Paganism in the Third Millennium
Presented by Oberon Zell-Ravenheart.
The two thousand years allotted by their own mythos for the reign of Christianity has now ended. After an Age-long exile, Paganism is returning to the world. The recent Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings movies are only a few ways in which the new Pagan renaissance is impacting the popular culture--especially the next generation. Joseph Campbell said it is time for a new myth that includes the whole Earth and everyone on it. Paganism and the Gaia Thesis offer such an all-embracing mythos. This Millennium can be ours, if we can seize the day. Drawing upon 43 years’ experience as a group founder, magazine publisher, presenter and leader in the worldwide Neo-Pagan community, Oberon leads an informal interactive forum-style discussion concerning our identity as modern Pagans, our history, and our future. Come prepared with questions to raise, issues to discuss, ideas to present, visions to offer.
