A new Post-Christian Zaadz pod

jim.mcfarland said May 15, 2007, 8:46 AM:

 

I have recently started a new pod called ”Post-Christian”.  It is a discussion group for those interested in liberal/free religion.   Once the group gets more members, who knows what directions it may go in, but my own spritual interests include: Christian origins, Gnosticism,
Panentheism, Process Theology, Buddhism, Hinduism, Metaphysics, Neo-Paganism, and liberal religion in general.  Oh… and I am a Unitarian Universalist.

You can find the pod herehttp://pods.zaadz.com/post_christian

Here is the current pod description:
This pod is for discussion among folks who identify as being Post-Christian.

What is Post-Christian?
It might be starting from a Christian background, and then…
* becoming more than Christian; i.e. adding beliefs from other sources to your Christianity
* moving from Christianity to another religion
* evolving your Christianity to a heretical form that does not fit into a mainstream denomination
Or, you could start from a place other than Christianity, and end up in a community that could be called Post-Christian.  Unitarian Universalism is a Post-Christian religion.

Folks who identify as Post-Christian probably do not seem like Christians to mainstream
Christians, but might seem like Christians to folks who are not Christians.  Or, maybe not.

So… there is not a clear definition of Post-Christian, but it is a term that may feel right to many people.
