Deep Ecology is the One True Religion (Really)

The Celestial Sky God of the Enlightenment, He of reason and philosophy, natural law, science and technology, has essentially faded away into His own Cosmos. He has destroyed religion for most of the educated classes and left us nothing but a void of secular humanism. But since the world civilization He left has engendered the accelerating destruction of the Biosphere and the downfall of Man, we are faced with the stark catastrophic failure of this whole civilizational phase.

Faced with this, the obvious Answer is Deep Ecology as the moral absolute, the unifying principle, and the final phase of religion. Deep Ecology is being constructed from elements of the Old Nature Religions of Earth, of their myth, their lore, their teachings, and of the culture-ways of tribal peoples, and of the findings of ecological science, and of the ecologistic works of culture by modern Nature Romantics, and with the example and teachings of ecological activist leaders, all in as far as they bear ecological wisdom and have the power to inspire Ecological Civilization.

Deep Ecology will take many forms, as it is born in the deep psyche of individuals, as the suppressed Shadow within rises to the challenge of All Life under threat of extinction-- the Drygand within, then, rises rampant, electrifies and mobilizes the total Psyche in service to the defense of All Life. And in numberless individuals around the world, by inspired intuition and by will and deep thought and effort, a personal vision and a personal mythos can be forged which bear the Drive of the unleashed Life-energies, to flood forth and drench the Earth in the New Age of Ecology.
