Disarming Fundamentalism: Phil Steger Speaks
Do you find yourself at a loss for words when trying to discuss your desire for peace through nonviolence with people who have differing views and religious beliefs? Would you like to have such conversations in a truly loving and respectful way?
Our guest speaker is Phil Steger of Friends for a Non-Violent World (www.fnvw.org), a national organization based in St. Paul. Phil is energizing, wise beyond his years, and deeply committed to global nonviolence.
He will provide information and introduce perspectives that can help people talk about peace and nonviolence with the religious right and others who see the issues of war and peace quite differently than we might. He will show us ways to address the spiritual and security (strategic) needs of religious fundamentalists, drawing on the ideas of Karen Armstrong in her books, The History of God and The Battle for God.
The session will also include time for dialogue with Phil and each other.
Saturday MAGNT meetings are free and open to the public. No need to pre-register. Just come and be warmly included. MAGNT, the Minnesota chapter of the Association for Global New Thought, offers activities to expand consciousness. Its purpose is to inspire, inform and empower people to create an awakened world. MAGNT is supported by local Unity and Religious Science churches.
Come to learn, to ask questions, and to engage in spirited conversation with the group. We look forward to seeing you.
Saturday, November 11, 2006 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon Unity South Church 7950 First Ave. So., Bloomington, MN 55420
Peace and blessings to you,
