In a world with so much hatred and violence, We need a religion that proclaims the inherent worth and dignity of every person.In a world with so much brutality and fear, We need a religion that seeks justice, equity, and compassion in human relations. In a world with so many persons abused and neglected, We need a religion that calls us to accept one another and encourage one another to spiritual growth. In a world with so much dogmatism and falsehood, We need a religion that challenges us to a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. In a world with so much tyranny and oppression, We need a religion that affirms the right of conscience and the use of the democratic process.In a world with so much inequality and strife, We need a religion that strives toward the goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all. In a world with so much environmental degradation, We need a religion that advocates respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.In a world with so much uncertainty and despair, We need a religion that teaches our hearts to hope and our hands to serve.
