EARTHKEEPING NEWS A NEWSLETTER OF THE NORTH AMERICAN COALITION FOR CHRISTIANITY AND ECOLOGY Volume Three, Number One September/October 1993 NEW JOURNAL HAS REFRESHING APPROACH — HUMILITY THEOLOGY "The world of the late twentieth century has changed dramatically from the one we knew just a few decades ago . . . We are discovering an exciting world in dynamic flux, an unexpected universe whose mechanisms are ever more baffling and staggering in their beauty and complexity; where predictability is uncertain; where matter and energy are interchangeable; and where evolutionary change occurs by leaps and bounds which defy simple explanation. . . . "There needs to be determined effort to bring our society to a personal confrontation with its own limitations and the deeper meaning of the universe and its place in it . . . Our mutual inter-dependence with the rest of nature is becoming more apparent. And too, the enormity of the universe and our ignorance about most of it should help us to broaden our viewpoint about God's plans and purposes."
