Counting to One: Our Common Story (ID #006)
Date (duration): 5/16/2008 to 5/22/2008 (1 week)
Host: Kern Beare
Topic:

Description: We humans are highly diverse. But we are also intimately connected. We are one species; we are all part of, and dependent upon, one Earth; and we are all products of the same awesome evolutionary journey.

In this conversation, we explore together the significance of our common story -- from the initial “flaring forth” of the universe up to our present moment -- and explore what it tells us about what it means to be “one.”
Actions:  
  1. Introduce yourself to the other participants and share what draws you to this conversation.
  2. During the week, find time to watch these three short (8-10 minute) videos: "Who am I? Birth the Earth " "Who am I? Earth to Life " and "Who am I? Life to Human ."
  3. What are your thoughts about:
    What it means to be “one”
    What it means to be human
