Jubilee: The Emancipation of Life and Love is a narrative modeled on sacred texts, creation stories, and prophetic works. It centers on three primary themes: Life is continuity in the midst of change, not a competition; Everything has been freely given to be equally shared by all; and Love is as abundant as sunlight, gravity, and air. Jubilee is the story of the story we are living out. It integrates scientific descriptions of the origins of the universe and the cooperative processes of life on Earth. It describes the harnessing of fire and language, of agriculture and imagination, of emotions, intelligence, and empathy. It also describes the origins of the ideas which have led to social and economic inequality and environmental catastrophe. It reconciles with local, voluntary practices in our community to restore our connections to our neighbors, the other inhabitants with whom we share this home, and the systems which sustains us all.
