      When you say Watts was involved in the church, I only ever sense a playful chastisement of that theology going from his lectures alone.

      he went to a prestigious religious boarding school in England, later getting a masters degree at a theological seminary, became on ordained christian priest, and goes deep into christian theology in some of his works his life's work was to reconcile Christianity and Buddhism

      whether he actually succeeded at that is a different question, since he seemed to abandon serious belief in Christianity later in life, which is when he wrote and recorded most of his more popular works frankly I think he pretty much rolled his own theology by the end

      most of his work I am familiar with was in the form of audio recordings, many out of order from different works, so I don't know how to locate most of it easily one of his books seems focused on catholic mysticism. I have not read it, but maybe relevant? https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Ritual-Christianity-Alan-Watts/dp/0807013757 …

      i recall some interesting discussion of the myths of genesis, the fall from heaven, and metaphor of the devil, primarily the devil which resides in each man, as useful reflective practice

      he is broadly supportive of a mythically centered Christianity, but felt the modern church abandoned real spiritual practice he talked about christian meditative practices of the middle ages(?) having been actively buried by the orthodoxy, which was a mistake

      I recall this, he held a retreat in a church and created a new observance that reflect a more honest interpretation.

      definitely sounds closer to living tradition to me he chastises Christianity, but out of love and a desire to restore it and help people i think this is why his work resonated deeply for me when i learn about old Christianity i feel like the modern church i saw is a cruel joke

      he also make light of all the other traditions he brazenly strolls through, steals the best ideas, and then throws them all at ontological boundaries simultaneously so the listener gets the point (hopefully) i swear he will roll through 5 different traditions in one sentence
