[Oe List ...] Breakfast News Conversations...

[Terry Bergdall via OE]

Attached is the “Liberal Heresy.” It is one of 40+ articles included in the
Annex of the orientation handbook that I recently completed on  “The
Organizational Wisdom of ICA.” It remains a very insightful work. My
investigation into authorship revealed it was created with input from
participants of the Global Research Assembly of 1976 and that the final
draft was written by Desmond Avery. Terry

Also called scripture/news conversations

You remember them right?
random bits of recalled news and then a piece of scriptural wisdom
what to do about it?

These days news like trying to "drink from a fire hose"
My experience now living in the USfA now rather than Costa Rica and
listening to USA media is curious.

Feels to me like a case of news culture ADHD where nothing is
connected to anything except by more and more crisis news events, more
passionate & positional thinking more economic political and cultural
and more and more "news journalists" driving to their bank on the
stream of news.

My friend Jack Gilles, if I quote him right, says ORID conversations
no longer have a "D" now because it it is all interpretation, everyone
has an opinion, everyone is a spectator stuck in the stands watching
an unplayable game.

Now in conversations  is no "D" in ORID, no one knows how to Decide or what
Do.
"D" stands for Dumpster or "Don't decide" or "Despair" or just "Done".

Joe Mathews had a paper, I believe,  which he  called the liberal
heresy - aybe it was the conservative heresy or the reactionary
heresy.
He used some fancy theological terminology like "the  immediacy of the
eschaton" which I never did understand,exactly.
Anyone remember this paper?

Wondering where IS the scripture part, the wisdom part of the
breakfast news conversation?

The Christian Science Monitor says THEY are doing two things...As days
and weeks pass, the media move on to new stories, often neglecting to
tell the “what’s possible?” stories about how the people and
communities affected by these tragedies are coping and what they’re
learning. We hear these types of stories on one-year anniversaries,
but they’re not an ongoing part of the media’s coverage the way that
the “what happened?” stories are. A growing body of research is
confirming what many have long suspected — that a steady diet of
trauma and disaster triggers stress, fear and trauma in those
consuming the stories.

What if the news media covered stories of recovery and resilience as
much as they cover stories about devastation and despair?
