Today's service was led by Jennie Dyster, our Unitarian Church President on February 16th, 2020. The address "Agriculture, Religion and the Environment" was presented by Dr Victor Squires, an Agriculturalist who is also a member of our congregation. Victor commenced with an old Native American saying: “We do not inherit the earth and all its resources from our forebears, we borrow it from our children”. Victor briefly examines environmental wisdoms from various traditional and major religions and contrasts these belief systems with the Judeo - Christian perspective in the Old Testament that viewed the world as unlimited in its capacity to be exploited. Victor challenges us to embrace an 11th Commandment that will ensure sustainable, global, environmental stewardship. Listen on!
