Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism
The continuity between the old faith and the perspective of SS is something I still aren't seeing. This seems to be a common result with the various interactions I've seen here. There is quite the leap from "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved" to "Strive for hig...

Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism
Anthony, Can you just say a few words on what significance this has for you? If there is a progressive transformation in humanity's understanding and relationship with the Divine, which I would say could not be made more plain for anyone who examines the whole corpus of OT and NT without modern pre...

Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism

Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism
As a sort of quick and dirty phenomenological approach to this question, one could start by experiencing their current linear sequence of thoughts. For ex. right now I have thoughts condensing related to 'how to phenomenologically illustrate the Lord to Anthony'. These are linearly experienced as t...

Re: Symbolic thinking, Anthroposophy and Transhumanism
Who or what is the Lord in your polytheistic universe? What I read in these words: "Who or what" = "I don't prefer to be invited out of the anthropomorphic perspective". "polytheistic" = "I prefer to look at images at a 1-pixel resolution. Any resolution above 1 i...

Re: A Disconnect
If spiritual science and the views expressed here were dissociated from the religious traditions, particularly Christianity, then these issues that I'm highlighting wouldn't have the same gravity.

Re: A Disconnect
Cleric, I've read your response here a number of times in the days since you posted it and it is finally started to resonate. Much of what you write is irrefutable.
