Existential theology

Existential theology...unmasks the spurious social responsibility by means of which human beings hide their true souls, their true being, and take cover in the alien world of intellectual existence as individual selves.

Understanding

"I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant!"  Has this ever happened to you?

Absolute reflections

Absolute reflections

What is required to understand my thought in regard to reality is a major paradigm shift on the part of my reader. The objective world that he or she views must be seen as existing under a wholly new light, a light that is, in fact, an absence of light. The world of humankind's making is plunging into darkness, a darkness that is promulgated as the true light. Seen in its true perspective light is light and darkness is darkness, but seen in modern man's perspective, darkness is light. All sign of progress toward this light is, in truth, sign of decay into darkness.

The soul's conscious evolution

• The subjective, tribal immediacy of the heathen, acknowledging the absolute as mystery, is replaced by the objective, individual reflection of the pagan which annuls immediacy and subjectivity and denies the absolute. These two evolving forms of consciousness, perceiving only the physical universe, reach a measure of their fulfillment in the spiritual consciousness of the mature soul which understands the absolute transcendentally as its own being.

absolute/relative

Of course, we cannot reflect on absolutes before believing that the absolute is, which is not to say that the absolute exists since existence may be defined precisely as the relative, but that the absolute is transcendent to existence as such. This is one of the major confusions of modern thought, this inabilty to distinguish between existence and being, between the relative and the absolute, between ethics and morals. It is also the reason that the laws of relativity can  never frame justice.

Yesterday hurrah for the Greeks - today Oy Veh!

How sad for the Greek people is the refusal of the Oligarchs to allow them to express their righteous anger in a referendum. Now they will become more deeply embroiled in debt and completely lose their ethnicity as Europe descends into feudalism
