Dear John B.,
I (more or less) repeat what I wrote 28/4 17:02 +0200:
Your 16/5 7:58 +1000 descriptions of mystics and social activists may be
quite true for a lot of them, but they don't fit (at least) Quakers in my
experience.
I hate to make this into a commercial for Quakerism (again), but I can't
help it that Quakerism is THE example that I know that proves to me that
mysticism and social activism can be combined. Even if some Quakers
fall in the category of 'mystics' as you describe them and some others fall
in the category of 'social activists' in your description, most of them and
Quakerism as a whole combines these categories.
Please refer back to what I wrote before about Quakers (24/6/01 23:07 +0200,
29/6/01 23:37 +0200 and 4/7/01 15:03 +0200) and let me know if you need me
to expand on that to explain my 'proof' of the possibility to combine
mysticism and social activism.
With friendly greetings,
Wim
