The heart of the gospel, the good news, is not right belief. The heart of the good news that Jesus came to proclaim is liberation from injustice and poverty, from racism and chauvinism and imperialism, from domination and persecution. 

Jesus was the Liberator whose whole life and message is aimed at getting the rich and powerful to act with justice and mercy, to give sight to the blind, liberty to the captives, and help to widows and children, the elderly and downtrodden. 

Truth is not found in some eternal doctrine, handed down by those in control. Truth cannot be got by the most powerful nor the most authoritative (though they'd like you to think so). What we can know on this side of death is always partial. It takes many voices, many authentic, lived viewpoints, to begin to piece it together-- and even then we'll not have the whole enormity of Truth. 

And so we must come together and listen to many voices. We need a reunion of the scattered parts of humanity and life.
