Goddess Remembered

Synopsis

Merlin Stone discusses the reverence for the goddess as a central figure in ancient cultures, tracing its roots back 35,000 years. Scholars and activists, including Carol Christ and Jean Bolen, connect the decline of goddess-worshipping societies to modern environmental crises. They argue that the shift from nurturing to conquest has led to a disconnection from nature. The film emphasizes the need for a return to these ancient beliefs to address contemporary issues, marking the first part of a three-part series.
