When: Sep. 9th. 2009 - Jan. 13th. 2010
Where: Arlingtion, Virginia
A class in the the historical and personal orgins of Paganism
Event Details: Check the website for documents and updates: http://www.moonfireuuca.org/Class%20PaganRelTrad.html
Working closely with the UU Church of Arlington we will review the idea of Paganism from its origins as the "original" religious tradition through its modern revival. We will discuss how Pagan practices and beliefs relate to Unitarian Universalism, how Pagans think about ethics and justice, and how you can go about building your own Pagan religious tradition.
Synopsis
Paganism is both a new religious movement as well as a religion rooted in historical and current ethnic religious practices. In this course we will examine Western European Paganism through the lens of how it has evolved into its current state in the 21st century, with an emphasis on its relationship with the Unitarian Universalist tradition. We will talk about history, practice, principles, and what they mean for our lives as UUs and Pagans. The emphasis will be on understanding, knowing where we come from and where we are going, and how Pagan practice can integrate and inform our own theologies and daily spiritual practices.
