This book offers a new approach to comparative religion suggested by science fantasy interpretations of traditional religious teachings. Each chapter focuses on a basic religious theme, (God, Mediators, Ideal Community, and Human Destiny), that becomes part of a projected future theology that has been shaped by ideas from many religions and the "extraterrestrial imperative".
Contents: Religious Pluralism and the Extraterrestrial Imperative; Science Fantasy Visions of God; Extraterrestrial Messiahs from Inner Space; Interplanetary Kingdoms for God; Human Destiny and Sacred Science; The Emerging Shape of Cosmic Religion; Bibiography.

William W. Mountcastle is M.L. Tipton Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of West Florida in Pensacola.
