G*D: Talk-circle
October 15 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Tonight we will discuss various understandings of G*D—theistic, non-theistic, personal, impersonal, the limits of language in speaking of G*D, the relationship of belief and experience.
Oddly enough the paradox is one of our most valuable spiritual possessions, while uniformity of meaning is a sign of weakness. Hence a religion becomes inwardly impoverished when it loses or waters down its paradoxes; but their multiplication enriches because only the paradox comes anywhere near to comprehending the fullness of life. Non-ambiguity and non-contradiction are one-sided and thus unsuited to express the incomprehensible.
