The Gaia Religion embodies the spirit of love as part of everyday life by dreaming about one's divine role within the setting of a network of Neutopian Ecocities. Our task is to envision an Ordered World which has evolved to the point of using high-technology for the high purpose of creating sustainable arcologies (architect Paolo Soleri's word combining architecture and ecology). What is Neutopia? Neutopia is a product of centuries of creative thought. It is the heroic quest to build the Ideal Neutopian World where the individual has the freedom to shape the collective consciousness in positive directions. The human species has never created a world of arcologies. In order to survive in harmony with nature, we must begin to do so. Neutopia provides us with an educational program and social architecture which orders the world in a new way. The poem _The Way to Neutopia_ is a comprehensive vision of the principles of Neutopian thought. How is Neutopia to be born? Neutopia trusts in the power of Gaia (erotic mysticism) to connect like minds together so that we have a new bases of understanding. Neutopia is the poetic reality of life. It re-sacralize's life and is an alternative and more meaningful reality than is possible under the mechanical worldview of the Newtonian era. Through the alchemical union of the GAIA MESSIAH, a non-sexist marriage of true minds, a new sacred pattern is unveiled as the split between female and male energies reunite to form the union of the telepathic hermaphrodite. Consequently, all souls can then take their innate places within the new religious actualization hierarchy of the Tree of Life. The religion of Neutopia is Gaia, the microbial Superorganism, the life-force of the planet which is responsible for recycling the dead, regulating the weather, and maintaining life. The philosophic loving couple, whose purpose is to create and reign the just social order, are the cultural symbols of Neutopia. They are the kiss of peace. What is the lovolution? Lovolution is a world-wide revolution, the evolution of revolution, a romantic movement which ushers in a paradigm of wisdom. The lovolution feeds the hungry, cures the sick, provides temporary bioshelters to the needy, and educates the global population to the benefits of Neutopian idealism. In other words, Neutopia is a millennium movement which creates Heaven on Earth, and Earth in Heaven. What is the basic ideology of Neutopia? Neutopia recognizes that all the world problems are interconnected and that they are all caused by our misunderstand of the erotic love. Because of our misunderstanding, we live in a racist, sexist and classic worldview controlled by the plutocracy and its sexist mythology of the Greco-Judeo-Christian-Islamic-Buddhist-Hindu- Shintoist-Marxist traditions. The ideology of True Love crumbles the false gender stereotypes so that a new women and man--the hetero-techno sapien can be born. What is the Neutopian Transversity? The Neutopian Transversity transforms the global Internet into a online center of self-education. We have been evolving away from the idea of a single university as the place of academic life, to now, where the Neutopian Transversity creates an interlinked Global Community of Scholars who are working in unison to solved the ancient social problems of civilization which are destroying the earth's species. The purpose of the Neutopian Transversity is to guide the World Computer Data Base so that we know the right questions to ask in order to receive the information that we need. Our task is to build the virtual world of our most noble dreams so that we have the social and physical architecture to build them in real life. What form of governance structure is manifested in Neutopia? Neutopia is a democracy/meritocracy form of education/governance. Democracy cannot function without teachers who have been called to save the human race. These teachers are the brains cells of the Neutopian ecocites, the meritocrats, whose job is to transmit the ideas of the new cyberculture. The cyberculture or Nexus communities are communities where the built environment is design around the computer. Cyberculture is now coming together as the old order falls apart. Nexus communities are where people pursue their intellectual passions in intentional communities that are link together to transform the Global Internet into deschooled learning webs. In Neutopia, there is a balance between the collective and the individual. Centralized systems of communication are fed by decentralized communication. Email makes it possible so that theoretically everyone can be able to participate in the Global Forums allowing the meritocrats, individuals who come up with the new ideas for the commonwealth, to become known and influence public behavior. These extraordinary thinkers of the age make up the Magnum Concilium (Great Council). These leaders of scholarship, oversee the work of the World Production Teams. What role does science and technology play in Neutopia? Science and technology make it possible for us to engineer the Neutopian arcologies. The role of technology is to construct the new ecocites so that we can create a leisure society necessary for the world democracy/meritocracy model, or what has been termed the spiritual democracy, to be established. This will require that most of the manual labor will be done by robots. The role of science is to teach us about our physical environment in order to create a society which has an infinite curiosity about human nature as well as a society which understands the limits of the environment and the mortal aspects of our lives. The purpose of the Outer Space missions will be to work on solving the problems of Planet Earth. What is the relationship between ecology and Neutopia? The ecologist and the Neutopian thinker *must* work hand and hand. Neutopia channels the dreams of the good world and the social architecture required in order to clean up our polluted and corrupt world. The ecologist directs us to the toxic wastes which must be cleaned up. The goals of the ecologist and the Neutopian are the same: to create an environment where the balance of nature is maintained through a non-sexist mythos of erotic love. How does Neutopia relate to the United Nations? Neutopia is based on an entirely different social order than the UN. The UN works within context that the nations-states and the global corporations are the official dealers of power. In contrast, Neutopia is based on the fact that all the world is One Great Ocean and there is an indispensable unity which flows throughout the lands. Through the Ideology of True Love, Neutopia gives us a social structure of the One World Mind. Politics is no longer practiced as we move into the Neutopian Epoch where Her Word is finally liberated. Under the guidance of the erotic metaphor of love, power becomes the practice of artitics--a word combining art and politics--which advances the idea that government is not a science, but an art, the art of True Love. What is the natural sovereignty of womankind? The natural sovereign understands that within the power relationship of the loving couple, the female wisdom has the final word in matters of creating life. Therefore, she is the foundress of morality and the giver of cosmic laws of life. As we move beyond the era of patriarchy/matriarchy co-dependency, we begin to see a new partnership grew between the sexes. The partnership recognizes the relationship between immanence and transcendence as we begin to understand that we are biospiritual creatures. Is there money in Neutopia? No, everyone has an equal credit system for their basic human needs. Also, everyone has a Internet computer account for their spiritual needs. Simply put, money was a bad idea started by some greedy patriarchal priest at the temple Juno Moneta. It is an idea which needs to be put to death. Since Neutopia is energized by solar power which comes free from the sun, the economics of sustainable society is also based on freedom. Everyone shares in and contributes to the Global Commonwealth. The world's natural resources are accounted for in the Earth Bank. What about family values in Neutopia? In Neutopia, the best teachers both women and men are the ones primarily responsible for early childhood education. Children are now seen as humanity's greatest resource. Even though parents play a major part in the emotional up-bringing of the children, they are no longer the sole providers of the children's material well-being. People marry for one reason, the magnetic force of love pulling the two together to form the symbolic oneness of the Earth. The attraction is created through their unique self-gnowledge in connection with the complementary Self of the other. The question asked to all couples is: what is the purpose for your union? How are you to serve humanity through your divine connection? In Neutopia, it is recognized that the biological family bonds are not as important to people's happiness and emotional security as when individuals group themselves not for tribalistic reasons and blood relations, but bond because of common interests and planetary aspirations. Will I live in Neutopia in my life time? Neutopia is a state of mind which teaches us to that our only hope in rescuing humanity from its ignorance is to use our imagination. Only then, in the realm of the virtual space of Neutopian Thought, can we begin to see a way out of the global corporations image of development, the global shopping mall. Our assignment now is to refuse to accept this dystopian image of development. The soil and water are being ruin by the subdivisions of nuclear family housing and skyscrapers. It is essential that we begin to envision the evolution of the city, life in an arcology. Neutopia is a long-term vision which requires us to change the present reality so that we can being thinking holistically. Our short-term goal is to transform Cyberspace into a global system of spiritual democracy. The task is to make the Usenet University-Global Network Academy into the center of long-term visionary planning. When the lovolution has overthrown the corrupt ideology of global capitalism, then we can begin to implement the physical constructions of the long-term plan. What can I do to help foster Neutopian thought? We need people who can start a Media Moo on the Neutopian Transversity. We need artists who can create images of the galactic love gardens of Neutopia. This includes making visual images of starcities and underwater cities. We need computer experts who have the know how to set up newsgroups such as alt.neutopia, alt.religion.gaia, soc.neutopia, talk.politics.neutopia. I also need people who will work to help archive my doctrines and literature and set up an ejournal on the Neutopian Transversity. Also I need an outside literary agent, publisher, editor, and publicist, someone who will help me arrange a lecture series on Neutopian Thought and the Gaia World View. I need to be teaching a core of teachers about the ideology of true love so that they will be able carry the ideas around the world. In order for this world-wide renaissance to happened, we need artist who will begin creating rituals, songs, theater, symphonies around Neutopian ideas. Finally, we need architects who will draw the blueprints for the Nexus communities. In Neutopia, everyone's diverse talents and skills are needed so that we will have the way to make humanity a thriving biospiritual organism once again. Where do I write for more information? Our goal is to inspire one another to greater revelations about the Holy One, what Mitchell Porter as termed as the "inspiracy." As we begin connecting with each other on a deeper psychic level, the level of or inner sensory perception, our unique soulmates appear in our lives making Virtual/Reality real. We encourage everyone who is interested in the salvation of the human experiment to take their part in making this social theory a 21st century reality.
