Description
Introduction Difference. Difference bothers us. It troubles us if we have a "difference of opinion" with others. We might be uncomfortable if we are in settings where practices and beliefs are different from ours.

Difference has a bad rap. We don't like it. We try to avoid it. However, according to Genesis I, difference is the heart of creation. (1) It is, in fact, what constitutes creation, for without difference, according to Genesis, there was "a formless void."
