STAGE I:
Chaotic, Antisocial. Frequently pretenders; they pretend they are loving and
pious, covering up their lack of principles
STAGE II
Formal, Institutional, Fundamental. Beginning the work of submitting themselves to principle-the law, but they do not yet understand
the spirit of the law
STAGE III
Skeptic, Individual, questioner, including atheists, agnostics and those scientifically
minded who demand a measurable, well researched and logical explanation.
Although frequently "nonbelievers," people in Stage
III are generally more spiritually developed than many content
to remain in Stage II.
STAGE IV:
Mystic, communal. Out of love and commitment to the whole, using their ability
to transcend their backgrounds, culture and limitations with all others, reaching toward the notion of world community
and the possibility of either transcending culture or
belonging
to a planetary culture desiring to enter
into the mystery of uncertainty, living in the unknown. |
