Prince Charles on learning from Covid-19

​​
Thanks very much, Heather.  I think Prince Charles has the right idea.

I'm all for putting the health of the planet before ripping out its wealth with economic growth and growth of everything and everyone.
Ecology before economics.
Nature and protecting life support systems and the planet's biodiversity.
Spirituality and morality before expediency.
Politics must be about morality and non-violence, with constraint over coercion.
Nature/God at the centre of our societies.

During most of my adult life, I've moved away from evangelical Christianity with its emphasis on salvation.  But towards living as a disciple of the Lord Jesus as shown in His life and teaching in the Gospels.  That means all the left-wing things - others first, equality, justice and fair shares for all and sustaining life on earth for many more centuries.
