A Voice in the Wilderness
Produced by: Tim Wilson
The Reverend Matthew Fox is a theologian who expresses ideas which make some people very nervous. When he was a Roman Catholic priest in the Domican Order, he made the Vatican nervous. His church superiors were a bit unsettled when Fox referred to God as Mother, Father, and Child, and compared the Roman Catholic church to a dysfunctional family. They were especially upset by his theological doctrine, one he calls "Creation Spirituality", which tries to bridge the split between body and spirit, and the antagonism between science and religion, by offering a world view which brings together science, mysticism, and art. The school he founded to spread his gospel, The Institute of Culture and Creation Spirituality in Oakland, California, offers studies in Asian, African, and Native American spirituality,as well as physics and the Wicca tradition, which is commonly known as witchcraft. In 1988 The Vatican ordered Rev. Fox to be silent-neither preach nor teach---and Canadian producer Tim Wilson spent the days leading up to the silence with Rev. Fox, for an intimate portrait of a priest questioning some of the foundations of his religion. (Rev. Fox was subsequently dismissed by the Dominican Order and became an Anglican priest; he continues to write and lecture widely and is still spiritual leader of the Creation Spirtuality movement).
