In this essay the author reflects on the nature of reality and the origins of the Western monotheistic tradition. He, then considers the conundrum posed by this and raises questions regarding the nature of boundaries of Quaker universalism and where non-theists place fits in relation to it.
A long-time ecological thinker and critic of American consumerist society, h has also written two books and a collection of poetry.
