Reorienting the World
February 1st

Thank Heaven for Moral Relativism
Because we are humans, we live in a human-sized scale model of the universe. Because we encounter the world through our minds, we try to fit it all into our model, into our minds. It doesn’t fit. Let’s try
another perspective. Let’s get reoriented.
​The Ten Commandments are back in the news, thanks to the Texas Legislature. Steve Brooks deconstructs them to offer a fresh take on morality and its supposed opposite: moral relativism. He shows how relativism can be a source of human progress, and how the key moral question is not, “Who is my God?” but “Who are my relatives?” Want to take the M-word back from the immoral minority? Here’s a way to start.

​There’s an old joke, “If you see a fork in the road, take it.” The fork represents the uncertainty of our lives; seldom entirely sure about the choices we face. What if a good rule of thumb is to make the choice that’s the least convenient rather than the one that appears easiest? In this sermon, I’ll make the case for doing just that.

"I was drawn to this fellowship by the tradition of open discussion, devotion to equality for all, and the concept of individual thought, expression, and search for meaning as detailed in our Values and Aspirations."
