Questions 48–53
48Should we avoid conflict?
Not automatically. The question is what direction the conflict ultimately serves.
49Why are relationships difficult?
Because different consciousnesses carry competing desires, expectations, fears, and directions.
50What do we owe other people?
Their dignity must be respected, while God remains the ultimate destination of our allegiance.
51Why do people leave us?
Human relationships are temporary forms, not the permanent ground of existence.
52Why do we feel lonely?
Because no finite relationship can completely carry the weight of ultimate belonging.
53Where do I ultimately belong?
With God.
