Yesterday I received a response to my DM on “What a President Would Say if He Were the Anti-Christ” and I want to share it here. |
This is unusual for sure, but so is our situation in America at this moment when a coup is underway in our government—a moment far more incendiary than January 6—though of the same vintage surely. The letter and its contents bear good news because they show actions people can and

taking. I have great respect for the Indivisible Movement mentioned below that bears all the marks of a community of spiritual warriors, such as we have been meditating on lately.
Good Morning, Matthew and Team, I read your incredible reflection this morning and printed out the attached for
distribution, only with your permission!!!! Your list is exactly what Project 2025 promised, and Trump, the puppet, is fulfilling the billionaires’ dream. Tomorrow night I’ll be attending an Indivisible Meeting on Cape Cod and would like to distribute the attached to members. We need to spread the word all
across our country! A friend also sent the Privacy Act of 1974 that individuals can use to file a complaint with Treasury. That I’m able to distribute.…. Blessings on all you’re doing to preserve our democracy, our Mother Earth, and world peace. |
See what the Indivisible movement is doing and join in the action HERE. | SAVE OUR
DEMOCRACY If you are concerned over Donald Trump giving an unelected individual, Elon Musk, access to your personal information as maintained by the Treasury Department, you have rights and can take |
action. Trump is enacting a coup against the United States of America. The Privacy Act of 1974 states: No agency shall disclose any record which is contained in a system of records by any means of communication to any person, or to another agency,
except pursuant to a written request by, or with the prior written consent of the individual to whom the record pertains……. Send this email with your signature to: privacy@treasury.gov
Dear Sir or Madam: I am making a civil liberties complaint under
the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 USC, 552a. It has been brought to my attention that Elon Musk and his associates, under the guise of a directive of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) (an IT office in the White House), have acquired access to Treasury Department Records in Systems of Records as defined in the Act. As an individual covered by the Act. I believe that there may be records about me in the Treasury Department systems, and I am concerned for the following
reasons: |
1. Elon Musk is not an elected official. 2. Even if Musk were an elected official, the System of Records Notices (SORNs) governing the Treasury Department Privacy Act systems do not allow for disclosure to Musk
and |

his associates per the Routine Uses. 3. Disclosure of personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive personally identifiable information (SPII) to Musk and his associates would be an unauthorized disclosure and therefore breach of
information. The Treasury Department must (1) quickly investigate what Privacy Act records that Musk and his associates have unlawfully accessed, (2) reveal to the public what unauthorized disclosures were made, (3) stop further access, (4) force any files acquired by Musk and his associates to be
returned and/or permanently destroyed, and (5) seek criminal penalties against Musk and his associates for violations of the Act. Sincerely, (Insert Name and Contact

Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh: Transforming Evil in Soul and Society
Visionary theologian and best-selling
author Matthew Fox offers a new theology of evil that fundamentally changes the traditional perception of good and evil and points the way to a more enlightened treatment of ourselves, one another, and all of nature. In comparing the Eastern tradition of the 7 chakras to the Western tradition of the 7 capital sins, Fox allows us to think creatively about our capacity for personal and institutional evil and what we can do about them. “A scholarly masterpiece embodying a better vision and depth of perception far beyond the grasp of any one single science. A breath-taking analysis.” — Diarmuid O’Murchu, author of Quantum Theology: Spiritual Implications of the New Physics |
|
The Pope’s War: Why Ratzinger’s Secret Crusade Has Imperiled the Church and How It Can Be Saved
The Pope’s War offers a
provocative look at three decades of corruption in the Catholic Church, focusing on Josef Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI. The final section in the book focuses on birthing a truly catholic Christianity. “This book should be read by everybody, not only for its ferocious courage, but also for its vision for what needs to be saved from the destructive forces that threaten authentic Christianity.” ~ Andrew Harvey, author
of The Hope. “In the gripping The Pope’s War, Matthew Fox takes an unwavering look at the layers of corruption in the Catholic Church, holding moral truth against power.” — Jason Berry, author of Vows of Silence: The Abuse of Power in the Papacy of John Paul II |
|
The Hidden Spirituality of Men: Ten Metaphors to Awaken the Sacred Masculine
To awaken what Fox calls “the sacred masculine,” he unearths ten metaphors,
or archetypes, ranging from the Green Man, an ancient pagan symbol of our fundamental relationship with nature, to the Spiritual Warrior….These timeless archetypes can inspire men to pursue their higher calling to connect to their deepest selves and to reinvent the world. “Every man on this planet should read this book — not to mention every woman who wants to understand the struggles, often unconscious, that
shape the men they know.” — Rabbi Michael Lerner, author of The Left Hand of God |

One River, Many Wells: Wisdom Springing from Global Faiths
Matthew Fox calls on all the world traditions for their wisdom and their inspiration in a work that is far more
than a list of theological position papers but a new way to pray—to meditate in a global spiritual context on the wisdom all our traditions share. Fox chooses 18 themes that are foundational to any spirituality and demonstrates how all the world spiritual traditions offer wisdom about each.“Reading One River, Many Wells is like entering the rich silence of a masterfully directed retreat. As you read this text, you reflect, you pray, you embrace Divinity. Truly no words can fully
express my respect and awe for this magnificent contribution to contemporary spirituality.” –Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit |

Order of the Sacred Earth: An Intergenerational Vision of Love and Action By Matthew Fox, Skylar Wilson, and Jen Listug
In the midst of global fire, earthquake and flood – as species are going extinct every day and national and global economies totter – the planet doesn’t need another church or religion. What it needs is a new Order, grounded in the Wisdom traditions of both East and West, including science and indigenous. An Order of the Sacred Earth united in one sacred vow: “I promise to be the best lover and defender of
the Earth that I can be.” Co-authored by Matthew Fox, Skylar Wilson, and Jennifer Berit Listug, with a forward by David Korten, this collection of essays by 21 spiritual visionaries including Brian Swimme, Mirabai Starr, Theodore Richards, and Kristal Parks marks the founding of the diverse and inclusive Order of the Sacred Earth, a community now evolving around the world. “The Order of the Sacred Earth not only calls us home to our true nature as Earth, but also offers us invaluable guidance and company on the way.” ~~ Joanna Macy, environmental activist and author of Active Hope. |
