We only need to understand that words and ideas matter.
The seminal idea of cosmic agape is the Logos Spermatikos……. is the gleam in the eye
of the I Am.
The Princess
is the glue holding it all together…… she is the cosmic Entangler…….. spinning the web of Creation.
Joe has some difficulty understanding all of this.
But he has the power to help to bring all of us around…… even our very own coprolalic Chivo
.
If the Lord gives you lemons
, you had better learn how to make lemonade……. or, in this case…… goat
cheese
.
Have we the slightest doubt that God knows all about making Lemonade?
She has just been waiting, ever so patiently, for all her little lemons
to reach their individual peak of ripeness…….. before plunging us into the cosmic Juicer…… to begin the process of fermentation.
The Internet, of which Joe was a very early facilitator, will play a crucial role in the magic 🪄 to come.
Dropping a mustard seed of truth, strategically, into our supersaturated solution will be all it takes to form the cosmic Chrysalis.
The strategem is already in place.
If Joe Firmage cannot rise to this occasion, I don’t know who could.
All we need is the secret 🤫 sauce……. oh, wait, we already have the secret 🤫 sauce.
The secret sauce is also known as stone soup
.
1500……
It seems that I need permission from the Foot*** and the foot 🦶, in order to visit the Princess
and talk to Rob.
Both feet may be the same One, for all that chick
knows.
Yes, we just need a mustard seed of Truth strategically placed.
The truth is that we are looking at the world upside down, backwards and inside out.
That would seem like quite a trick, but we have no peers, when it comes to tricking ourselves.
2010………
So….. progress is a strange animal…..
We have come to take it for granted.
Joe Firmage, along with many others, takes it as a modern day religion.
He is challenging us to push our blue sky dreams to the limit.
But even Joe has come to the conclusion that there must be a limit to material progress.
Eventually we will turn inward toward spiritual matters, but not in the foreseeable future.
We still have generations, perhaps millennia, to go, before we can finally turn to the spiritual.
There are all those worlds in all that space that demand to be explored…… perhaps, if only to be re-explored, afresh, following in the footsteps of our cosmic ancestors.
This is our material imperative that must be fulfilled before we can rest on our laurels.
The only disagreement that Joe and I have is in the matter of timing.
Well, no, it does go deeper to the problem of dualism.
Metaphysical dualism is an occupational hazard of the prophetic traditions…… where we tend to make a strict distinction between Creator and Creation.
It is simply blasphemous to suppose that such distinctions could be blurred.
But this is where personalism comes in to upset the apple cart of our conventional distinctions between science and religion.
Of course, the believers in the hypothesis of Strong Artificial Intelligence believe that we are at the threshold of a quantum computer, or such, that will break open the gates of Heaven…… that will transform the physical into the metaphysical….. as we approach the Kurzweil Singularity.
Joe and his cosmic fellow travelers have difficulty believing that we already live beyond the Kurzweil threshold.
This view is akin to the Boltzmann Brain hypothesis…… that somehow we are creatures of the cosmic Mind that we are living in a simulation.
It is not difficult to mash up the metaphysical speculations of Nick Bostrom, Sean Carroll, Ray Kurzweil, etc………
These speculative physicists/philosophers/metaphysicians are, in effect, attempting to mash up the scientific, prophetic and mystical traditions.
It is precisely at the end of that rainbow
where the best possible world resides.
If I managed to get there slightly ahead of the herd, it is only because of the Princess, my alleged goddaughter…… cherchez la femme.
Après nous….. la Deluge.
And it is Joe Firmage, who, as Foot*** suggests, is perfectly capable of leading us to that pot of gold.
Do I hear any better ideas?
Monadnock
beckons……..
You might even speculate that a mountain
goat
ought to be able to figure this out……. go figure…… Monadnock is barely a revision of Cold Mountain.
chick
will be relieved to be able to let the historians and theologians hash which, if any of us, answers to john 16.
