Alright Jim, you seem to be serious about this question thing, so I'll give you the question that I feel is THE question.
Given the stance that "History rides on the back of the religious" that we embodied and lived..... "Who are the 'religious' today, where would you look to find them, what are the marks that tell you so, and what might we share (and how) with them so that they are empowered and connected?"

Thanks for this Forbes article, Steve.  I observe 
myself and others needing, and having the opportunity to, re-find our 
"calling".  This happens often as circumstances change - health, 
economic resources, people dying, new friends, new ideas, 
communities/institutions dying,  communities/institutions showing 
signs of new life, etc. .  And the more I am sensitive to the nuances of my 
situation, the more I realize that there are open doors in even the most 
restrictive situations (The Future Is Open) - so circumstances are always 
changing, at least somewhat.  
 
In Forbes, such a dollar oriented publication, 
this author uses the word "calling" - that comes from a religious tradition - 
our human concept of who God is * 
 "calling" us to know-do-be something.  She makes good 
points - including taking the long view (what does the future require?).  
But "following your dreams" doesn't quite cut it as a total substitute for using 
what you have to serve the needs of the universe.
 
In this 50th year of EI/ICA, some of the questions to 
live with:  Considering what we were/are/might be, what is our 
calling?  What are we called to know/do/be?  What are some of the 
important partnerships the future needs?

* Just back from a 
great week at Chautauqua with M-F talks by John Shelby Spong.  Thus the 
"human concept of God" as a foundation for approaching the Bible, theology, 
the depth and openness of life.
