“Abaddon (Hebrew אבדון Avaddon, Greek Apollyon, Latin Exterminans, Coptic Abbaton, meaning “A place of destruction”, “The Destroyer”, “Depths of Hell”) in the Revelation of St. John, is the King of tormenting locusts and the angel of the bottomless pit. (KJV, Rev. 9:1-11). The exact nature of Abaddon is debated.”

“Art, like religious faith in general and prayer in particular, has the power to help us transcend the fragmented society we now in habit. We live now in a Babel of antagonistic tribes—tribes that only speak only the languages of race, class, rights, and ideology. That is why the intuitive language of the imagination is so vital. Reaching deep into our collective thoughts and memories, great art sneaks past our shallow prejudices and brittle opinions to remind us of the complexity and mystery of human existence.”

//do you think man has to experience sin in his freewill and also experience redemption from that sin to be complete in his created nature.
//man is close to God through creation, but ripped away because of sin, then pulled close and held tight in lovely redemption. only then would i have knowledge of good and evil, endured with my body and spirit. with this experiential separation, can we love God more because we endured that which is his antithesis?

“Witness the miniscule size of the art department at any Christian college. With the exception of the music conservatory, the arts are restricted to an inconspicuous cranny, lest any would-be contributor stumble upon some naked Venus.”

“Out sacramental “mindset” has taken on many of the characteristics of our post-Industrial, consumerist society. In this society, the beautiful has become the pretty, goodness has become duty, and truth has become the verification of data. Our lives have been flattened and our symbolic expression has become yet another sub-language.”
—Susan A. Ross, “The Aesthetic and the Sacramental”
