21 12 2011

Year One: A Year of Humanistic PaganismHere it is! – an anthology of all our published works to date, organized into one coherent presentation.

Yet this is much more than just an anthology.  Exclusive new material lays out HP’s mission and vision, survey data brings the community to life, and multiple tables of contents arrange the articles in fresh and revealing patterns.  Altogether more than 50 articles from over a dozen authors explore life at the intersection of science and myth.

This work includes brand new material:

  • Nine months: The story of HP and its mission
  • Rain dance: A vision for HP

Whether you’re new to HP or an old veteran, you’re going to love Year One.  You can choose from one of four tables of contents that put the articles in a fresh light:

  • Topical Table of Contents – a practical route
  • Critical Questions Table of Contents – responses to critics
  • Fourfold Path Table of Contents – the basic framework of HP’s path
  • Four Elements Table of Contents – a contemplative experience

What’s been most valuable on HP?

15 12 2011

Thing on Thursday #12

Well, this is the final Thing on Thursday, which means that just around the corner is the Solstice (Dec. 21st), and with it the beginning of our Winterviews event!

With this last poll, I’d like to get feedback on the services provided by our website.  What has been most valuable for you?

If there’s something missing from the choices, or if there’s some other service you’d like to see, please add it in the “other” box and explain in the comments.  Thanks!

Please choose your top three.

Please share your thoughts in the comments below!

About Thing on Thursday

Althing in Session, by W.G. CollingwoodThis post is part of a series of councils on matters vital to the future.  The name represents both the generic term for, you know, a thingie, as well as the Old Norse term for a council of elders: a Thing.

Each week until the Winter Solstice, Thing on Thursday will explore a new controversy.  Participation is open to all – the more minds that come together, the better.  Those who have been vocal in the comments are as welcome as those quiet-but-devoted readers who have yet to venture a word.  We value all constructive opinions.

There are only a few rules:

  • be constructive – this is a council, so treat it as such
  • be respectful – no rants or flames

Comments will be taken into consideration as we determine the new direction of Humanistic Paganism.  This will also greatly shape the vision that unfolds in our upcoming ebook Our Ancient Future: Visions of Humanistic Paganism.

So please make your voice heard in the comments!





What does ritual mean to you?

8 12 2011

Thing on Thursday #11

Developing meditations and rituals was voted as a potential project for us, now let’s get more detail on what that means.  Last week we asked about meditation, so this week let’s talk about ritual.

The choices in the poll may involve some overlap, and there will no doubt be plenty left out.  Please use the “other” box for any missing types you wish to vote for.

There may also be considerable overlap between “ritual” and “meditation”, the boundaries between which may be blurry or ultimately non-existent.

Please choose your top three.
