Excerpt from Vision Statement:
Our communities and movements must feel and think and act in order to understand and change the world. We must respond with love and empathy to other's feelings of despair. We must analyze the institutions of death and the path toward life. And we must act to make change happen.
We begin in our own churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, circles to apply the lessons of our traditions to build a religious democratic socialism that can become real. As we learn from these efforts we must move in larger ways, through organized political, social and trade union action, toward creating a world where all of us share in making the great decisions: how to invest the wealth of the world, how to protect the earth and air and water, how to make peace among the peoples, how to guarantee decent jobs at decent pay, how to enable workers to won and control their own places of work, how to create a context in which human beings can feel the wholeness of their own selves and the wholeness of this world which we perceive as holy.
We welcome all who are committed to life, to the life that is destroyed by pollution, starvation, racism, war, nuclear holocaust, to join with us in implementing the essence of all our visions: choose life.
