    Exploring Religion, Nature and Culture—Introducing the Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture

    Abstract: A wide-ranging, interdisciplinary, taboo-free inquiry is essential to engage the central question animating this new journal: What are the relationships among human beings, their diverse religions, and the earth’s living systems? Likewise, it is critical that we wrestle with the terms that constitute the journal’s title—religion, nature and culture—given their diverse and contested meanings. I argue that the proper approach for this new journal is to provide habitat for all reasoned scholarly debate surrounding these terms and the relationships among them. Illustrating this argument by focusing especially on the term religion, I maintain that it is much more important for this journal to entertain interesting hypotheses about people and their environments than it is to resolve disagreements about the precise meaning, analytical value, or boundaries of phenomena that would be understood as religion by some but not all observers.

    The Crazy Uncle in the Attic : A Response to Bron Taylor’s Essay ‘Exploring Religion, Nature and Culture—Introducing the Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture’

    In: Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture, Equinox Publishing, Vol. 3, No. 3 ( 2009-11-16), p. 376-381
    Abstract: This brief article is a response to Bron Taylor’s essay ‘Exploring Religion, Nature and Culture – Introducing the Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture’, in the Journal’s inaugural issue (2007: 5-24). Taylor’s essay is a lucid investigation of the meaning of the three terms central to the Journal – religion, nature, and culture – across the spectrum of their related and contested meanings. He successfully makes the case for the Journal as intellectual habitat for the developing field of religion and ecology without policing the boundaries that divide and separate the phenomenon of religion. He invites readers of and contributors to the Journal to utilize ‘the widest possible range of scholarly approaches to understanding the relationships among what we variously understand to be the natural and religious dimensions of human life and culture’ (Taylor 2007: 6).

    Abstract: In Native American religions there has been a shift from expert knowledge to collaborative knowledge—working with indigenous communities on issues of urgent mutual concern. Most urgent are environmental issues. This article explores collaborative relationships with the Onondaga Nation, near Syracuse New York, the Central Fire of the Haudenosaunee (‘People of the Longhouse’ Six Nations Iroquois) Confederacy. The Onondaga Nation is still organized and run according to the ancient ceremonial process—the Great Law of Peace. Because of their strong traditional orientation they have led international efforts for the recognition of indigenous people at the United Nations. Leaders like Oren Lyons and Audrey Shenandoah have brought their message of peace and environmental justice to the world. On 11 March 2005 they filed their ‘Land Rights Action’. Native and non-native have been inspired by this action and several collaborative events have resulted from this bold and principled stand on behalf of the environment.

    Translation of “Présentation” from La Religion Implicite : une Introduction

    Abstract: Edward Bailey’s book, Implicit Religion: An Introduction, was published in 1998 by Middlesex University Press (London). This translation is part of a broader project to introduce an area of study which has been developing in Great Britain and in other English-speaking countries for about thirty years, to the French-speaking world. In 1996, Religiologiques, the journal of the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Quebec in Montreal, devoted an issue to this field of study by publishing a “selection” of ten articles by British authors illustrating the fertile diversity of this approach to the phenomenon of religion. Unfortunately, despite some incursion into French speaking territory, this approach remains largely unknown here. Yet even today, more than ten years later, the prospects opened up by this line of research are by their nature capable of contributing to the renewal of our understanding of the phenomenon of religion and its current evolution. So it seemed important to me to translate this short treatise which introduces the origins and the broader themes of the concept of implicit religion, together with some of the principal results of the research it has inspired.

    Wilderness, Religion and Ecological Restoration in the Scottish Highlands
    Equinox Publishing ; 2005

    Abstract: The efforts of nature conservation bodies to return parts of the Highlands to a ‘pristine’ state involve attempts to reduce both signs of human dwelling and the destructive impacts of animals introduced by wealthy landlords for sport and cash such as deer and sheep. The irony is that such restoration projects will still not achieve the levels of biodiversity that obtained before the Clearances when Gaels dwelt in what are now regarded as ecologically rich but threatened regions. Wilderness restoration projects reflect in some ways the modern romantic fetishisation of wild nature which finds its modern equivalent in the growing practice of wilderness therapy. Discussions amongst philosophers of wilderness, and ecological restoration, frequently neglect the dimension of the environmental exclusion of indigenous people, and so also tend to fetishise wilderness. Biblical accounts of wilderness restoration are strongly at variance with modern approaches when they suggest that the divine intent to restore desert to fertile land involves also the redemption of the poor, and of other species, from the greed and corruption of the wealthy. In this sense the land reform project of the new Scottish Parliament comes closer to a Biblical vision of wilderness restoration than traditional nature conservation strategies.

    Environmental Justice and the Economy : A Christian Theologian’s View

    In: Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture, Equinox Publishing, ( 2006-08-24), p. 294-310
    Abstract: This article presents the case for a Christian understanding of justice as one that is inclusive of environmental issues. I concentrate, in particular, on economic market practices that serve to exacerbate environmental harms. Justice has commonly been considered in the first place as a value principle that is more often than not confined to the human community. I argue in the second place for the relevance of a Christian understanding of the virtues, incorporating the classic tradition of justice understood as a virtue alongside prudence and temperance. The first, principled approach, opens up the possibility of a critical discussion of Rawls’ theory of justice in relation to the concerns of environmental justice movements and the need for further broadening out into ecological justice. The second, virtue approach, opens up the need to take into account Christian concern for the poor and mediating economic strategies that demonstrate how the cardinal virtues of prudence, justice and temperance can, together, be expressed in practical terms prior to more radical and more idealistic revisions in the global economy.

    Re-Uniting with the Kosmos

    Abstract: This paper considers the need for interdisciplinary study in the fields of religion, nature and culture, and the role of western scholarship in contributing to the current crises facing human/nature relations. In identifying the common fundamental theme that pervades much of the literature on the current environmental crisis, that of our mental separation from the kosmos (as in the ancient Greek sense) I consider the need to explore the role of scholars in being able to lead us back into a sense of unity with it. In suggesting ways through which this could come about, I explore my own research experiences and how they changed my basic worldview. I then consider how some of these experiences have challenged my understanding of the relationship between humans, nature and spirit.

    The Hero’s Journey : The Search for Identity from a Psychological, Mythological, and Astrological Perspective

    Abstract: The intention of this paper is to ascertain whether the search for one’s highest and true being is inherent in humanity, how it can best be accomplished, and with what possible results. To this end, I have tried to identify common themes in psychology, myth, and astrology. This article begins with an exploration of the tenets of the main exponents of growth-oriented psychologies. I will then look at the role of mythology and its symbolic language. Consequently, I will analyse current developments within astrology and what the influence of psychology has been. Looking then for possible correlations between psychology and astrology, I will use, as my principal example, the archetype of the Self and the symbolism of the astrological sun. I will suggest that the theme most deeply-rooted in the human psyche is that of the hero’s journey and I will examine what this means in the different disciplines.
