I believe it is possible and desirable to build a Christian polity even in this day and age. If a sufficient number of volunteers can be found to get such a project off the ground, I will give it my all. However, it must never be an attempt to impose our convictions on those who think or believe differently. Rather, I envision building a Christian civilization from scratch in an uninhabited area - as a beacon from which the light of the world can shine far and wide. A city on a mountain in biblical parlance.

"A Slow Green Sleep takes the long view: from the prehistoric through the human historic and on to the posthistoric. Voices speak out of fresh and ancient graves, from the recent and distant pasts, and from some possible and probable futures. Will the human experiment fail, or change? Can we stop loving 'the wrongest things,' finding beauty instead in self-effacement and the certainty that the earth will live on without us? Can we come to consider other people, and our nonhuman others, as equal in importance to ourselves? The poems in A Slow Green Sleep use various formal strategies to make resting places where one can embrace how the world is with us today, and how it will be hereafter."--Provided by publishe
