Interpretation of dali48 + update
Especially in today's world - where large areas of the Church by alienation of the reality and ignorance - increasingly maneuver themselves in alienation to their ...
Natural factors - constitute our … (I. Hobert / W. Sprenger)

The church, in certain interpretations, can contribute to a sense of alienation from reality and ignorance by emphasizing a particular worldview or ignoring the broader context of human experience. This can manifest in several ways, including:
Disregarding scientific and historical truths:
Some religious interpretations may reject or downplay scientific discoveries or historical accounts that contradict their beliefs, leading to a disconnect with the real world. 
Creating a false dichotomy between faith and reason:
The church's emphasis on faith as the sole source of truth can lead individuals to discount reason and empirical evidence, hindering their ability to understand the world accurately. 
Promoting a rigid and exclusive worldview:
Some church teachings might present a narrow view of truth and morality, excluding alternative perspectives or experiences that challenge their established beliefs, fostering a sense of alienation from those who hold different views. 
Using language and symbolism that can be misinterpreted:
The church's language and symbolism, while intended to convey spiritual meaning, can sometimes be interpreted literally, leading to confusion or misunderstanding of the intended message. 
These factors can contribute to ignorance and alienation by limiting individuals' access to a broader range of knowledge and perspectives, hindering their ability to engage with the world in a meaningful and informed way. The church's role in shaping conscience can also contribute to this, as it can sometimes be used to enforce conformity rather than promote critical thinking and independent judgment.

The systematic pollution of air, water, and soil has severely degraded the ecological integrity and function of ecosystems. This degradation leads to a decline in biodiversity, disruption of ecological processes, and ultimately, impacts on human health and well-being. 
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Biodiversity Loss:
Pollution directly impacts various species, leading to a decline in plant and animal populations, and potentially causing extinction. 
Ecosystem Disruption:
Pollutants can disrupt natural cycles like nutrient cycling, water flow, and pollination, impacting the overall health and stability of ecosystems. 
Human Health Impacts:
Pollution of air, water, and soil can lead to various health problems, including respiratory illnesses, cardiovascular disease, and cancers. 
Reduced Ecosystem Services:
Pollution reduces the ability of ecosystems to provide essential services like clean water and air, fertile soil, and climate regulation. 
Food Security Risks:
Soil pollution can contaminate crops, reducing food production and increasing the risk of food insecurity. 
In essence, the pollution of air, water, and soil has created a vicious cycle where environmental degradation leads to a cascade of negative consequences for both the natural world and human society. 
In many cases, the consumption of recreation diminishes the ...
“Zen” means: searching your soul by meditation, peace, understanding, devotion, art... (I. Hobert / W. Sprenger)

The statement "Zen means: searching your soul by meditation" is not entirely accurate, but it captures a significant aspect of Zen. Zen is a school of Buddhism that emphasizes direct experience and meditation (Zazen) as a way to achieve enlightenment and understand one's true nature. While "searching your soul" can be part of the process, Zen also emphasizes being present and aware of the current moment. 
Here's a more accurate breakdown:
Zen Buddhism:
A school of Buddhism that originated in China and spread to Japan and other parts of Asia. 
Meditation (Zazen):
A core practice in Zen, involving sitting meditation to cultivate mindfulness and awareness. 
Enlightenment:
Zen seeks to achieve enlightenment or awakening through direct experience, rather than through intellectual study or belief in doctrines. 
Present Moment:
Zen emphasizes living in the present, being mindful of one's thoughts and sensations, and not getting caught up in the past or future. 
Buddha-nature:
Zen teachings suggest that everyone has the potential to awaken to their true nature, which is often referred to as Buddha-nature. 
Not just a religion:
While rooted in Buddhism, Zen is more of a practice and a way of life that can be incorporated into any lifestyle. 
In essence, Zen is about finding enlightenment and understanding one's true nature through meditation, mindfulness, and a direct experience of reality, rather than solely through a search for a "soul". 
I can see where you are coming from dali48, many churches if not all have their rules ... do this or don't do that, sometimes leaving people to fear the Lord and walk away from everything... - "preserve one’s own faith without a church ... this was what I had to do ... my meditation which I have done since a very young age helped me on this path .... learning to respect God's hand in everything”...
“Your paragraph on "The systematic pollution of air, water and soil has destroyed the ecological balance." Tears come to my eyes to see the terrible mess our beautiful earth is in... ”
Yes we need to come to balance with ourselves and with the creations of God's... without time for meditation I believe we get lost in the rush of life, stop seeing the beauty around us, stop having feels, only stress... - "Zen" means to me to find peace with oneself ... your whole paragraph is true and beautiful and would only bring peace to each of us... ”
