Moral Environment
I have been inspired! Some weeks ago our local church was visited by a United Reform Church vicar, Jim Brown, and he gave a sermon that encapsulated what Yourtomorrow was about (http://www.yourtomorrow.co.uk/) . He said that we should not just be concentrating on the physical envronment, recycling, reducing our energy consumption, and travelling fewer miles. Additionally, in order to build a better world, what we needed to do was to improve the moral environment. That is exactly what I believe in! In order to make the world a better place we need to concentrate, not just on the physical, but also on the spiritual! He put it this way, we should not just focus on our heads, but also on our hearts. This does not mean that we have to be religious, or even follow a particular faith. We just need to concentrate on working together, resolving our difficulties, ensuring that we all get an equal chance and can express ourselves according to our beliefs. Let's stop arguing, focussing on our differences and trying to be better than one another. Let's work together to build a better world. His line, that might have been taken from the website, is "We need to act together if we're to change the world". I agree Jim!!!
I was so impressed that I asked for his text and now the sermon appears in our Features section of our website on the following page http://www.yourtomorrow.co.uk/kbase_category/13.php . Go and read it and see if you do not agree, even if you do not accept the "churchy" bits! I also owe tremendous thanks to Jim Brown for allowing me to put his thoughts onto the website; he did not have to and could easily have found an excuse!
