Cleaning out my library

3/8/13

Last night I threw out all my theology books.
Theology is based on the particular mythologies and traditions of past and present groups and has been used to separate us rather than unite us as a species. I feel that the only moral use of theology is to free people from the traditions that separate them from others.Technology has raised the possibility of our species' extinction and traditions that separate us are now lethal for all of us. Those elements in religions that are helpful are already encased in and originated in our humanities.We are birthing a new global and species-wide epoch and need visions to guide us. Visions are the fantasies of artists and materialize possible futures. At the beginning of epochs we need prophets and so we paint, write,make music,dance,propose theories, etc. We are creating new horizons. We are living in a time of epiphanies.
