I Left Church, Not God T Shirt

"Parable of the Sower" by Octavia E. Butler is a dystopian novel that takes place in America, 2024 and 2025, where society has been devastated by climate change, economic collapse, and social disintegration. The story follows Lauren Olamina. After the community she grew up in is destroyed, she develops a new spiritual belief system called Earthseed, which centers on the idea that "God is Change." Earthseed teaches that the only constant in life is change and that humanity's destiny is to take root among the stars.

"Parable of the Sower" inspires the work of Project (De)Construction, as both explore the dismantling of existing structures within religious communities and the creation of new, supportive, and transformative ones. Lauren's development of Earthseed reflects a process of deconstructing traditional religious and social norms to build a belief system that is adaptable and resilient in a changing world.
