I saw Matthew Fox last night in Asheville, NC [View All]

Fox spoke for about 90 minutes at the Jubilee Community in Asheville, NC on the need for Christian Reformation. Fox encourages a divorce from churches that support an angry exclusionary God and fundamentalism that fears science, preaches intolerance, and relies on fear and original sin as the basis of religion.

Fox encouraged the audience to spread the news of a loving God that loves compassion and justice, a God that is earth centered (GREEN MAN!!) and focuses on Original Blessing.

Fox spoke about Opus Dei and its hardline conservative Catholicism. That our supreme court has two known Opus Dei members (Scalia & Thomas) and possibly two more (Alito & Roberts). How Bush went to then Cardinal Ratzinberger in June-2004 and asked for help w/ the Catholic vote. Shortly thereafter came the order that bishops were to deny communion to abortion rights supporters including presidential candidate John Kerry.

Fox reminded us that 1 in 4 species of mammals is going extinct and that we are the only species on the planet that can CHOOSE not to go extinct.


Good Stuff!!
