Why is there evil and suffering?

[Thats my opinion]

64. The question often arises as to where one can find the seat of this theology,.

as if it came from a half dozen people sitting in their ivory towers.
Let me offer a few examples:

you can find it in the seminaries at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, The University of Chicago, Union Seminary in New York (the school of Cornell West who is back teaching there now, Cambridge, Oxford and a large collection of ecumenical schools throughout the world.In addition you can fine its in seminaries of the United Methodist Church, The United Church of Christ, The Disciples of Christ, The Unitarians and schools operated by other denominations. In addition there are the 300 members of the Jesus Seminar (now called he Weststar Institute) including the Catholic, Dom Gregory Crossin, The Institute of Biblical research, The American Academy of Religion, The Center for Process Study (including 12 Universities in China).

I'm tired. Need I go on? If you want to see the literature, just Google "Process Theology."

Is this what goes on among fundamentalists or in most congregations? Not yet. But one of the most exciting thing in all the world is to see a fresh idea the mass of people have not yet accepted or understood.

One would think that these notions would be applauded by non-religionists. Me thinks there are those who don't want to acknowledge what is going on in the religious world because they get a thrill out of slamming fundamentalism, instead of celebrating what is coming to birth. It's called intellectual curiosity
