If it can be said to play the role of the watchmaker in nature, it is the blind watchmaker.
self errors intuition

selfish compassion people
How far does one combine resistance to over-control with social justice, i.e. tolerable living for people in general?

And so, without some integration of the feminine, usually you never get to the mystical level. Richard Rohr
