Seandor, this was a most valuable piece for me to read today. From your reference to Don Scotus, and binary thinking, I'm assuming that you've read Fr. Richard Rohr's work.

Too much for me to comment on, the thoughts and urgings too immediate. I need to reflect on your piece some more.

Rohr once said "Religion is for those who fear hell. Spirituality is for those who've been there."

Climbing out of a dark night is a journey with great reward once you see the sun once again. Peace to you, and thank you.
