“Some twenty years ago, I purposefully began a journey to understand the world into which I was born. I began by reading the works of C.S. Lewis, Iain McGilchrist, A.W. Tozer, Jordan Peterson, Thomas Merton, and others. I learned to enjoy the creative work of journaling and the art of photography…and engaging in fellowship with brilliant minds exploring the culture we inhabit, allowing the necessary shifts to understand what is happening to the human race. I decided to post the content I had been writing in my journals to a blog site, to establish a digital record of my journey. I generally will say that I am writing for myself, adding to my worldview as I go, but if what I am sharing is helpful for someone to make sense of their life, we are all the better for it.”

A Cosmological Worldview

Before I conclude this “cosmological” problem, I want to express my belief that the historical aspect will present challenges for several reasons. Generally, we do not have access to many ancient manuscripts. The primary issue is that institutions like the Catholic Church hold the materials necessary to understand the history of the Western world specifically.

The Ontological Self

The OS is where most of us are today unless you are part of the Remnant, the body of Christ that has experienced restoration and transformation. The only way out of your condition is to get your neurology reset and pray that the Holy Spirit (HS) can wake you up and transform your very being, your very soul; otherwise, your existence rests as a compromised, dumbed-down objectified human being, unwise and no empathy for anyone else living in utter depravity.
