RT @nick_routledge: @RasooolAkbari @jbralston On holistic experience, essentially Thomistic 'intuition of being', Richard Rohr: "Ideas are not a problem, but a true inner experience is something else: “full-access knowing”—prerational, nonrational, rational, and transrational all at once. [It] refuses to be reductionistic.”
@CACRadicalGrace @RichardRohrOFM Indeed, the identical heresy of the scientific method or, as Thomas Berry encapsulates it, the "downward reductionism of the mechanists and the upward reductionism of the spiritualists.” No wonder the call for a New Reformation. A New Reconcilation, then? ?s=20&t=jygN9r6anfFtNTRziHKfyA

Copy of quote tweet: Nick Routledge 3/ But what if lived experience of the One Life isn’t actually a form of distance-learning? What if the minute particulars of life represent the immediate, transcendent ground of the overarching veracity of a vast, mostly unseen, singular, energy event? Quote Tweet Nick Routledge · ...reveals the universe not to be a collection of objects but, as #PaulDavies puts it, "an inseparable web of complicated energy patterns in which no one component has reality independently of the entirety; and included in the entirety is the observer." - Quantitative Romanticism 12:59 PM · Jun 16, 2021
