day no. 16,875: differences > diversity

Genesis 1:31

And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

The Trinity looked down on diversity and called it, "Good!"

Diversity looks around at purity and calls it, "Evil!"

God looked down on differences and said, "Things are looking up!"

HR looks around at differences and says, "Something's wrong!"

The Lord loves disparity.

The Left loves conformity.

Mark 10:9

What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Do not divorce the differences God has married and do not marry the similarities God has separated.

In the beginning, God separated light from darkness, evening from day, waters above from waters below, water from land, kinds from other kinds, seasons from other seasons, and man from woman.

God likes differences. He made these all in a perfect world and called them all, "Very good!"

If I set the sun beside the moon,

And if I set the land beside the sea,

And if I set the town beside the country,

And if I set the man beside the woman,

I suppose some fool would talk about one being better.

— G. K. Chesterton, Comparisons

Artificially imposed diversity is casual indifference to uniqueness.

Divine differences are the liberated harmony of unified distinction.

Isaiah 5:20-21

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;

that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;

that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
