Chaos and Unity ( response to email cont. )
My friend who emailed me about chaos and unity, see the note in the email to a friend, sites Jean Luc Nancy in his description of chaos over unity... I've skimmed the article and wish to really sit with it... but right off the bat... Quaker unity is not about conformity to each other, it is rather unity in accepting our differences, and the problem arises when Friends so look at the conflict that divides them that they loose all sight and hope of Quaker unity, they deny the basic reason we are Friends. We are not Quakers to walk in lock step, we are Quakers to walk together in love. More on this when I can figure out how to print and read this friend's article
