Re-Framing the Sacred
Re-Framing the Sacred
After Galileo and Darwin, we can no longer do science in the old way. In the past few centuries similar thresholds have occurred in art and politics, in medicine, literature and philosophy. Why not religion also?
Next week's guest In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Triangle/Stratos Television says that we ought to, as it were, by-pass the churches and re-invent the Sacred and what we mean by God.
Dr. Val Webb, an academic and writer from Australia, thinks that the question is quite a bit bigger than the old tired questions about God in his heaven and it grows out of sustained thinking about our human condition.
