"Towards Full Presence"
This one is for folks of the humanist & Christian persuasions.
I haven't done a big-tent humanist piece for #OnlySky in a bit, but I'll be reflecting soon on this excellent document out of the Vatican last month, on building better cultures of fraternity online.
Our cosmologies differ, but secular & religious humanists share common ground in trying to use human agency to build a better world.
(News piece today, though.)

"50) In the digital crossroads being “Christian” is not enough. It is possible to find many profiles or accounts on social media that proclaim religious content but do not engage in relational dynamics in a faithful way.
Hostile interactions and violent, degrading words, especially in the context of sharing Christian content, cry out from the screen and are a contradiction to the Gospel itself."
an important corrective that i'm afraid will be ignored and even reviled by some.
