“The eyes of others our prisons; their thoughts our cages.” – Virginia Woolf
In this case you have to remember that Virginia put rocks in her pockets and drowned herself in the closest flowing water.
Here are some notes. A new direction for liberal religion. Cosmology: a nature centered (including humans) faith that has local manifestations, i.e. this galaxy, this solar system, this planet, this nation, this province, this place, this particular location. (Our Town) Anthropology: we are universes, one self, many selves. Whitman. We grow toward a Self that can contain and nourish all of our many selves, yet paradoxically extinguish them all. Existentialism. Nexus. Ethics: the Iroquois medicine man at Theology in the Americas. Soteriology-see ethics and anthropology. A decadent salvation, from stardust to stardust.
We must answer the thin faith of the empiricist, the sad faith of the secular humanist, the mad faith of the fundamentalists and the mind-only faith of those outside the faith traditions of their youth. Our response, our new direction folds together the empiricist and the humanist with a pagan lovesong, a romantic hymn to the universal and the particular. Its flower symphony trumpets forth from home altars all across the globe, a fragrant and colorful melody that weaves us all together, a magic fabric with each individual, yet each part.
This has legs in my heart, it wants to run and jump and play with others.
