I am reblogging this post on Teilhard de Chardin. I disagree with some of the preliminary comments but I agree with the central premise on Teilhard de Chardin’s belief of the necessity of unconditional love as a key turning point in human evolution.

Thank you.
Thank you Geralyn. Hope all is well.

Peace,

Ken:

Selfless love is in the centre of everything; however, in my humanity I am imperfect.

It is humbling to recognize Christ. What a challenge! Thank you for this post.
Lynda:
Thank you so much for the beautiful comment. It provides us with a lot to reflect on. I especially like the extension of the energy of love to every atom of creation.
Peace,
