Rating:  - Worth the read if you're interested.
In academic, seminary thesis-style prose, Fox weaves together the insights of a variety of traditions to present a vision of today in terms of the Cosmic Christ. What this book lacks in humor it makes up for in resourcefulness, as Fox exhaustively cites mystics, scholars, theologians, saints, politicians, scientists, poets, the gospels, and Christ himself.

This is a book for serious students of the deeply mystical. It is not for everyone. The average fundamentalist Christian is much too low on the spiritual totem pole and too hypnotically programmed to be able to understand it. Matthew Fox speaks of truths that can only be learned directly from God through meditation and prayer, not through religious double-speak and church dogma. Fox gives us the Aquarian Age message that the Christ is born in each one of us and in His entire creation.
