Theseus
I am a software developer, a Neoplatonist philosopher, a writer, a mystic, and a flawed, struggling human being seeking unity of knowledge and being. Man is born a slave but everywhere appears free. God is the center that is everywhere and nowhere. Existence is suffering but the underlying current of life is peace beyond understanding. There are no good or bad people; there are only good-bad people. Mankind is Duality personified. "We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express" Rom 8:18 "The Twenty-First century will be religious or there won't be one" - Albert Camus "Deep thinking is attainable only by a man of deep feeling" - Coleridge "When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live life." - Greg Anderson
