Radical greens have no problem accepting as "natural" the slaughter of a person by a grizzly bear, but stamp a "criminal" label on a person who kills a grizzly that threatens his life or property.

 Thomas Hill Green
Green holds that “by reason, in the practical sense, [is meant] the capacity on the part of [the individual] to conceive of a better state of [himself] as an end to be attained by action” (PE 177).
Green attacks the view that there are moral rights which people possess merely as individuals: that is, moral rights which they possess without reference to their existence as members of a society founded on a common purpose.
Green extends this argument to claim that, by virtue of his possession of rights within a particular society, the individual has the right to non-interference from all members of all societies (to the extent that he recognises their rights to non-interference).

 Review of Alberto R. W. Green, The Storm-God in the Ancient Near East
First, Green seeks to isolate the ideological and social functions of the storm-god and his attendants in each of the region’s cultural contexts.
For example, he notes of Mesopotamia on page 11 that, “The ecological and topographical differences between the hilly north and the flat riverine south were responsible for the development of different patterns of thought.” The careful effort to note such variation is valuable, as are some of his observations on the consequences of these differences.
Green highlights Ninurta’s association with storm imagery, but as Annus point out, it was also Ninurta, in the poem Lugal-e, “who is depicted as the savior of the land from the threatening deluge” (p.

 God   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Pagans oft en choose the archetypal god of the waxing year as patron of all which is new and growing, and the god of the waning year as patron of all which ripens and declines, before the inevitable rebirth.
God In its wide st sense, the origin and root of all that is. Absolute being may be regarde d perhaps as one equivalent expression, but even being itself may be regarde d as a condition or attribute, and beyond it we must therefore postulate be-ness.
Monotheists recognize but one God, conceived as a supreme personality and usually endowe d with attributes pertaining to human personality, this mental image of God therefore being but a reflection of the human mind, with its inherent limitations and biases; yet even monotheists tacitly recognize other gods under the name of natural forces.

God's renewing, creative Spirit is always at work in creation and in us, but Hildegard warned that we may help or hinder the progress of viriditas in our own lives.
The fact that God's green fingers may enable a life to flourish in the most unlikely conditions does not excuse us from seeking favourable, nurturing conditions for growth, when it is in our power to do so.

Al Green can't even visit his local drugstore without some guy showing him baby pictures and confiding that the youngsters were conceived to a soundtrack of his romantic RandB hits.

 Judaism: Seek My Face, Speak My Name: A Contemporary Theology. - book reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
The key problem is that the world and God are identified and that what is, is equated with what should or must be, with a corresponding deemphasis on messianic ethics and personal responsibility, a lack that Green tries powerfully to remedy by obiter dicta on equality, ecology, study, and patience.
Green's doctrine of creation is, as expected, influenced heavily by Kabbalistic notions of tsimtsum and hitpashtut, roughly, the contraction and overflowing of deity to make a world.
In this, Green reveals himself as a quintessential Reconstructionist for whom the whole of (Jewish) existence is (equally?) valuable and persuasive.

I Can't Stop reunites Green-or the Reverend Al Green, as he's known by the congregation of the Full Gospel Tabernacle, the nondenominational Memphis church of which he is ordained pastor-with producer/arranger/co-writer Willie Mitchell, who first signed Green to the Memphis-based Hi label and oversaw the singer's seminal string of '70s smashes.
Although Mitchell returned to produce Green's 1985 gospel effort He Is the Light, I Can't Stop marks the first time the two men have collaborated on an album of secular music in 27 years.
The new disc was recorded at Royal Recording Studios, the same Memphis facility where Green and Mitchell cut their enduring classics, using many of the same musicians and much of the same recording gear.

“GOD’S WORD Translation updates the living words of God to be more accessible to the 21st century believer, just as the King James Version was a breakthrough of understanding for its time.
After extensive study, I am convinced that the GOD'S WORD version is, without exception, the most accurate, easy-to-read version of the Bible available on the face of the earth.
The GOD'S WORD translation has been a key ingredient in our efforts to reach people for whom 'church' itself has been an obstacle to knowing God; many of these same people have been blocked from a relationship with Christ by a misunderstanding that the Bible is boring and irrelevant to them.
