How much is your time worth? You can put that in dollars. How much is your car worth? You can put that in dollars. But does your time or your car have worthiness? If a sibling raises their hand and says “I don’t want to be given a worth because my ancestors were judged on a dollar value”, and instead are accepting of referring to their worthiness, isn’t it appropriate to hear that and learn from it? It feels awkward because it’s new. The old way is supremacist to the oppressed. Let people sit with the awkwardness and we can all learn from it. Let it prompt discussions with non-UUs about what we mean by it. Eventually it might become the words we don’t want to change later.
