Disaster

One thing that gives us a sense of equality, that brings people together, is disaster.  When there is an earthquake everyone in the area is affected one way or another.  People tend to reach out to help one another.  Before disaster, people lived in their own separate worlds.  Scripture says in Luke 21 that you cannot pray your way out of an earthquake.  If you live on the platelet fault then you will be in an earthquake when the platelets shift. Good and bad alike, rich and poor, old and young are all in the same mess.  Do some of us really have to have an ecological or geophysical disaster before we realize that we are all equal?
