You have misunderstood. The global community I refer to is the Church. What I'm saying is that the Church must now respond as a global community, with all the 'power' and responsibility that comes with that. Not as a small sect as we were in the days of the Early Church.

We have evolved into a different body, and are responding in a different world. We must respond as the body we have become, and respond within the world in which we live.

I suggest that my post is re-read with this post in mind.
