First line
WHEN CHRISTIANS FIRST DISTINGUISHED themselves from pagans, the word "pagan" meant "country-dweller."
From the rear cover
That human beings stand separate from a nature that must be controlled, that the mind is somehow superior to the body, and that all sexuality entails a seduction - a danger and a problem - are all assumptions upon which much of Western thought and culture is based. And all of them in some way underlie our exploitation of the earth, our distrust of emotions, and our loneliness and reluctance to love.
