We have learned that the original word Paganus simply meant “country person.” As Christianity spread, it was strongest in the cities, and the country people often kept to their own old traditions. So Pagan or “country person” gradually became a derogatory term for non-Christians. When we came to discuss the title of this book, we decided to be inclusive and to use both Pagan and Earth-centered to describe the voices included.
But what unites everyone with different belief systems and practices who identify with either of these terms within Unitarian Universalism? Broadly stated, we place a special emphasis in our spiritual lives on the feminine aspect of divinity, the cycles of nature, the honoring of our ancestors, and the inherent divine and creative potential in all people.
—from the Introduction
An essential—and remarkably heartfelt—introduction to the development and blossoming of Unitarian Universalist Paganism.
