The Gaia Papers is a fifty-page treatise that applies a lens of radical feminist metaphysics to explore the age-old question of the nature of evil. Confronting the gendered nature of violence against women and children and the patriarchal systems that promote this violence, The Gaia Papers interrogate the place of the Goddess in this dismal cosmogony. “I think Gage is onto something here by combining the process of healing used by Mary Baker Eddy with her radical feminist activism… The Gaia Papers has the potential to begin a transformative conversation about spirituality, healing and women..." —Dr. Deidre Michell, author of Christian Science: Women, Healing, and the Church (University Press of America, 2009). http://carolyngage.weebly.com/the-gai...
