Lion among many
Nature's Way ch3-4
1. What human virtue does Lion symbolize? To what are male lions predisposed? Is nature, in this and other respects, a reliable moral teacher?
2. What are the "feminine principles"? Are they also human principles? How can young men be educated to value "acceptance" etc.?
3. What was distinctive of "Old Europe"? What did it (and the Celts and Druids) have in common with the indigenous societies of North America?
4. What do you think of Eagle Man's view of natural tragedies? Would you advocate his position to survivors who'd lost loved ones in a volcano, tornado, etc.?
5. "I have always doubted that a mere man could alter what Creator made." Do you agree about the impotence of humanity, considered individually and collectively? Is anthropogenic climate change contrary to your spiritual beliefs? What is the point of reflecting on environmental ethics if Creation is unalterable?
6. What happens to children raised in a society of gender inequality?
7. What do you think of Eagle Man's ghost dream? Does it matter if it was "just a dream"?
8. Do you share Eagle Man's "East Power" & "Sky Power" optimism? Has the Internet begun to enhance communication and knowledge? What does "Blue Man" symbolize?
9. What's the "Mount Rushmore of organized religion"?
10. "Maybe we did come from Wind Cave. But who knows?" Is this agnosticism? Is Eagle Man's attitude towards Darwin agnostic, or affirming?
11. Same opportunity again, STUDENTS: What else do you want to ask (& discuss) about these chapters?
