I know little about the USA, but I'm amused by the Pew survey. "Reincarnation" as a New Age belief? That would surprise the Hindus. Astrology as New Age?
When I started, the Irish Astrological Association was headed by a Jesuit priest.
That's an interesting finding from Pew which is a respected source.
It's a helpful counterbalance to the fanatical fundamentalists who are in the news all the time.
Well the current catechism condems it along with all attempts to foresee the future — I hope the priest who wrote that doesn't listen to the weather forecast! In practice, the Catholic Church has always been happy with it — St Thomas Aquinas defended it.Isn't it considered a sin to believe in astrology?
I never really could quite get a handle on what "New Age" was ever supposed to mean. I remember when they used to sing "this is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius." I never could figure that one out either, but it was kind of a cool song just the same.
