The following must be understood to grasp what is going on and what the trajectory is for the future. Within global Jewry, there is a divide that can be coarsely spoken of as two groups: Western or Liberal Jewry and Eastern or Orthodox Jewry. As the terms imply, Western Jews are based in the West […]
It has been supposed by Christians that the variety of God’s names in the Old Testament—i.e., “El”, “Elyon”, and “Elohim”—is actually textual evidence for the Trinity. The issue with this explanation is that ‘El,’ ‘Elohim,’ and ‘Elyon’ are not uniquely Hebrew words, so to understand their meaning requires a broader contextual understanding and cannot be […]
Earlier on Twitter I posted: Gods do not have “functions”, they are not cogs. Thinking of them in terms of their utility to either us or the cosmos is to invert the real relation. Too often is this “function” theology espoused, it is not reverent. As I received several replies asking for clarification, I will […]
Ever since time immemorial, every human society had established traditions regulating the relations between men and women because the laissez-faire approach to relationships the West has adopted at the behest of the Sexual Revolution is completely unhuman and dysfunctional. Humans do not have the constitution to be anarchic, free associating, atomic individuals. Humans are intrinsically […]
This article is a relatively drawn out series of propositions intended to be a ‘from basics’ primer for belief in the immaterial. It endeavours to leverage reason and observation for the purpose of deducing the strong case for there being immateriality, and that this immaterial existence encapsulates the entirety of the material realm, and to […]
Since it’s the topic of the moment: what is the moral position on abortion? It’s in fact not a very complex question. To begin with, we must quickly dispense with the absurdity sometimes argued that the foetus has no true life of its own; such is impossible to be argued. Irrespective of the foetus’ reliance […]
It is common to treat our self-consciousness as being synonymous with the soul-mind itself. We know our bodies to be our own, but we do not have knowledge of our bodies in a way that differs from the way we know the bodies of other people. In both cases, our body and the bodies of […]
Few know, but titans and gods are truthfully one and the same. Saturn and Jove are of one unbroken and undifferentiated existence preserved in divinity, indistinguishable from one another in their real essence. So why are titans and gods treated as separate deities? Why tradition has distinguished titans from gods is owed to the ‘ontological […]
Originally a Twitter thread made in response to the latest round of Christians gloating over their saint Boniface: Regardless of how much we’re told that ‘technically speaking’ Christian theology imbibes the world with the image of God, the attitudes Christianity gestates in its followers have always been against the world. It’s evidence the spirit of […]
Platonic attraction is in seeking self-completion. Via love between complements, each part of the union is conjoined to produce a superior wholeness, and it is by this that each become greater participants in the totality of goodness, and so expand their own goodness. And so when we speak of cosmogenesis, goodness is unfolded through a […]
