The current economic, social and political trends are threatening to change the view that Christianity has given people towards life. There are several questions that people need to ask themselves, such as does the current organization of the society promote equality? Theology forums have a responsibility to shape the world. The current trends leave many to wonder if this is how God wants the society to be organized.
When the politically and economically powerful address people they shape their minds in a way that shapes them to view those that contribute more to production as more important. They make us imagine of a future where power will be vested in the simple elite and the minority in the society will be barely recognized. It makes people visualize a society that is fast expanding with more competition but bigger gap between the rich and the poor.
Theology has the power to counter these ideologies and fight for the many with small voices in the community. If the trend goes on minority will have no say in the community. There is also a possibility that they will not be involved in decision making processes. The result will be the human right will be no longer respected and human dignity eroded making the meaning of life be altered.
These upcoming way of life and ideologies need to be challenged if we have to save the future. Christianity is against divisions and we should all seek to eliminate them. It is vital that we ensure a balance even as nations struggle to achieve their values, goals and priorities.
There is need for change in the world. Its values and goals should move towards qualitative rather than quantitative interpersonal from personal. We should lay more emphasizes on real needs and aspirations of the people. We need the community to focus on maintaining a balance in their relationships with people, God and the environment.
Every nation is at a moment change. The human history and race is faced with the challenge of making choices about the future. Currently Ireland is focusing on a new journey where it is faced with choices that must be made. These moments are vital and we need to participate in them. The gospel encourages people to be involved in shaping a future.
Ireland is nation that gives us a good view of a threatened future. The nation has gone through social, political and economic progress but is still threatened by social inequality. The divisions in the society continue to increase and the gaps between the rich and the poor is growing wider.
It is evident that if a nation puts efforts to achieve its goals without considering the values that should be maintained it can lead to greater problems. From Ireland it is evident that economic growth can result to greater divisions if it is not handled properly. Lack of involvement of religious groups and all people in decision making can lead to vulnerability of the disadvantaged groups in the society. Religious groups and forums have a mandate to check on this.
