Feb. 7th, 2002 04:10 amThe more I delve into scientific, rational explanations for the beginning of the universe, our own solar system, and the genesis and evolution of life, the more I observe my spirituality becoming earth-centered.
It's strange; my paganism wasn't nature-based before the last six months.
Two years ago, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within would not have made much an impression on me, aside from its excellent graphics. And even the first time I watched it, I made little note of its script; I saw it as an allegory. Now, I think of the idea of the spirit of Gaia, and some of it doesn't seem so off the wall to me anymore. (Though I think "spirit" is a misleading term.)
