wow! This looks really interesting! quote:
“What the #$BLEEP*! Do We Know?” says that science and spirituality are not different modes of thought, but are in fact describing the same thing. And it brings the power back to the individual man and woman as it demonstrates creation as the god-like capacity of every individual.
What interesting sychronicity! Last week I went to a storytelling about the creation of the uni-verse from a scientific perspective that incorporates spirituality or sacredness. I've been utterly consumed by a desire to learn more about this since it's exactly what I've always intuitively known but never had any idea that there was an ever growing movement of people exploring and teaching about. Right now I'm reading a book called "The Dream of the Earth" by an American monk named Thomas Berry which is just amazing.
I would love to see this movie but from what the site says, the nearest place to me it's playing is three hours away. quote:

 aaaaaaaawwwwwwwww mmmmaaaaaaaannn. I miss living in P-town.

I was an active Baha'i once, many yearsago, and one of their teachings is that science and spirituality are like the two wings of a bird, both neceassary for control and flight. Lanny IP: Logged |

Happyr,I went to the Bagdad for a few candle light vigils at the start of the Iraq war. I also went to a few here in Vancouver at Esther Short Park. P-Town (and I) welcome you back any time you wish to return! How long did you live here? ------------------

I really want to see this. I wonder if it when it will be released on video and if we will be able to purchase it? IP: Logged |

I loved the Mission and the Bagdad. I heard that McMinnimums also opened up another theatre / bar-grill in NE Portland near Lombard Street (Actually only a few blocks from Concordia University). Nothing says fun like being able to eat dinner and drink beer in a movie theatre. LOL IP: Logged |

Hi LibraSparkle,I lived in Portland for about 3 and a half years. I moved away last August. Happily, my son and I will be back for a visit in a few days. I'm going to Horning's Hideout to see The String Cheese Incident play for summer solsice! 
Yin, I'm hoping this movie comes out on video too cause that's my only chance too. Unless it's still playing at the Bagdad in a week or so while I'm visiting. It would be just my luck that it'll stop as soon as I get there. LOL

cool Harpyr - i'm jealous! i dunno when this thing will hit the east coast... our time in portland overlapped a bit - did you ever shop at people's co-op in southeast? i also loved The Tao of Tea and the spice shop in southeast. oh, and the Goddess Gallery. and Looking Glass bookstore downtown. and Annie Blooms. and...and...and...hrmph. i miss it. has anyone seen the movie Waking Life? i ran across a review through a link on the WhattheBleep site. it's an animated full length that delves into questions of waking/dreaming/death. very cool. i think it came out in 2000/2001.
