Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 7 | Sunday – August 2, 2026 D reamers are the men who made great leaps in history  and were remembered for their leaps, and so was the case for men such as Abraham ( אַבְרָהָם ) and Moses ( מֹשֶׁה ), in the Old Testament, the Tanakh ( תָּנָ״ךְ ), whom I will cover later in this " Bible Study series ", read " Dreaming ". Of course, then there are those men who are forgotten, but we are still aware of their leaps, and their fate is truly that of the abyss, at least if we only concern ourselves with the narrow purview of modern men, that of assuming that all significance should be defined by the individual, read " My Views on 'Genius' ". I suppose the difference between a legend and the man on the bottom of the abyss is memory? And in that case, it should be fitting to study the Bible, which of course is the intention of this series. Now, this will be the 7th part of this series, but before ...

Melencolia I By Albrecht Dürer Despair | Saturday – August 1, 2026 F or me, despair is really a process of change, and currently I am in that process.

This is the way of life and this is the way of nature, truly cyclical. The only hope you have for resurrection in this life is by your bloodline, read " Should You Create a Family? ", unless of course you seek higher knowledge . But since you are unlikely to seek, let alone receive higher knowledge, you are stuck in you...

Biblical ( תַּנַ״ךְ ) depiction of the flight from Sodom and Gomorrah The Afghanistan Matter | Friday – July 31, 2026 H ealth issues, again , continue to bother me, and if you want to read more about that, then click here . Again, because of these health issues, I remain compromised, which will affect my writing, but I am still going to attempt to answer the questions of my readers in the many letter that they (you) have submitted to me, but again because of this health issue that I am currently dealing with, I am not quite as effective as usual and I am not able to remain true to the fidelity of my writing, which means that you should expect a certain amount of drift away from the norm. Again too, this is a part of my so-called " Answering Readers series ", where I attempt to address the concerns of you my readers – welcome. As usual, I do not have too many rules in this series, but one rule I have is that when you submit a letter to me, you must use language that is appropr...
