To my sisters,
and narrow-way brothers,
in Jesus Christ
as Supreme U.S. Savior,
I reached U.S. voting age during the 70s.
During this time,
the Religious Right
and Republican Party Center
were about the same place;
not distinguishable,
inscrutable, perhaps.
In strong conserving defense of retail-commodified AntiChrist,
yet wrapped in Fundamentally-Wrong Christian
and Way-Not-True Roman Catholic Orthodox
Never-Even-Think-About-Change-Or-Evolution as Co-Relational Tradition,
(although what on Earth do you think was on Jesus’ mind
having been brought up to be a good Jewish Orthodox boy,
with regard to the change/not-change Tradition dilemma?)
Religious Republicans described Feminists,
GLBTQ Civil Rights,
and Earth and Immigrant CommonRights Advocates,
as leaders of an increasingly powerful godless, immoral,
relativistic derailing system.
Economists and Politicians and Ecologists and Therapists
who supported ubiquitous freedom toward integrity
and freedom from dominating GodLust Exegesis of Orthodox ReGenerativity,
were leading us away from your Beacon City of Calvinistic Judgment,
supremely sitting as WinLose King of the otherwise blotted
blighted Hill;
a Hill which other Christians still more primally felt
as ecological WinWin Earth’s nurturing network nest.
Or, at least this was the way Conservative Christian consciousness was portrayed,
reflecting back on us and to us by media and academic institutions,
and sometimes heard in our homilies,
yet there is little, if any, economic support for this view
of 1970’s Religious Republicanism.
Could it be,
I wonder,
our cultural historians,
talk show pundits,
and our own clergy,
often misunderstood our Religious Right’s Republican Center
in a Holy Spirit of ecological, primal co-redemptive relationalism,
misunderstood as mere secular relativism,
more accurately exegeted as One Body of EnSpirited Christ,
both Patriarchal and Matriarchal,
both Conserving DNA-encrypted Tradition
and Nurturing Nutritional-EcoRelational Integrity,
but each primally,
originally,
embryonically virgin-wombed
within Earth’s nurturing compost
of Matriarchal-CoOperative EcoPolitics;
Mother’s Milky Sacred ReGenerative BeComing.
A U.S. history,
or any history,
of ecopolitical revolutions
is also a continuing teleological story
of religion’s embryonic through millennial phylogeny,
maturation of ecological democratic evolution.
The Christian Right reformed both Republicanism
and U.S. Christian belief systems
to fit secular enculturing beliefs,
rather than noticing the richer civil, Earth, and immigrant nurturing opportunities side
of Christ’s bicameral humane-divine Body,
speaking about how uniting the nations of both Americas
with all the integral-healthing nations of Earth
could be revolutionary change
led by true Orthodox and Beautifully Beloved Communities,
ecological,
ecosystemic,
ecopolitical Christians in solidarity with all EarthTribe Others.
Throughout the 70s,
a majority of Christian Republican women,
and a large minority of Christian Republican men,
usually did not miss opportunities to support
universal civil and Earth rights
and integrative, nurturing compassion for Sojourners
at the margins and borders of our international health as wealth economy.
This continues to this day.
Most lay leaders in our Christian churches,
black and white,
occasionally even black and white and Hispanic and Other together,
are Christian women and Other
who know in our reborn again Holy EnSpirited Hearts
that Jesus of Nazareth
was the First among CoMessianic nurturing,
ecological,
ecopolitical equals,
to carry Earth’s regeneratively compassionate love in our guts,
as Earth has given rise to Religious Right Republicans,
deep heart-learning centered,
agapic-erotic integrative,
healthy humane-divine Left-Right us,
embodied Holy Spirits,
CoMessiahs of love’s polypathy
co-mentoring nutritional wisdom
speaking ecological narrative,
after listening ecosystemic regenerative.
If we are reborn through co-empathic belief
in a shared Commons-Holy Enspirited
wombed Body of Christ,
then we are of Virgin (0)-sum ecopolitical rebirth
and, if so,
we are transgenderally originally regeneratively recreated
for optimizing ecopolitical healthy wealth abundance
of nurturing love fertility and beauty
and goodness through polypathic nutritional integrity.
One dimensional bilateral erotic biological climax time
is also four dimensional transubstantiating agapic-ecological spacetime.
Each Christian Ego had to begin somewhere, sometime.
It is our shared embryonic polypathic experience
and faith
and belief
and truth
and empathic trust
this spacetime is both Alpha Yang Erotic
and Omega Yin Agapic,
timeless West-East
Nature-Spiritual
nondual co-arising
Ego/Eco-Logical Wisdom.
At least,
so it seems within this regeneratively evolving,
but also degeneratively devolving,
bicameral conserving-integrating
Left-Right mindbody
of Christ’s Co-Empathic Climate of Trust.
