To avoid despair, one embraces a view in which the Universe is divinized? The quest for vision by Timothy Scott Bennett (EB)
Seeking one's place in Creation, beyond ourselves but not quite yet transcendent -- the post-Christian man may become dissatisfied with himself or with the human race as the ultimate source of meaning. The author mentions the "gods" but does he really believe in their existence? Or is it just a rhetorical device?
