“We are moving! We are going forward!” This is a direct quote from “The Future of Man” written by Teilhard de Chardin, Image Books, New York, 1959. It is the introduction of the first chapter and moves me every time I read it. I wanted to share as proof that matters pertaining to “Truth” remain […]

Axial Age? In my life I realized that there should be a way for us to have proof of a Supreme if there were one. There are too many things that take place in our experience that we not have some kind of evidence to rest our curiosity upon calming the spirits. This thought process […]
