Mystic Humanism

THEOLOGY

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

I was brought up by a Christian minister dad, who taught me the love of Jesus, the importance of human psychology and relationships, and the deeper mysticism of Jungian archetypes.  I studied the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism, meditated in Dharma groups, and absorbed the wisdom of Eastern insights.  Studying theologies in Seminary opened my mind to the ideas of Process Theology (participation in on-going creation) and theologies of the oppressed.  As a UU minister and community organizer, I follow the faith that the voices of all of us need to come together to begin to discern what is most powerful in our lives.
