the work is not done and must be continued (theme one)

1. The work is not done and must be continued if we are to grow in our Unitarian Universalist faith because JTW is the only thing that might save our relevance:
• It grows out of the history of our movment and our continued discomfort with issues of race and class.
• We cannot be who we aspire to be without it
• The demographics of our nation are changing-- negotiating identity in a multicultural world is critical today & tomorrow
• Our youth expect it and are leading the charge. Many will not stay if it is not done Many will not return without it.
• It provides another entry point for building a common theology

Well in the work is not done and must be started category. . .

In light of UUA President Rev. William G. Sinkford's Holiday Message of December 13th, 2006 the following email was just sent to UUA President William G. Sinkford aka Rev. Bill Sinkford by Robin Edgar aka The Emerson Avenger. It will be most interesting to see how President Sinkford responds to it or indeed *if* President Sinkford responds to it.
