different lists

>   OVERVIEW of TECHSPIRIT-L
>
>   As the electronic communication revolution gathers momentum, it is
>   becoming clear that we are in the midst of a global transformation
>   that will change human thought and experience at an unprecedented
>   rate.  One of the least expected but most important areas of culture
>   to be affected by the electronic revolution is religious and spiritual
>   life.  From traditional forms of western and eastern religion to
>   recent experimental groups and sects, individuals on a spiritual path
>   are searching for new methods of communication, including the Internet
>   and related techologies.
>
>   THEMES
>
>   We are starting TECHSPIRIT-L to explore the implications of
>   technospirituality.  Key questions include, but are by no means
>   limited to, the following:
>
>   --> What new spiritual possibilities does cybertechnology create?
>
>   --> How how are individuals and groups using computers and the
>       media to deliver their spiritual message, whatever it might be?
>       How does the technology affect their message?
>
>   --> What kinds of spiritual experiments are taking place on the Net
>       right now, and where will they lead?
>
>   Within this broad framework, no subject is out of bounds.  We want to
>   know what is already going on, what you think should be going on, and
>   what you fear might be going on.
>
>   GOALS
>
>   Our main goal is to push the exploration of these ideas as far and
>   deep as possible.  This could include staging rituals on the Net,
>   collaborating with cybershamans to achieve healing, or participating
>   in other improvisational experiments.  Depending on how the
>   experiments develop, we might use the discussions as the basis of a
>   book, which would disseminate your views and insights by citing
>   selected posts.
