British biologist Rupert Sheldrake and American priest Matthew Fox share an interest in going beyond the current limitations of institutional science and mechanistic religion. They both believe that as the new millennium dawns, a new vision is needed which brings together science, spirituality and a sense of the sacred. Their separation underlies our present crisis of ecological devastation, despair and disempowerment. How else can hope in a new sense of meaning be awakened if not by the coming together of those two powerful traditions that were rent asunder in the seventeenth century? We need a new cosmology that speaks to our hearts as well as our minds.
