In the 1920s, priest-paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1882-1955) wove science and mysticism into a potent vision for our future. He was first to name the Noosphere the consciousness envelope of the planet, and so much more. Join us for a lively discussion around the Four Freedoms and Teilhard’s prophetic wisdom for our time.

“Thomas Berry, at the American Teilhard Association led me to re-discover Teilhard de Chardin who inspired me to find the goodness and beauty on the earth. His Dream of the Earth is my dream, and we can come together here in Deeptime. We can merge science and religion, as they both speak the same Truth if we go deep enough. That is my quest. “
