The video we watched this week, Seven New Age Beliefs and How to Recognize Them, indicates pantheism and New Age spirituality are having an increased influence on culture, as well as inside Christianity (and other established religions).

For your discussion this week, please list two reasons why you think that people find this view appealing and at least one reason why it cannot coexist with Christian teaching.
