Oliver Belisle “Modern Mythmaking in the Information Age.”
The Garden of Eden; Original Sin; the Abrahamic God: like a growing number of people in the world today, we Unitarian Universalists tend to regard these concepts as the product of ancient people trying to explain life’s great mysteries. Though imaginative and compelling, these accounts fall far from the mark, or so it would seem. Today, few among us give serious consideration to these ideas and the stories that birthed them, believing that they have little of value to offer us. But what if there is something of importance to be found in these myths and fables? What if, despite their lack of literal truth, these concepts nevertheless contain revelations that could help us better understand ourselves and the world at large? Join us as we explore these questions.
