Unity has to be within and at the initiation and ongoing management of God, or
it's just not legitimate!

cases-in-point:

1) In the beginning there was God (we understand that to mean there was ONLY
God)

   Thus, there was a perfect unity, yet God saw fit to pull Himself back and
   create "otherness"

2) Tower of Babel

   There was a unity of language and culture -- God saw fit to disrupt it.

3) Nation of Israel

   When it was solidly unified, God saw fit to separate them and disperse them.

4) Catholic/Christian Church

   When it was unified (Greek & Roman (aka East & West), God saw
fit to inspire
   a man(Luther) with writings to lead to an utter disruption of the heretofore
   ONE global Church.

5) Entropy

   It seems pretty plain that entropy is an inherent part of the universe and
   all its laws of thermodynamics.

Ergo, with the knowledge that change isn't only inevitable, but NECESSARY for
any system's successful efficacy & efficiency, it would seem obvious that the
intent is for us to work within a system of disrupted one-ness as a proving
ground and growth process to prepare us for a future PERFECT Unity -- not that
we should blindly ACCEPT all disruption(eg. Disease) but that we need to work
WITH it and identify that which is critical and within our domain to correct,
and blend out THOSE bumps in the potential smoothness of a unified circle of
humanity/earth/universe/etc.!

Well, now I've stated my thoughts/opinions, now it's YOUR(and/or anyone
else) to jump in and share what YOU have to add to this thread. . . :)
All are welcome! It's PUBLIC, people! Let's have fun with it so that we
ALL are edified! :)
