Nonprofit Cooperatism

An important truth of non-profit cooperatism, as contrasted with for-profit corporatism, is democratic wisdom of co-investing capital and equity and interdependence, giving from a healthy egalitarian heart is also receiving a wealthier, more resilient, bilateral mind, mind and body fullness, ego- and eco-therapeutic resonance. While true of all non-profit non-competitive economic and democratic cultures, this may be peculiarly enhanced by religious multicultures, interfaith communions of active hope for local, and thereby, emerging global health of nutrition-cultured outcomes. It also seems curious to me that people with disabilities and chronically homeless people, people with significant mental and physical health concerns, are disproportionately aware of mystical correlations between internal and external climate conditions, chaotic and complex, peaceful and resonant, dissonant and confluent. A balmy blue sky day is more likely to evoke joy, Just as cold, damp inside depression political repression social suppression lack of economic impression predict winter's long hibernating darkness. It may be dying and dissonant faith communities, and zealous triumphalistic fundamentalists favoring red state nationalistic patriarchal and homophobic and anti-feminist fake-patriotism, are enduring the dreg effects of theological apartheid, Competitions in who has the most redeeming right-wing economic effects while ignoring green growing local democratic multicultural inclusion hospitality advocacy healthy resilience polycultural resonance. Such competitors may need Active participation of those with climatic disability experience, Those who have recently been released from imprisoning cells, Those who winter in overnight shelters and summer outside under the stars, Those torn apart by inside violence looking longingly toward memories of outside childhood resonance, Those trained by State machines to kill as automatically and robotically as commanded by the AntiEarth voice of a violent god. And, such wounds and lingering climate vulnerability through trials of impoverished internal spirits and externally hungry natures, may need active hope and faith and compassion cultures communities, communions, more than elitist and segregated lukewarm inside win-or-lose capitalistic faith communities, removed from worshiping outside blue sky memories, cooperative climates of healthy resonant faith.
