HUMA 1165 Study Guide - Final Guide: Spiritual Ecology, Subtle Body, Orthodox Judaism
Document Summary
Body of god - main ideas: dualism, opposition to the other, different models, christianity is fixed, as we evolve, theology changes, humanity is the 1st priority in christianity. Spiritual ecology: ex) no bees = famine. 1st reason: think about space as primary category, on the par w/ other life forms, accord space needed - should be. If not the case = imbalance: think equally. Sustainability: historical to temporal perspective, ecological and justice issues. 2nd reason: time to preserve, continuously run out of space, fight for land - wars, greed, cannot sustain w/o good land, better parts of the land, deficit/scarcity. Understand god and theology in terms of the new science. If one person doesn"t evolve - the whole planet suffers: unpredictable, beginning, middle, presumable end, old language, old ideas - old theology, expand understanding - change, must change because world is always changing, not much time left. Journey to mecca: element of the journey, the band"s visit, longing, discipline.
