027 God, Christianity, and Paganism




Jay Forrest On Secular Buddhism show

Summary: Naturalistic Pantheism is now a part of Bodhidaoism. Pantheism is the belief that all is God and God is all. Looking at reality objectively, the natural world is all that exists (Naturalism). Looking at reality subjectively, the Cosmos is Divine. The first is a statement of ontology, the second a value statement expressed metaphorically. Because of this incorporation of God-talk, I have subtracted Existentialism and Humanism from the Eight Streams, and I have added Paganism and Christianity.
