youtube.com/watch?v=16JS6ILrHLU&t=1178sSpace God with JD LyonhartGrail Country2024-08-24 | I welcome theologian @JDLyonhart back to the channel to discuss his latest book, Space God. JD was previously on Grail Country discussing his book on the Trinity, Monothreeism. His newest book explores the idea of Divine Space proposed by the Cambridge Platonist Henry Moore, which influenced Sir Issac Newton. While not committing himself to Moore's position, he explores how it might be updated to work without overturning modern physics. You can purchase a copy of Space God at Amazon:
JD has a daring, playful spirit and a sharp intellect and I hope you all enjoy the conversation as much as I did. You can also find his podcast Spiritually Incorrect spirituallyincorrectpodcast.com/podcast

Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.
Meister Eckhart
Joshua Luke Smith - Lucretius
The void
The untamable, unreachable, unexplainable void
And I would tell you that it's nothing
But to define it as that which is not, I would first have to conceive of everything
As if I hold within my mind the pale blue dot in all of its complexity ever-changing
Like landscapes through generations
And I've built cities in the wilderness
They pollute the skies above them, but distract from the barren wastelands beneath them, and somеtimes that's enough
When thе darkness of the evening settles on my skin and my thoughts within
Though silence still sounds like howling winds, oh, just to be lost again
This earth that seems so wide is but the shore that breaks a cosmic tide
Where in one second the beam of light travels 186,000 miles, but it fails to reach me
Oh, can it find the space within my soul?
The black hole made of infinity?
I've been so desperate to know myself within the terror of my own mystery
If we are beings made from the stars, then we are the cosmos incarnated
We are nothing becoming something
We are the void within skin and faces, oh, I'm terrified with amazement
Astronomy has become the practise of my theology
I have studied what is vast and what is intricate
I found no man looks to the stars to grasp them in his hand
But to face space and find his place in the wisdom of the infinite
So bring me the heretics and the pagans
I read the holy book from Genesis to Revelation and found God through Carl Sagan
It's as if the more we try to explain Him, the more we tame Him
I have as much interest in a God that fits in boxes and upon pages as I do lions inside of cages
Let what is wild remain wild
You can't colonise the Divine
Nor can you confine your own existence in space and time
We are looking up at stars that died and yet the light still shines through night skies
Ain't it the same with our own lives?
We are here
In the sense of our essence
But our absence is as real as our presence
And space isn't filled with nothing, but the past lingering in the present
Oh, face the darkness
Stare into the black hole of your own soul and tell me what you see
Tell me there isn't colour
Of more beauty than you've ever seen
When I surrendered to the void
The blackness of my shame and grief
I found that what I feared the most had the power to make me free
When I surrendered to the void
The blackness of my shame and grief
I found that what I feared the most had the power to make me free

Jeremy and Shari discuss the interview with Fr. Roman Braga that is linked above. Unfortunately, due to copyright issues we were unable to include the clips we are discussing. If you watch the conversation linked here first, the following episode will make much more sense. Fr. Roman Braga has an incredible and a beautiful spirit.Bene-While Luke Stream - Vocation, Mature Masculine, Personalist Knowing, etc.Grail Country2024-07-27 | @joerogan & Bridget Phetasy - Fate, determinism, vision, mature masculinity, vocation
JRE & @JordanBPeterson #2180 - Postmodernism (MoFo vs Honest) and meta-narrative and academics or scholasticism vs personalist knowledge. False dichotomy? Too much emanation, not enough emergence.
Couple points: 45:00 minute (Enlightened Responsibility) and 2:02:22 (Mental health, nominalism, and personalist integration - aka maturity or integrity) "Everything in its proper (right, Radiohead) place"
