After Daskalos returned to his armchair and was getting ready to continue our discussion I asked him whether the affliction of that man was due to karmic debts._ __ll illnesses are due to Karma,_ Daskalos replied. __t is either the result of your own debts or the debts of others you love.__ __ can understand paying for one__ own Karma but what does it mean paying the Karma of someone you love?_ I asked._ __hat do you think Christ meant,_ Daskalos said, __hen he urged us to bear one another__ burdens?__ __arma,_ Daskalos explained, __as to be paid off in one way or another. This is the universal law of balance. So when we love someone, we may assist him in paying part of his debt. But this,_ he said, __s possible only after that person has received his __esson_ and therefore it would not be necessary to pay his debt in full. When most of the Karma has been paid off someone else can assume the remaining burden and relieve the subject from the pain. When we are willing to do that,_ Daskalos continued, __he Logos will assume nine-tenths of the remaining debt and we would actually assume only one-tenth. Thus the final debt that will have to be paid would be much less and the necessary pain would be considerably reduced. These are not arbitrary percentages,_ Daskalos insisted, __ut part of the nature of things.

Design is a fundamental human activity, relevant and useful to everyone. Anything humans create__e it product, communication or system__s a result of the process of making inspiration real. I believe in doing what works as circumstances change: quirky or unusual solutions are often good ones. Nature bends and so should we as appropriate. Nature is always right outside our door as a reference and touch point. We should use it far more than we do.

A distinctive appearance and a simple set of characteristics lead to an extremely flexible brand. (pg. 38)

If gods are transcendent ideas, then the idea of a god IS a god.

A magical universe was so terrifying because it was so irrational. There was no cause and effect anywhere.

The Gospel presents us with the righteousness of Jesus Christ, who, in his earthly life, perfectly interpreted the word of his Father. In so doing he justified the fallible attempts of his people to interpret the word. The justification of our hermeneutics by the perfect hermeneutics of Christ is the motivation for us to strive for hermeneutical sanctification.

Logos (The Biblical Manuscripts/Canon of Scriptures) & Rhema (The Person/Life/Words/Death/Resurrection of Jesus Christ): The 'special' & 'ultimate' revelation of God. Without these revelations God would be unsearchable, unknowable, and inscrutable."~R. Alan Woods [2013]
