Dear Lee, and EcoFem, I am responding to Lee's passionate plea to end the patriarchal epoch before it destroys us all. I am planning to do just this in three years flat if I can get enough support. I have a home page entitled "The Renewal" which is dedicated to saving biodiversity by restoring the lost gender balance at the root of our lost vision of sustainability. You can find "The Renewal" either at: http://matu1.math.auckland.ac.nz/~king/Preprints/book/genesis.html or on Lee's own Sustainable Future Web Ring: http://www1.tpgi.com.au/users/resolve/globalcrisis/webring.html If you have the time please review it, and give me, or preferrably Ecofem, your comments. Stefanie Rixecker, the Ecofem list facilitator, has already given it a very constructive review, which has been incorporated into the current genotype. I would also very much appreciate your offers of help, support and creative ideas. We need to gather powerfully by 2000 to make a real dent in biodiversity erosion by say 2005-10. I am absolutely sure we can succeed in time. I don't believe a science-only approach will work because what creative future we make of this world is a matter of genetic and ecosystemic choice and a creative affair of the heart. There are if anything more genetic engineers than ecologists and they are all hungry for dollars. Scientific discovery quickly becomes economic venture capital and then the mechanization of nature. Breaking the cycle is a matter of living values and choices for the evolutionary future. I am thus calling on environmentalists (especially but not only ecofeminists), and the feminine-minded within the spiritual paths including the broad spectrum of Christian women, "Goddess and nature worshippers", Jewish feminists etc. to participate a synergetic gathering and empowerment of feminine Wisdom - a climacteric of conscience to end the patriarchal epoch. In demonstrating the Eden archetype, I have a synchronistic way to consumate gender reunion ending the patriarchal epoch, which I see as having caused the whole population / ecocrisis problem through the male evolutionary strategy of venture exploitation. There is another EVE-like physical aspect to spirituality which is not "God in the sky" stuff, but really looking after the future of evolution. This is something immensely practical - the very spirit of feminine Wisdom and personal responsibility and empowerment. This is evolutionary ecology, not some wierd religion. I am committed to being both visionary and sceptic - fulfilling the spiritual tradition for a truly biological renewal. If you are religious it is genuine prophetic tradition, but if you are a sceptic it is evolutionary common sense. I know it's a paradox for a member of the 'guilty sex' to be doing this thing - 'the sperm that turned', but you will find it takes a male carrying the archetype to toll the bell upon the patriarchal tradition. I happen to be able to do this, so I can genuinely be of assistance. The idea is to enter into a fractal chain-reaction - that is we use our diverse creative initiative, expertise and personal contacts to form a synergy which can achieve a direct transformation which would otherwise be impossible. By drawing more people in, we can gather new and complementary resources which will open diverse avenues and reach into every facet of society. Reinterpreting the Renewal fractally in a spectrum of different ways is the key to its becoming everybodies restoration of life. We are all the synchronous unfolding. Please ask me anything. Test me. I will faithfully respond. love and regards, Chris King - The Tao, the Truth and the Life. _____________________________________________________________________________ Chaos is the Mother of Invention - Necessity the Offspring _____________________________________________________________________________ Chris KING, Phone: 0064-9-3737599 # 8818 Senior Lecturer Mathematics Fax: 0064-9-3737457 University of Auckland E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Private Bag 92019 http://matu1.math.auckland.ac.nz/~king/ AUCKLAND, New Zealand.
