Rather haunted at morning prayer by a phrase from Richard Rohrs email: There seems to be some deep bias against embodiment, materiality, and physicality. That is where we harbor our inferiority feelings. You’d think if there would be any religion in the world that would not think that way, it would be Christianity, because Christianity is the only religion that believes that God became a body, became a human being: Jesus. That’s why we get so excited about Christmas! We call it the Feast of the Incarnation or “enfleshment.” But I find most mainline Christians to be quite “excarnational” and moving opposite to the path of Jesus and trying to be “spiritual,” whatever that means.
