| Even when they call us mad, when they call us subversives and communists and all the epithets they put on us, we know we only preach the subversive witness of the Beatitdues, which have turned everything upside down —Oscar Romero

Revolution is an often abused term - banks regularly use it to describe their ATM cards and the fashion industry use it to
describe the latest fad that will go out of style in 3 months. However, revolution is what the Gospel demands of us:
nothing less than a complete change of allegiance from passively or actively supporting oppression to working for liberation
and respect for all life in Creation. In our second conference on Christianity and Anarchism, Jesus Radicals hopes to respond to the
challenge of being rebels in a world that does not know peace, justice or the God that created it.
Through lectures, discussions and table fellowship (eating together)
we will explore what resources we have to become a people able to
build a social body capable of not only resisting the powers, but
also capable of being a rival, distinct social body that invites everyone
to join with us. |
