Thank you for introducing another philo...Chuckles,<br /><br />Thank you for introducing another philosopher. I was not familiar wuth Voegelin. I have much to read.<br /><br />Now that I know what it is, no. At least I don't think so. My, erm, musings, were more of a material rather than spiritual bent. I don't think we are going to see heaven on earth any time soon. Just a huge shake-up as we (deniers and disbelievers of the hype) grow and grow. My thinking is more like the fabled Hundredth Monkey Syndrome. After Monkey No 99, sudden realisation will erupt and more and more of us will say "Hang on a minute! This isn't right!"<br /><br />It has more to do with writers finding, and communicating a (different) truth and people finally comprehending that truth.<br /><br />On the other hand, I could be all the way wrong and I may just have wasted good money on high quality mind-enhancing drugs.<br /><br />Time, as always, will tell.<br /><br />CR.Captain Rantyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07839241144954596066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-65587938460078998432010-06-15T15:19:54.661+01:002010-06-15T15:19:54.661+01:00Illuminatus Trilogy popularised it, was quite popu...Illuminatus Trilogy popularised it, was quite popular on T shirts in my misspent youth.<br /><br /><br />Apparently originates here:<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Voegelin<br /><br />http://www.chaosmatrix.org/library/chaos/texts/ite.html<br /><br />I would venture to suggest that you are proposing an imminent immanentizing?Chucklesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-38251431591198170952010-06-15T11:34:24.108+01:002010-06-15T11:34:24.108+01:00I couldn't find a definition for "immanen...I couldn't find a definition for "immanentize" Chuckles.<br /><br />What does that word mean?<br /><br />CR.Captain Rantyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07839241144954596066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-40130217259044844072010-06-15T11:33:29.590+01:002010-06-15T11:33:29.590+01:00Thanks WfW.Thanks WfW.Captain Rantyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07839241144954596066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-222323983786216932010-06-15T11:28:24.716+01:002010-06-15T11:28:24.716+01:00Immanentize it then?Immanentize it then?Chucklesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-4512470983376275912010-06-15T11:25:41.382+01:002010-06-15T11:25:41.382+01:00Thoughtful post CR and well said.Thoughtful post CR and well said.Witterings from Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11349563961787006775noreply@blogger.com
