Certainly in a country like Britain or America, any of the Western democracies, and to a large degree any country that can function at all, there's a presumption that each person is a locus of divine value. And you think, well, do you want to live in a society that assumes that or do you want to live in a ...
And I can't see, even speaking merely psychologically, that you can love someone and not treat them in some most fundamental sense like they're a divine locus of value. I think those are the same thing. And you can quibble about the linguistic representation necessary to derive that conclusion, but ...
And you will find that if you do that, to the degree you do that, you are treating each person as if they're a divine locus of value and responsibility. And that's a terrifying thing too, because I read something once, I don't remember who said it, but God is a circle whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere.

And I read commentaries on that idea
indirectly, obliquely, by Dostoevsky and Solzhenitsyn,
Jung as well, perhaps above all else, stating that...
- We are each a center of the world.*
- We each have a cosmic role to play.*
And you can think about it this way,
and this is a useful way to think about it you have potential within you to match
the potential that's without, let's say, and we all upbraid ourselves and call
ourselves out on our failure to manifest that which was that which is within us.
And so here's a proposition for you.
The world is languishing to the degree that you are not all you could be.
And that could really be the truth.

And to the degree that we're made
10:38
in the image of God and made in the image of Logos and also the entity that has
10:44
to undergo the tragic death that's represented by Christ and maybe
10:48
the encounter with Hell, that's part of the story of the resurrection.
10:53
That's us.
10:54
That's what we face.
And that could really be the truth.

Hey Patrick,
Thank you very much for sharing this. I listened to the interview a few days ago and have watched the clips several times since then. I’m stoked about Jordan’s new project and this video & audio from Rhett is super interesting. I shared the interview with Tadas and Vlad during our breakout room on Wednesday and mentioned it to Chris Barnes during a helios twitter space today. I also started curating a page at edencreators.com/jordan with notes and related resources. I recommend listening the whole interview if you haven’t yet, it’s incredible!
