	Dissent (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A broad set of belief systems in which creation is worshipped and in which a belief in many gods (polytheism) is held.
		This spirituality has much in common with pagan Wicca (Witchcraft), which is also focused on worshipping creation.
		It is a symbol that creates a sacred space and place and takes us out of our ego to 'That Which Is Within.'" Usually pagan influenced spirituality centers will sponsor all of Enneagrams, Centering Prayer, and Labyrinths.

		Women-Church Convergence was created as a coalition of twenty-six feminist groups with intricately interwoven directorships, "drawn from a narrow band on the ideological spectrum" and described as "rooted in the Catholic tradition" (p.
		She claimed that feminist spirituality is "dissolving that myth and image" and re-creating "a myth of God through the process of alienation from the old myth and the reconstruction of a God-myth through the lens of another experience of humanness" (p.
		There is for them no hope, because demons have led them to base "creation spirituality" upon the act of despair, and the tragedy of Catholic feminist philosophy is that they have accepted despair as their act of "hope." This may be why they almost always look so sad.

		Creation is permeated with a redemptive sanctification, even a divinization.

		It [the fall/redemption model] is a dualistic model [separating the sacred and profane] and a patriarchal [father oriented, male dominated] one; it begins its theology with sin and original sin, and it generally ends with redemption.

	Sacred Flesh
		Spoken symbolism thus refers back to manifestations of the sacred, to hierophanies, where the sacred is shown in a fragment of the cosmos...
		Through the temple of the body celebrating in the body of the temple, chaos becomes creation, and evil is transformed into order.
		It is striking that the most ancient creation story in the Bible, Psalm 104, so full of praise of the fleshy creation of God, in celebrating the same for 34 verses, only at the 35th verse, and only in the context of praise and joy, raises the question of human sin.

	Native American Spirituality
		Each tribe had its own set of festivals, rituals, and spiritual beliefs, therefore to write of 'Native American spirituality' as one entity would be erroneous.
		The powers of nature, the personal quest of the soul, the acts of daily life, the solidarity of the tribe--all were religious, and were sustained by dance and ritual.
		Native Americans' creation myths also portray a different understanding about the place humans occupy vis-à-vis their animal, plant and mineral co-inhabitants of the earth.

		We were raised in shame based, emotionally dishonest, Spiritually hostile environments by parents who were wounded in their childhoods by patriarchal, shame based civilization that treated children and women as property.
		Spiritual Teacher and Codependency Therapist Robert Burney, whose work has been compared to John Bradshaw's "except much more spiritual" and described as "taking inner child healing to a new level," has developed a unique approach to emotional healing that is the next level of recovery from codependency so many people have been seeking.

	Thursday Theology #198 - Creation Spirituality - an Other Gospel
		"Creation Spirituality," if the term is new to you, is a late 20th century movement linked to Matthew Fox, former RC monastic (Dominican, I think, but I'm not sure).
		Our teacher Marlene De Nardo was an evangelist for the "gospel" of the "Creation Spirituality" [hereafter "CS"] movement associated with Naropa University in Oakland, Calif. (where she teaches) and its proposals for dialogue with world religions.
		By eliminating the distinction between Creator and creature, there is no "Outsider" to call us to account for the way we are living.

	The Four Ways of Creation Spirituality at Project: Shadow.com
		“The backbone of the creation spirituality tradition is its naming of the spiritual journey in Four Paths.
		By naming the journey we assure that we shall not get stuck in any one of the paths, which can easily happen since each of the paths is deep and powerful (Fox, Creation Spirituality, 17).” A path is a relationship between two ends over a certain terrain.
		We are told in Path One that awe and delight matter; in Path Two that darkness, suffering, and letting go matter; in Path Three that creativity and imagination matter; and in Path Four that justice and celebration, which add up to compassion, matter (Fox, Creation Spirituality,17-18).” What matters is the terrain the paths cover.

		In 1995, the 57-year-old renegade priest lost control over the Institute in Culture and Spirituality, a program he had led for over a decade at Holy Names.
		Six or so classrooms surround the communal room, each emblazoned with the name of a "spiritual" leader Fox admires: Sojourner Truth, Gandhi, Eckhart, etc. There is also a "sacred cave," which a staffer describes as a "chapel," but which is simply a bare, carpeted room with a few cushions, candles and a small running fountain.
		From a faculty which features Jerry Brown, UCS students take such courses as: Advanced Dreamwork, The Historical Jesus as Ecological Sage, Creation Spirituality and the Gay and Lesbian Experience, Sacred Sexuality, and Massage as Meditation.

	WildFaith - Creation Spirituality
		Creation Spirituality honors all of creation as "original blessing." It is an ancient, earth-centered spirituality found in the deepest traditions of Judaism, Christianity, Sufism, indigenous and other paths. As theologian
		and practice, this oneness extends to the earth, the environment and, indeed, to all creation. One begins to perceive all things in God and God in all things. The Divine Indwelling perceives Godself in everything that exists.

		The clergy at the Vatican must be wringing their hands as he speaks freely about the motherhood of God, the spiritual relevance of environmental consciousness and love for animals, the interconnectedness of all religions, and the acceptance of homosexuality as a viable lifestyle.
		That Jesus' message might actually have something to do with progressive social action is an idea that the church has traditionally sidestepped with dexterity, but listening to Matthew Fox, it is easy to entertain the idea that the true spirit of Christ is arising to turn the tables once again.
