Footprints of Adam and Eve (Paperback)

For almost fifty years I have been working to help make this a more just world. I have read many treatises and books. I have been involved in political activity to try and create a more just world. I have worked with many different and divergent groups. Only in the last few months have I begun to hear that any successful endeavor must include a strong spiritual element. This book is an attempt to merge the two elements of social justice and our own spirituality as humans. It begins by looking at the biblical accounts of mankind's original sin and the consequences of that sin. Much of the biblical accounts look at the reaction of God. This account centers on the actions of mankind and their consequences. The focus then shifts to some of the deeper consequences of human sin portrayed as the footprints of Adam and Eve on this earth. (See picture at the end of the book). The book ends with a poem written by the author. He attempts to illustrate that we are redeemed from original sin not by eliminating it but reaching out to those who are the greatest victims of that sin. The book starts with a prologue entitled "The Footprints of Adam and Eve." It then looks at contemporary Footprints of Adam and Eve such as widespread resistance to change, an ever increasing debt, the failure of banks, a huge corporation which owns at least 5% of almost half of the large corporations in the USA, the move to create more energy. All these symptoms are caused by greed. The final chapter is entitled "We Need A New Set of Footprints." It looks at some alternatives that ordinary people are using today to help correct our failures. The book ends with a poem composed by the author entitled "Finding the Footprints of God." A concluding picture shows the earth with human footprints on it and asks: "What Footprints Are You Leaving on Earth?"
