"Behold: the tree grows still, though the city is dead. Within all that is mortal, there is the seed of immortality, for it is an immortal that fashioned it from chaos and void." Being a humble man of little wisdom, I asked: "Great Uriel, we are not allowed to eat..."

No civilization is authentic, monolithic, pure; the exact opposite is true. Look at your average Western nation: its numbers..."

Proud of them nevertheless. Archive now incomprehensibly huge, still missing thousands of works, impossible to truly finish. Work already commenced on a sorting program to help catalogue the archive resources in our absence, but like everything else it has its foibles. Talked to Alexandra. Talos going well.

Why would a loving God inflict such pain and suffering on good, kind people? If truly there is a personal God... how can He be the same God who will subject those children..." current

Dick discusses the two themes that are most central to his work: "What is reality?" and "What is an authentic human being?" His speculations and experiences will seem extraordinary to a reader unfamiliar with his work, yet despite..." current

But it is difficult to agree with this view. If any idealist philosop..."

Everyone who would like to write about philosophy or spirituality, especially to make some kind of grand statement about the nature of the body and the soul, should first experience a really bad tooth infection. I don't just mean a slight toothache, I mean the kind of hardcore infection that h..." current

He was, it would seem, particularly concerned with what we now call tetrominoes, seeing in them a reflection of the tetragrammaton and the Greek..." current
