I'm a great believer in dreams and ambitions. I believe God is good, and therefore wants the best for us, in this world as well as the next. If the best we can conceive is a perfect world - Utopia - then that must be where God's plan finds it's eventual fulfillment. For me, that means cherishing each other, and cherishing creation, in the same way God cherishes us.
Specifically, it means valuing, nourishing, nurturing and encouraging each individual to develop into the fullness of their potential, without regard to sex, race, politics, religion, colour, bank balance, class, sexuality or nationality. I believe an enlightened Christianity to be an asset for this ambition. I think that by building Utopia for each other, rather than for ourselves, humanity will eventually get pretty close to the ideal - and moreover, grow the kind of individuals that will populate heaven.
I wonder, what is your definition of Utopia, and what contribution to it might Christianity make?
Best wishes, 2ndRateMind.
