative win/win woke up fullness.

You are reminding me
of all the corporations I have ever known
with four-generation Mission Statements
about their corporate Original Intent,
yet, at best, four-quarter profit-making projections,
positive budgetary outcome
wish lists.

And then, too,
we have the four-generation campaign promises
derived from public corporate officials’ ReGenerative Constitutional Intent,
yet, at best, a 6-year re-election cycle,
and more likely 4-year,
or even just 2.

Yes, we do seem to have a degenerative tension
between the post-revolutionary Constitution’s Original Intent
to keep this democratizing revolution going,
for cooperating with the healthy wealth of Earth
and our nation-state neighbors,
as diplomatically and economically possible,
and within our own multiculturing liberties and justices,
peaceful compassions and pleasures
re-acclimating
anticipation of bountiful peace
into diminished restraining tolerance
of un-ecological risk denial

Traumatizing dissociations
organic life-systems could never nutritionally celebrate,
tearing families from their homes,
children from their terrorizing/terrorized parents,
young adults from their malnourished
self-medicating
Defense Business As Competitively Usual

In neighborhoods
of not so neighborly
systemic trauma environments.

Democratizing embodied Constitutions
co-arise economic health
and political wealth

A healthcare ethos
human history could not engage,
much less sustain,
without the compassionately pleasing Other

Where sacred EarthTribe co-investment
in expansive democratization,
mental/physical healthcare maturation,
mutual acclimation,
creolization of Elite with NonElite co-passion

Are drawn with loops and poignant pointing dots
of periods and episodic commas

Deriving objectives for Earth’s co-arising health
and fertile wealthy prosperity

Rich iconic compost
for producing cooperative economic climates,
health empowering landscapes
less likely to neglect ecological values
when drawing economic corporate wisdom’s
co-operative
co-gravitating
co-passioning original
top and bottom encircling
co-spiraling lines.

Privileged Choice ValentineVoice

My problems
include discomfort
with Money overwhelmingly talks
and talks
and talks political privilege

When not monopolistically
monotheistically
monoculturally screaming
about short-term survival issues,
international violation
of national resource systemic tissues,
long root ego-systemic win/lose fissures.

My Here/Now bigger
eco-empowering global system
concern,
our patriarchally uncivil
red-winged capitalist
runaway extractionist
EarthMother-rapist
climatic issue,

Suffering,
sense of epic historical
left and right winged cooperative loss,

Money’s monopolistic verbing Voice
thereby unilaterally revaluing
safe EarthSurvival choice
in Her claustrophobic
polluted
soul starved
dehydrating
degenerating sacred Chamber
of my own monotheistic wombed
LeftBrain-ranting mind,

Thinking about safe short-term survival
when we would be more prudent
to cooperatively feel reassured
about our long-term global win/win
thrival of love-life on Earth–
including my own EgoIdentity

Which would not silence money’s multi-polyenculturing
co-invested Voice,
empowering healthy democratizing influence
on health and safety EarthChange Choice,

Better
in a lower
and more resonant tone of resource key
for worshiping all EarthTribe Lives
copresent Here with Now

Also with those sacredly curious compassions before
and those naturally recycling nonviolent communions
yet to offer sufficient silence

So I might more actively hope to hear
our more cooperative
globally unmonetized thrival Voice
for restoring health wealthy climates
of green
HereNow
peace-graced Choice
through EarthTribe joyful justice.
