A few interesting things of note….
So I came across this article on the Emergent Village Website… but here is a quote from an interview from Bad Pitt and Bishop Desmond Tutu. Here is the quote:
“The interview starts with Tutu explaining the African concept of ubuntu …
Brad Pitt: “What is this concept of ubuntu I keep reading about?”
Tutu: “Ubuntu is the essence of being human […] we say a person is a person through other persons. You can’t be a human in isolation. You are human only in relationships. […] So we say that ‘I need you to be all of who you are in order for me to be all that I am.’ Because no human being is totally self-sufficient. In fact, a self-sufficient human being is subhuman. […] If you want to be human, we are not going to be able to be human in isolation. It will be that we are human together.””
What are your thoughts on Ubutu? Sounds kind of cool to me!

OK one other thought from my friend Aaron Klienfelter! What do you think about this? Especially when it comes to Th3 Waters?
That We Would Be by Aaron
Love yall, so what do you think?
Don’t know about that but I do know that Ubuntu is a great Linux distribution - you should try it! You can get the Christian version at whatwouldjesusdownload.com
Yeah, I really should try it someday, but until that day i will just enjoy my Mac, heh…. but one of my next projects is to create a Home Theater PC..that runs Linux.
The Mac is not a problem as Ubuntu can be loaded on a mac as well. I have one of those too!! I am planning on doing Eliseo’s as soon as I catch him out of the office lol
I totally agree with the comment. When we disconnect from God, then we begin to disconnect with others. No longer are they our brothers and sisters, but they are only “others” and exist only as distant non human people. This is also the essence of the speaker at the Lay Leadership conference–Ray Buckley, the Indian storyteller.
