I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

We need to see more courage like this from the pulpit, from the bima, from the minbar. Religious leaders are trusted voices. May more of them use them for good.
