End of the World?

I am hearing the ever increasing warning by some of our fundamentalist friends that the recent events upon planet earth are but evidence of God having had enough with humankind and is unleashing "His" displeasure in the form of earthquake, wind and flood. Any possibility here? Well, yes...but it isn't God doing something as a conscious act, as we might allow something to irritate us to the point of an unkind action. Remember, our world reflects the consensus consciousness of the human family, and disorder in, disorder out--inharmonious in, inharmonious out. Much like our individual lives manifest our consciousness, so the world becomes a mirror of the preponderant ideas held within the minds of each.

It appears to be a slow learning process that we are in the loop of all things, but be that as it may, our personal responsibility is to be centered in a thought such as "Love is my decision," and let this govern our lives. From this consciousness we will be unerringly led to be in our right and perfect place at the right and perfect time. Everyone has access to this choice, but we cannot make this choice for anyone save ourselves; we cannot fix the world, but we can be part of the solution and not the problem. Are you making love your only decision?

You asked, "Are you making love your only decision?"
I think so. Actually, I am having some trouble with the idea of "making it a decision", because I feel that "love is my nature" and I cannot be anything else or less than I was created. I think that I could possibly "decide" to behave otherwise, but why would I do that.
Again, I am having some trouble with the concept of love being a decision rather than our spiritual inheritance and nature. It would seem that if love is a decision... what are we until we decide? Something other than love? To me the concept of "having to decide to be love" sort of smacks of the fundamentalists' idea of having to be re-born to be a Christian. Weren't we created in the image and likeness of Love/God to begin with?
Just my $0.02 and a contribution to your very fine blog. I think it is so cool that my minister is so hip to technology.
