The Imaginative Conservative: Homesick in the Cosmos
The modern narrative of the universe suggests that it is a purposeless chaos machine, where order arises from random processes rather than divine intention. This perspective contrasts sharply with traditional creation myths that attribute order to a purposeful agency, often represented by gods.
As society increasingly embraces this mechanistic view, it risks dehumanizing individuals, reducing them to mere components of a larger system. The loss of a spiritual framework in understanding existence leads to a sense of alienation and disconnection from both the cosmos and oneself.
