The Gathering will explore the shadow side of religion and state by watching the movie Constantine's Sword. Amazon has this to say about the movie:
Constantine's Sword is an astonishing exploration of the dark side of Christianity, following acclaimed author and former priest James Carrol on a journey of remembrance and reckoning. Warning of what happens when military power and religious fervor are joined, this new film from Oscar-nominated director Oren Jacoby asks: Is the fanaticism that threatens the world today fueled by our own deeply held beliefs?
A spirited discussion will follow the projection, led by Harold and Beth Peterson (who have the best shadow books on our society/culture). The movie starts at 5:30 pm, or shortly thereafter. Snacks and munchies are available free of charge.
