<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">As always, the central point is a
deceptively simple one: he was a psychiatrist. I don't mean this simply in a
professional sense. I mean it, if I may be permitted the word, in an
ontological sense. Applied to him "psychiatrist'' did not indicate a
specialized field of study, a career, a life's work; applied to him
"psychiatrist" summed up in four sharp syllables the totality of his
being. He was not so much a man engaged in the practice of psychiatry as he was
a psychiatrist to whom a body, a complex of more or less inconsequential
biological accidents and habits, had been appended.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">I don't say this in any pejorative sense.
As psychiatrists go he was a good one, perhaps even a great one. I don't really
know; as is usual in our age I have nothing to judge by but the facts. I here
submit those facts to general scrutiny:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">His clients included many of the most
illustrious figures of our culture---eminent lawyers, bankers, actors, actresses,
business leaders, rock musicians, socialites, writers, even several fellow
psychiatrists, in all, dozens upon dozens whose interior geologies showed the
inevitable flaws and strains, chips, cracks, fissures, and faults that the age
seems expressly designed to heighten and intensify in each of us.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">He adhered to no particular school. Trained
in the classical Freudian tradition, he had spent several years in Europe
studying under the Master's immediate heirs, but so omnivorous was his appetite
for scientific knowledge of the soul, so enormous was his capacity, that he had
absorbed all that had been thought, spoken, or written upon the matter, slighting
no discipline or tradition, however ephemeral or negligible it might seem to
his colleagues. This was the source, the wellspring, of his myth. To a Freudian
he seemed a fellow Freudian, to a Jungian a Jungian, to an Adlerian an
Adlerian, to an Eriksonian an Eriksonian. He understood gestalt theories and
practices more thoroughly than did men who had made them their life's study, and
he had mastered transactional analysis, logotherapy, milieu therapy, psychodrama,
and other modern doctrines and techniques so completely that often it seemed
inconceivable that he had not developed them himself. In his practice his
judgment was legendary. He knew instinctively when to analyze at length, when
to confront sharply, when to medicate, when to shock. He got results. Among his
associates (he hardly seemed to have peers) his words approached dogma. Even
when he spoke casually, off the cuff (over lunch and a drink, say), his every
sentence, his every pause, seemed ex cathedra. To say simply that he was highly
esteemed is to expose the poverty of language. His status was as close to that
of a sage as is possible in these difficult times.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">"The psyche is the fundamental ground
of all existence, all experience," he liked to say. "To know it
intimately is to know all that there is to know. These are fortunate times and
we are fortunate men, for to understand the soul and its operations no longer
requires the metaphysical cant to which our predecessors in this effort, for
lack of an objective science, were forced to resort."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Naturally he was rich. He owned his
office, a handsome suite in a prestigious part of the city. He had a large
apartment, comfortable but not extravagant, decorated in a rich but appropriate
style (he had a taste for works of African art --- carved tribal masks, primitive
statuettes, that sort of thing). Near the shore he owned an older home, which
he had had meticulously restored as a retreat. His single passion outside of
psychiatry was sailing.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">He was unmarried, perhaps because his work
left him so little time for social amenities other than the professional
conferences, at which he was always properly formal, strictly business. He was
invariably invited to present a paper at each such congress, and just as
invariably these papers were the high point of the gathering, centering as they
always did around a fascinating new interpretation of psychological fact or a
bold speculation so profound and far-reaching in its consequences that it
promised to provide abundant raw material for the psychiatric industry for some
time to come. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">One might imagine that his fame was as
far-reaching as were his speculations, but for many years this was not so. For
a long time, his renown encompassed only that relatively small universe that is
the psychiatric world, yet this limited recognition was sufficient for him. He
divided his time among his practice, the psychiatric congresses, and sailing,
using whatever remained to write an occasional article for the psychiatric
journals.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; tab-stops: 9.0pt 41.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>It was this last activity that fate chose as
her wedge. In one of these articles he proposed a revolutionary new theory of
the structure, function, and dynamics of the psyche. It was a complex as well
as an unorthodox interpretation of known facts, a great leap of the imagination.
He wrote with unusual passion, like a man who feels that he has stumbled onto a
great secret. He spoke of "hitherto fore secret recesses of the psyche,
individual and collective" where the "true divine fire" had been
hidden from the Promethean advance of science. He alluded to a secret language
of the psyche, "a grammar of incoherence, as yet unrecognized,
undeciphered by conventional theorists."<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>He spoke of a "mechanism of the soul, a court of inevitable
justice," the function of which was to punish incursion as though it were
in fact blasphemy. He boldly split from much of the "objective" psychiatric
thought of the past and just as boldly reshaped what remained.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; tab-stops: 20.25pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">From this sweeping
technical speculation arose one of those savage feuds common in the
intellectual community, a battle waged on paper only, but a battle no less
unrestrained than the most open and furious bloodfeud of the city streets. A
colleague, a West Coast theorist and practitioner, was bothered by this odd,
"reactionary" interpretation and wrote a long article in rebuttal for
the next edition of the journal in question. For most of this rebuttal he
limited himself, as was professionally appropriate, to the specific theoretical
matter at hand. He refuted our doctor (he felt) point by point. He cited the
lack of data, the nearly metaphysical nature of the argument. He drew the hard
conclusions of the theory, showed how, if accepted, it must retard the progress
of psychological inquiry, "perhaps even of civilization itself," many
decades. He was thorough and (he felt) he was fair. Still, it must be granted
that among those many pages there were two sentences (perhaps three) which, if
not in content then in tone, could conceivably have been interpreted as an
implied personal assault. I say could have been so interpreted, for the way in
which such men assault one another is perhaps as subtle and as ultimately inconclusive
as the discipline to which they give their lives. Any reader who takes the
trouble to visit the library will discover that it requires several intensive
readings and the guidance of one well versed in the language of such matters to
uncover the offending sentences, which, to our doctor, seemed as inflammatory
as the shelling of Sumter or the bombing of Pearl Harbor. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; tab-stops: 20.25pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Keep in mind, however,
that psychiatry was the totality of this man's being, the very substance of his
marrow and his cells, the single reality around which the vapors of existence
had congealed into the loose fabric of matter. Thus, these two (or three)
sentences, which seemed to suggest that he had transgressed the boundaries of
science and had stepped over into that very mysticism that he had given his
life to explaining away, these sentences slashed as deeply as any bayonet or
ghetto switchblade. And they were, to him, far more deadly. Science claims as
one of its prerogatives a certain precision, and these sentences, so inconsequential
to the untrained spirit, were a case in point: they found their mark with surgical
accuracy. Naturally his retaliation was immediate,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the instinctive response of the wounded
animal. Impatient, he submitted his carefully worded reply to another of the
professional journals and thereby broadened the theater of combat. In length it
approached that of his<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>"learned
colleague"<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(for he still thought of
the other man in this manner, not yet conscious of him as an opponent, a
rival). It, too,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>contained veiled
allusions. It, too, provoked a quick response. So the battle was engaged. It
flared for many months, ranging far and wide over the professional journals, articles
and rebuttals appearing suddenly now here, now there, like tight formations of
attack bombers ranging over a disputed territory. Each new article seemed ever
so slightly more personal, ever so slightly more vicious; each contained more
frequent and less veiled questionings of the professional competence and, at
last, even of the basic stability of the two opponents. The dispute became the
focal point of the psychiatric world. Troops enlisted on either side, and the
journals were filled with pieces long and short supporting one position or the
other. Demonstrating its debt to its culture, the dispute began to exhibit the
same malicious spirit that so characterizes the public life of the age.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Such intellectual Armageddons are not
rare, of course, but the public usually pursues its affairs unaware of these
wars in its midst, since such conflicts, with no clear action or outcome, no
maps with bright arrows showing territories lost or gained, no body counts and
few atrocities, fail to excite the popular imagination. Occasionally there are
exceptions to the verbose, invisible nature of such disputes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>By way of example I point out the case of Dr.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>P. de Santerre, the Canadian biologist who,
several years ago, resolved his quarrel over a proposed re-ordering of the
phylum Coelenterata by shooting the colleague who opposed him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Gradually, then, the conflict took on a
new dimension for our doctor. He began to see himself in an unaccustomed light.
It was no longer a simple theoretical dispute, no longer even a simple personal
difference. His conviction of his rectitude, always strong, grew stronger
yet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The original question was now a
cause. Others might enlist behind him, but the primary responsibility, the main
burden,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the sacred duty, remained his
and his alone.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">His sailing was the first casualty.
Although he continued to go up to the shore, in fact went up there more often,
he rarely left the second floor study, and the bright red sailboat languished
two seasons without use.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He paced the
floor long after midnight for days on end in deep concentration searching the
massed knowledge in his brain and on his shelves for some new fact, some new
precedent or clue, that he might fling across the country in fresh salvo.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">At first the question itself remained
uppermost in his mind, but gradually he found that with each new word, each new
sentence, each new thought,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the image of
the other man's face became more vivid and dominant until it, and it alone,
drove him on. The original <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>dogmatic <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>dispute took <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>second place,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>and <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it seemed to those few
objective observers who remained that history was indulging her fancy for
repetition, that the battle was a muted re-enactment of the furious arguments
of early church fathers or of the clash of Reformation titans.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Some time later the popular press at last
took notice of the affair: a crisp half-column in Time. To both men this seemed
a clear signal for an escalation of sorts, and, despite the warnings of their
respective supporters, they took the opportunity to move the contest outside the
professional arena. The magazines of popular psychology were first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These were followed by interviews on radio
programs, by lectures at campuses across the country, and finally by several
appearances on the television talk shows. The difficulty,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>of course, was<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>that while<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>this<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>new audience was certainly
intelligent,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it was not expert, not
professional. The doctrinal point was<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>perhaps too obscure, too academic, a subtlety of high psychology
presented for judgment to a lay court. Still, the<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>personal antagonism between the two men was
sufficient to hold public interest, and they took care to season their acrimony
with at least enough background material to render the vague outline of the
dispute intelligible. Beyond that, the debate became primarily a public
exercise in character assassination.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">Reputations were now at stake, reputations
were now the central issue. This much the public could appreciate. Our doctor
was now the representative, the personification, the embodiment, the
incarnation of the cause that had once been the idea that had at first been the
crucial point of the debate. His defeat in the public arena, even if it were a
defeat for the wrong reasons, was the defeat of the cause; his triumph was its
triumph. The critical importance of the idea itself, that unorthodox
interpretation of an arcane point at best only poorly understood by the general
public to which it was now being presented, had perhaps diminished but only, our
doctor would assert privately, in a tactical<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>sense.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once he had been
vindicated, the theory, the cause, would vindicate itself, would have the
necessary room to grow, would take root and flourish in the general
consciousness. It was only the stubborn resistance of this other, this enemy, that
forced him to stand, as it were, in the place of his idea, to propagate and
defend it in this manner.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">In the end he threw himself headlong into
the fray. He closed his office, abandoned his practice (temporarily, he said),
and retired fulltime to the house by the shore, appearing only on those
occasions when he had a chance publicly to engage his opponent. His articles, produced
now in furious bouts of concentration more like temper than thought, appeared
more and more frequently, gradually becoming more strident, more hysterical in
tone and phrasing. To say that he began to waste away from the effort of the
contest would perhaps be overly romantic, but clearly he began to show the
signs of a terrible strain. His face, once calm, sustained, objective, began to
undergo a transformation, to become lined, weathered as though by the sea,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>deepened as though somehow it had
appropriated to itself in its brief moments of anguish and (lately) doubt all
the long years of anguish and doubt to which its owner, its wearer, had so
patiently listened. Once strong, benign, impenetrable, it seemed now suffused
with a strange light,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>a strange
intensity, the sort of bright frenzy one expects to find only in portraits of
the artists of an age long dead, an uncanny light,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>almost eerie,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>almost possessed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">The public requires action if its interest
is to be sustained: so runs the law of this age, perhaps of any age. It
entertained this intellectual struggle for a time because the vagaries, the
eccentricities, the contests of the purely academic world were not as familiar
to it as, say, those of the political world, and the display of thought and
spite afforded it by these two men had engaged its curiosity. But without
continued action the outcome of which directly concerns its own fate (and who
would presume to claim that such was the case here?), the public shifts its
attention as quickly as the sea shifts sand on the beach.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Besides, the Dow was shaky and the World
Series near at hand.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our doctor's West
Coast opponent realized this and was content when the expected shift of
interest at last occurred. His name, up to now relatively obscure, had enjoyed
a brief but intensive circulation. His practice had doubled, he had purchased a
handsome office suite in a prestigious part of the city, he had moved to a
larger, more comfortable apartment. When the editors first of the popular magazines
and then of the scholarly journals began to return his articles, noting that
the coverage had reached a saturation level, he took a two month sabbatical in
Munich,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>planning to launch on his return
a lecture tour on an entirely unrelated subject.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">For our doctor, however, these rejections
were a terrible blow. That the general public might lose interest he could
understand; that the scientific community should also turn its back was
unthinkable. In time they would come to their senses. Meanwhile, he was
determined to press on, regardless of their collective lapse. He sold the
apartment in the city, he sold the bright red sailboat. He rose early, read, thought,
and wrote until one or two each morning. He broke his concentration only for
necessary meals, for necessary sleep, for an occasional solitary walk. He used
a tape recorder now as well as a pen and paper, so that no thought, no
idea,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>might escape.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">He lived this way for three and a half
years, wholly obscure, wholly intense. One day at the end of that time a woman
and her daughter, out early to collect driftwood thrown up by the tide, found
him on the silent beach, pale and thin beneath an immense orange sky. The
inquest ruled death by natural causes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt;">The party that later examined his effects
found thousands of pages of manuscript and several hundred tapes, all of them
dealing with his theory, many of them in the form of rambling letters, or, in
the case of the tapes, imaginary conversations, addressed to the man who had
been his adversary. Those who understand such things say that of this enormous
testament only a minute fraction is in an intelligible form. The rest, a
monument to incoherence that will provide the psychiatric industry with abundant
raw material for some time to come, will require many, many years to decipher and organize.<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Regardless of the path he takes in life,
every man of good faith sooner or later arrives at a point at which it is
necessary for him to attempt to set down explicitly his fundamental beliefs. It
is probable that this has always been so, probable that this has always been
one of life's central tasks. Life is, to brutalize Churchill's graceful
epigram, a mystery begun by an enigma and ended by a riddle; suspended between
birth and death, each of us treads a course grounded firmly on assumption.
Reduce man as fully as it is possible to reduce him and you arrive at his assumptions,
that is, at his faith. A man is no more and no less than the total substance of
his belief. Our own age, spawned, according to the historian's belief, in the
intoxication and delusion of the Enlightenment, is, we are told, a skeptical
one, that is, one in which "faith" as an essential element of life is
devalued. The pure type of the age, then, would be some inconceivable
super-skeptic, a man whose dictum would be "I believe nothing."
Granted, we find many who approach the type, but on examination it will
generally be found that they do so more from a sort of stunted philosophical
indulgence than from any genuine and thoroughgoing skepticism. Even the true
skeptic realizes the impossibility of his position, realizes that the total
negation that total skepticism would imply is inherently impossible. To say
that I believe nothing requires that I posit something, that is, my belief in
nothing requires that I announce (the skeptic would balk at "affirm")
my faith in the impossibility of faith. To be genuine such a total skepticism
would require that the skeptic limit the content of his consciousness to the
endless repetition of the single word "nothing... nothing... nothing"
after the fashion of the mystic repeating the sacred <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">OM</i>. Ultimately, total skepticism is expressible only as suicide, at
which point the skeptic passes from our consideration either into the nothing
that he must not-believe to not-be or into the province of some other, some
unknown, reality.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">It is less than honest then to call ours an
age of skepticism. Far better to admit that it is with ignorance and delusion
that we are truly dealing, to recognize that the essential characteristic of
the age is a certain self-deceit and not an actual skepticism. The problem is
not that men do not believe in anything; the problem is that men do not know,
are not conscious of, precisely what it is they do believe. This is not a
surprising circumstance, since so many of the beliefs of the age are so hollow
that their adherents would be mortally embarrassed to recognize them in
themselves. A psychologist, interested in the mechanism of projection (the
principle of the mote and the beam) would find fertile ground here. What we
mislabel "skepticism" is the feeling that derives from the
realization that we have little common faith. For this there is no remedy but
for each man first to define his own individual faith and thereby lay the
groundwork for the elaboration of a common faith. My own contributions,
fractured, I admit, nearly to the point of incomprehension, are scattered <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>throughout these pages.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">I have had the rubric written in bold scarlet
across my political consciousness that we are “a nation of immigrants,” a
thought I sometimes find deployed in service of substantial mischief. Perhaps
it would better help to negotiate some of the difficulties latent in that
thought to refine it thus: we are a nation of sovereign citizens <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">whose forebears were once immigrants.</i></span></div>

that door be before it opens unto irrationality?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">We make this initial assertion: the
determinate reality of our <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">political</i>
existence is our existence as members of a “nation state,” not our existence as
members of “the family of man.” The former is the hinge point of our civil
obligations, the latter of our religious ones, a distinction central to the
Western tradition.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">The attempt at rational thought begins with
definition: “The nation state, an advanced form of social organization, is a
collection of inhabitants --- both citizen and non-citizen --- within a
definable geographic boundary and assembled under some unitary instrument of governance
the intent of which is the production of a bonded consciousness --- sovereign,
shared, and manifest --- constellated around and constrained by a constituent document.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Viewed along the long arc of time back even to
dimmest pre-history, all humanity can properly be labeled as migrant. Pick the
creation myth that best fits your vision: our origins lie somewhere in Africa
or in Mesopotamia at the confluence of the Tigris and the Euphrates or in a
geographically undefined Garden of Eden or at the spot where, at the end of a
restless evolution, what was once a roiling mass of undifferentiated protoplasm
first made landfall. Regardless, we understand innately that humanity’s beginning
is essentially a localized event and that its subsequent expansion to fill the
globe constitutes a relentless cycle of emigration and settlement. This peripatetic
dynamic we take as foundational to our understanding of “the state of nature.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Let imagination scan swiftly along the dim
millennia from first facts to the present, from couple to family to clan to
tribe to kingdom to empire to nation state (ultimately perhaps) to some form of
global singularity. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">That the nation state is an improvement over
the state of nature can hardly be questioned. But other questions can be asked.
Is the nation state a perfection of all prior improvements over the state of
nature? If so, is it the ultimate perfection of the state of nature or is a unitary
global state the next natural evolution of humanity? Can a perfected unitary
global state exist without the prior existence and elaboration of individual
and perfected nation states? Can the attainment of a unitary global state be
somehow accelerated? Is such an acceleration desirable? If so, what are the
efficient and appropriate means of that acceleration?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Though we assert a commitment to some notion
of global unity, however vague and ill-defined a notion that may be, our
civilization remains yet at the nation state phase of political evolution. Running
far ahead of ourselves, straining the elasticity of our thought, we have frightened
ourselves to a spiritual panic by the consequences of our prior errors, the
horrors of our wars and hatreds. As a result, we misperceive our fundamental
obligations and attempt without adequate preparation the leap from national to
global identity.</span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;"> </span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Charity
begins at home.</span></i><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;"> The old bromide admits as well of several
rephrasings. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Identity begins at home</i>
also fits the psychological form as does <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Sovereignty
begins at home.</i> Before we undertake to barter American identity or American
sovereignty for an ill-defined notion of global unity better suited to
spiritual than to civil aspirations, we ought first to engage in the profound
conversation necessary to model a genuinely common consciousness, uniquely
American and unreservedly assented to, and, having once done so, to begin an arduous
examination of conscience that measures our reality against that model. As a
slogan “America First” is but a slight distance from “Physician, heal thyself.”
And that healing, productive of a <i>national</i> identity, is prerequisite to any progress
toward a hoped for global one.</span></div>

have been indoctrinated (as indeed I imagine have we all) to hold that
diversity is a virtue, a bedrock value of American consciousness and a
wellspring of national strength. I have my doubts. That America comprises a
myriad of races, of nationalities, of religions, of souls across vast ranges of
development and education is certain and confirmed by the simplest observation.
But that this diversity is, in and of itself, virtuous, valuable, or
strengthening is much more open to question. Several weeks of steady attention
to the evening news is all that is needed to prompt a contemplative pause, and
a single full lifetime's disjunct recollections --- sixty, seventy, eighty
years’ worth --- is, for some souls, sufficient to bring thought itself to a
dead halt: a diversity of ignorance yields no worthy philosophy, a diversity of
evils is no paradise.</span></div>

product of his unique vision, and if I wanted whatever story there might be, actual
or potential, certain or speculative, I had to make the effort to discover or
to provide it. The movies gave us both at once and in the process usurped our
individual imaginations and replaced them with a corporate imagination, fixed
and unyielding. The story was the story as they read it for me, not as I read
it, the pictures were the pictures they saw, not the pictures I saw or might
have seen. I sometimes wonder if there might not be a sort of crime against
humanity here.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>~ </span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 9.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A. Burnbridge, in conversation.</span></i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">I
have, over the course of many years, spent considerable hours reflecting on the
multitude of things conveyed to me by my revered mentor, an exercise of some
difficulty given his writing style and teaching methodology. As a writer,
Burnbridge is most often characterized --- many would say justifiably so --- as
irrational, illogical, turgid, inchoate, fragmentary, fundamentally formless. In
his retrospective overview of Burnbridge’s magnum opus, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">(re)Evolutionary Biotics</i>, Philip Anthony Macklinmore, writing in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Daedalus</i>, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">the Journal of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, </i>says: “On
the whole, the four volumes of this admittedly massive undertaking must be
considered as a sort of tautological conundrum, a mash-up of thoughts each
wrenched from its context in its home world of theology, philosophy,
psychology, mathematics, literature, and science and arrayed across the four
volumes as though on some infinitely multi-dimensional chessboard, free from
the tyrannies of both time and space, a mental universe essentially and
entirely self-referential resonant nonetheless beyond the boundaries of its
tight closure, a bass line to a fugal music of the spheres. Largely unreadable
in any ordinary sense of the word, it can only be experienced and allowed to
gestate.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">His
pedagogic style was no less idiosyncratic. He took on few students, perhaps no
more than three dozen over the entire course of his career, and chose these by
criteria incomprehensible to any but himself. One did not apply to be
Burnbridge’s pupil, one was invited out of the blue. Nor did there appear to be
any prerequisite for his tutelage. One was simply beckoned out of his own world
and plunged, consciousness first, into Burnbridge’s. In his teaching as in his writing,
he labored (if indeed for him it was a labor) not so much to impart knowledge
as to produce an effect. He held no formal classes, conversed but did not
lecture, suggested readings but did not guide them, and stressed above all else
silently patient and reflective observation of the reality in which one found
oneself submerged. “I am not a teacher,” he once said. “I am simply a
vocabulary, a means whereby one day to speak.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">I
note these few disjunct facts in hopes of giving some context, however vaporous,
to what follows. I have been rereading <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Particle
and Wave </i>for several years now, rereading it in the only way possible to
read Burnbridge, without hope of comprehension and driven simply by the recurrent
desire to be intimately in his presence, rather as one stands before a fine
painting or an ancient tree or an oceanside sunset. The quote at the head of
this musing is one of many that has stuck with me throughout that endeavor. As
with much of Burnbridge’s thought, it has seemed to me at one and the same time
unintelligible and fecund with import. In particular, it has been what at first
seems merely a minor detail of emphasis, that grace note of italization ---
“the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">idea</i> of God” --- that has
confounded my understanding and troubled my imagination.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">In
reading him, I never lose sight of the fact that Burnbridge was a Jesuit, a
profoundly religious person though never ostentatiously so, a thinker not an
evangelizer, and it is that primal fact about him that oscillates through the
whole of my reflection on this thought of his, a sine wave of vexing
perplexity. Would it not have been more theologically conventional, more
crisply metaphorical if a bit more mundane, to assert simply that “God is the
master algorithm?” And what to make of the faintly threatening admonition “one
would be well advised?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Silently patient
and reflective observation of the reality in which one finds oneself submerged.
</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">As
I do often these days, I have been napping sunk in the plush brown recliner in
the converted upstairs bedroom that serves as my study, drifting through the
gauzy dreams induced by the dappled sunlight on my shuttered eyelids, the
luminous rhythm of a crisply fall day’s brilliance conducted through the window
by the gentle swaying of the maple on the treelawn beyond, until the sound of
my wife’s vacuuming the hallway carpet nudges me back to the world. Returning
from such a midday sleep --- itself a minor violation of the normal order of
the day, a privilege of the very young and of the aging --- has always seemed
to me a sort of fleeting rebirth, an instantaneous transit part improbable
memory, part fragile fantasy across a dim and shifting boundary separating a
distant unthought elsewhere from an insistent here and now. Were it not for the
fragments of a personal past (or pasts) dragged along in the wake of the
transition like scattered bits of flotsam pulled behind a speedboat, there
would be no more to the change of state than the simple flipping of a switch,
sudden and certain.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Today
these images are of a distant youth, glimpses of my earliest education floating
leaf like through my awakening consciousness as though gently fallen from the
height of some great tree grown tall beyond the limits of my seeing, the
catechism of my childhood rife with wonder and with terror, the germinal ideas
of God planted in the furrows of my fertile reason and imagination, the notion
of a reality omnipresent, all knowing, all seeing, all powerful. The thoughts
that sprouted from these primal revelations --- all very early education is
accepted by the nascent mind as revelation --- were not as wholly comforting as
I am certain they were intended. Indeed, to my infant soul there was something
about them vaguely unsettling, disquieting, an insistent drone of something
faintly sinister, faintly threatening, just beneath the possibility of
perception. Omnipresent, as in inescapably everywhere; all knowing, as in the
repository of all possible knowledge; all seeing, as in ever and immediately
conscious of every constituent datum of individual existence, mine and all
others; all powerful, as in mediating all that makes human existence possible,
and thus by reason or caprice the font both of reward and of catastrophe.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">As I
grew, the conclusions my imagination spun successively from such considerations,
a complex web of consequentiality and obligation ever more extensive, ever
weightier, seemed to me too immovable an impediment to the burgeoning liberty I
so thirsted after, the unfettered freedom that was the promise of the world
into which I was born. Offering no opposition to the swelling currents of that
world --- increasingly rationalist, increasingly atheist --- I settled into a
placid agnosticism and called it maturity.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Agnosticism
is a species of skepticism, and the most certain fruit of skepticism is irony:
this is the intuition that brings my reflection back to Burnbridge. Staring at
the screen on which I type these words, I am suddenly, oppressively, conscious
of the computer that makes it possible, of its wonder and its ubiquity. The
highest achievement and chief instrument of our technological genius, it has
quietly assumed the central role as prime architect of the reality in which we
find ourselves. Increasingly inescapably everywhere, it is if not yet actually
then certainly potentially the repository of all human knowledge, needing only
the inexorable expansion of its capacity and the continuing transference of all
of humankind’s memories. Deployed in the service of our security, extended by
the smartphones in our hands even to the most trivial affairs of daily life,
its eyes seem everywhere. It catalogues our thoughts, our desires, our votes,
our preferences, the simplest facts of our birth and our aging and our dying,
and of this catalogue constructs for each of us a collation of data points it
then interprets as our selves. It controls the energies that make our lives
comfortably livable and the weaponry that makes our destruction conceivable.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .8pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“…the
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">idea</i> of God is the master algorithm.”
Omnipresent, all knowing, all seeing, all powerful. No, the irony is not lost
on me. It is as though, having dismissed the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">fact</i> of God, we have constructed, out of some deep unconscious
imperative essential to our nature, a working model of the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mind</i> of God and in doing so have confirmed Voltaire’s observation
that “if God did not exist it would be necessary to invent him.” I only wonder
if we have somehow managed to include among those attributes we have
unconsciously modeled the comprehensive<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span>beneficence<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span>of the divine love…and therein, I think, lies the
import of Burnbridge’s disquieting “<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">one
would be well advised</i>.” </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">It has been my misfortune to be born this time around into
a country obsessively focused on the future and driven by its passion for
unrelenting progress toward that future. I say misfortune because, given my
nature, I seem so often consigned to the unhappy role of curmudgeon, of wet
blanket. There is no help for it. Swept along with all the rest toward that
inescapable future, I cannot shake the equally inescapable certainty that no
matter the velocity of our progress the past is nonetheless close behind. And
gaining. Rapidly.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Persistent observation of the ways in which money moves
within our political system makes reasonable the conclusion that we have
permitted our politicians to transform their profession from a vocation to a
business, its aim less service than self-aggrandizement.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Is it any great wonder then that a
businessman should at some point be proposed as its chief executive?</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">It is possible to think of some of our leaders as
belonging to a subset of the religious, unofficial clerics disdainful of
mendicancy and therefore self-ordained into an order of friars mendacious.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">It is a grave error --- and a common American one --- to
consider wealth as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">ipso facto</i> evidence
of virtue.</span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 9.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">In response to a few of the vexing questions no one’s ever
asked me:</span></i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">If music is a moral law, as Plato is reputed to have
written, then the most that can be said of our current popular music is that
even at its very best it is still a misdemeanor.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">History? You need to be careful, take it a bit at a time,
in sips, not in gulps. History is full of poisonous memories.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">I believe that as moral beings we must cast an understanding
eye on any of the various forms of sexual and gender dyslexia we see around us.
I do not believe that we must fashion our society upon them.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">There is value in procrastination. It is the father of
restraint.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">She is the very model of a woman scorned. And living with
her as leader would confirm the rest of the proverb.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">America is the continuous project of free souls intent on
forming a perfected conscience. It is a project far from completion, and much
that is commonly considered progress toward that completion is in actuality no
more than the dust and disorder attendant on any remodeling. Our politics are
the noisome squabble of those who, driven more by ego than by any principle of
design, wrongly believe themselves the architects.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">His was a wounded soul, blind to the truth right in front
of him, deaf to the truth ringing in his ears.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">While it may be true, as I have often heard it said, that
as Americans we have a government of laws and not a government of men, it is
equally true that those laws are written by men and administered by them. And
therein lies the rub. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Some leaders don’t leave a legacy, they leave a residue.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">“No,” she said. “It is not right. It is not liberty. It is
not freedom. It is not justice. And it will not be until we are all treated
equally, until we all enjoy real equality.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">“Equality?” he said. “All treated equally?” He turned to
look out the window. A belligerent bluejay landed on the edge of the birdbath,
scattering the three sparrows and the finch frolicking in the shallows. “Only
death treats all equally. Men just do the best they can.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Distressing though it is, I realize that we are deep
in the madness of another election cycle (they are all a minor form of
psychosis, you understand). I understand as well that that means there will be
an endless fury of comments, provocations, musings and memes across all mediums
--- television, radio, print, internet, telepathy, all of them --- and that,
given the frailties of my own intellect I will be moved --- compelled, perhaps
--- on occasion to respond to same. Let me then establish for myself this first
principle of the discussion, absent which I will endeavor with all my strength
to restrain my tongue: there is no such thing as an Italian American, there is
no such thing as an Asian American, there is no such thing as an African American,
there is no such thing as a Polish American, there is no such thing as a German
American (continue as you will); there is only an American of Italian descent,
an American of Asian descent, an American of African descent, an American of
Polish descent, an American of German descent (continue as must we all).</span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 9.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">(At the Museum,
standing before the El Greco, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Christ on
the Cross with a View of Toledo</i>)</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .7pt; margin-top: 4.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Eloi, eloi, lama
sabachthani...</span></i><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">All history is the echo exploded from
Golgotha, Christ’s final cry of agony and despair cascading as though
atomically through all the intersecting revolutions of the temporal ---
irrational, salvific, and deafening. We…all mankind…are swept up in its wake,
winnowed in its vortex.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">There is a difference between the words “tolerance” and
“acceptance”, and the effort to make them synonymous, whether the imprecision
be the result of a deliberate ignorance in service of a desired end or simply
of sluggishness of thought, lies at the root of much discord. That I
acknowledge that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">you</i> steadfastly hold
as absolutely true the position you take in regard to the structure of the
universe and of the societies within it and that I assent to occupy that same
universe and those same societies peaceably alongside of you constitutes
tolerance; that I hold as true that selfsame thought and position constitutes
acceptance. Both civic virtue and religious charity compel absolutely toward
tolerance, neither compels absolutely toward acceptance. And we would be well
advised to realize that of the two it is tolerance that demands reciprocity.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">He
who lives his life to its close and has not after some fashion found God (or
been found by Him) has squandered his existence.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The
fruit of one’s own labor is increase, the fruit of the labor of others is
profit.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The function of government is to make manifest the
constellated virtue of the governed, though more often than to be wished it
simply makes manifest the lack thereof.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 1.1pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: auto; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Long
imagined as the world’s melting pot, America becomes daily ever more likely its
winnowing house, its threshing floor.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">A
profound faith informing a stubborn and wide ranging intelligence tempered by
humility and doubt is the single most reliable protector of the separation
between church and state, a fact we need keep in mind in considering candidates
for our highest court. “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and
unto God the things that are God’s.” The reason capable of making that critical
discrimination is a relatively rare instrument, its master a rarer <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">maestro</i> yet. In practicing his art he is
most often called upon to act as though he were chaplain to a congregation of
atheists, serving at one moment as purgatory's concierge and at another as
hell's bellhop.</span></div>

Dei</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">.
This antique aphorism, subject over the centuries to a fluid range of political
interpretation, is often in our day deployed in defense of the purest ideals of
democracy. Notwithstanding the almost casual common acceptance of its
centrality to the governance of a free people, unbiased observation suggests
that the axiom be more closely examined. Even an American, the soul most ardent
in the application of the principle, is forced upon reflection to conclude that
the persistent clamor of the people has not yielded the comity one would assume
to be an expression of the voice of God. Perhaps then it is the case that the
voice of the people is too often raised less as the echo of God’s voice and
more as a response to it…and the state of the polity is a measure of the
disparity between the two.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 9.0pt;">A. Burnbridge (from
a lecture “Syllogisms and Stumblingblocks” at the University of the Americas,

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">I want to live in a world where I never again have to hear
anyone say, “Politics is a dirty business.” Clearly, this is not that world,
nor, I suspect, will it ever be. Here, march though they may beneath the banner
of “leadership,” politicians aspire only to power, the ability not to conduce
to unity but rather to compel it by force. The sole valid purpose of political
power --- and thus the only justification of the social hierarchy that it
establishes (or dismantles) --- is the elaboration and maintenance of the
common good. But the fulfilment of that purpose demands as prerequisite the
effort to define the notion of “common good.” This effort constitutes civic
education, and in this world “civics,” a nobler instruction, has been replaced
by the more Machiavellian “political science.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The teaching of civics creates citizens, the teaching of political
science creates politicians. A society of the free can exist without
politicians; without citizens it cannot.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">Citizenship is localized; it presupposes both place and sovereignty
and is specific to them. One is a citizen of a sovereign nation. That one can
in any genuine sense be a “citizen of the world” is a thought so vapid as to
decay rapidly into incoherent delusion, comforting, vacant, and dangerous.
Certainly it can be asserted that the world is indeed, in an expanded sense at
least, a “place,” but that it is, ever has been, or indeed ought to be understood
to constitute a single sovereignty (speculation on the nature of the divine aside)
numbs the reason and dissolves the very notion of citizenship. The world in
which we find ourselves comprises an assemblage of nations --- individual and
unique entities sovereign and self-willed --- destined, perhaps, to be
ultimately an organic unity but failing yet the attainment even of genuine
community. Globalization, one world community, the brotherhood of man, the
unity of human consciousness, the beneficent interconnectedness of all human
action, the butterfly effect…pipe dreams all and all the more dangerous as
presently imagined. Perhaps the state of being hinted at by such concepts is
indeed devoutly to be desired. That the consciousness of man --- inherently
flawed, inherently unstable, inherently divided --- is capable of creating for
itself that state of being is a grotesque delusion.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.4pt;">It is likely that the nation is the maximum
expanded form of social organization of which man is capable, just as it is
certain that the family is the root form from which all other forms derive. The
unity of the family, the cohesion of its bonding, is an ontological fact as
self-evident as the binding forces of physical reality. The binding forces of
all further social elaborations are not so organic. They derive not from any
root structure innate of humankind but represent, in the individual and thus in
the aggregate, acts of will, intentional shapings of the direction of
consciousness, whether thoughtful or casual. The society they constellate is a
choice, not a fate, and rests not on resignation but on assent. And I doubt
deeply the ability of the individual to extend that assent beyond national
coherence.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">In the slow evening inside with cigarette smoke and coffee
and all the tiny maneuverings of a soul weary of the work world outside which
is yesterday and the day before and the day before and will be Monday after the
weekend and Tuesday after Monday, I force myself to the typewriter like a
journeyman setting to an arduous labor, attempting to define what has been
defined so many times before and so much better. I rummage through the debris
of my life, knowing that it is not particularly distinctive debris, no more
special than the debris of a thousand other lives, and perhaps composed as much
of a thousand other lives as of my own, rummage through the debris looking
for...what? A thread, a thought, continuity, inspiration, a gleam of light, a
golden ray of “yes that's it of course” out of which to compound once more magical
rainbow words mounting to inestimable stars. But not abstract words, not the
words of the arid places, the dry rocks and stony deserts, not the words baked
beneath the analytic sun until, dried as raisins, they cease to live, no,
rather words pumping blood into the carnivorous maw of thought escaping itself
and surging toward reality.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">The actions of a soul breaking out of self-imposed bonds.
Self-imposed? There was a commitment proceeding, a trial of some sort, a
verdict, a sentence, a condemnation. An unfair judge, an unjust judge...</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">Or merely ramblings looking for a focal point. And to feed
the ramblings without some sort of discipline does little good. The thing is to
write, they say, write, use every word, every sentence structure at full speed
until becoming second nature it ceases to be a matter of man before machine but
becomes man and machine one and neither one the reality of the thing, but there
being something else, something driving both the man and the machine and it
being with that something that the man, the soul of the man, has his real
business, that the soul of the man attempts, however haltingly, however
audaciously, to contact to reach to touch to smell to experience to live with
to love to die for to rhapsodize upon to imitate to confound.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-right: .8pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.65pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: .4pt;">Classicism and romanticism…who knows? It is no more than a
matter of speed. They are the same thing. Romanticism is classicism speeded up,
only speeded up so audaciously, so demonically, that the end ceases to connect
with the beginning and races instead full bore toward the conclusion always
eternally and forever contained in the starting point. It is circular, god is
circular, we run in circles, wedding bands, circles of acquaintance, circular
time, circular planet, galaxies curving in upon themselves, the alpha and the
omega, circles, circles, circles, and the soul dizzy with the knowledge of it,
dizzy with it and ready, willing, to pass out, to fall into the one great
circle but not yet, not yet able, there being something else, this body, the
fact of body, and the soul, imprisoned and yet unwilling to relinquish its
prison, knowing somehow that the prison is also the source of liberation...</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The room was only half filled, and the stream of people
coming up the stairs showed no sign of abating. Smiling and happy, they
embraced the old couple at the head of the receiving line and wished them well.
"Another fifty, Uncle Tom. Congratulations. Congratulations. Happy
anniversary. Oh, Aunt Bertha, you look wonderful, just wonderful." At the
long table on the dais at the front of the room the grandson looked around
curiously. He estimated that there would be about two hundred guests when the
room was full. He tried to pick out familiar faces from the throng, comparing
those he thought he recognized with the pictures of much younger faces that he
carried in his memory. The waitresses were busy setting up service on the
buffet table, the great ice sculpture in the center --- a fish or a dolphin ---
sparkling in the festive light and melting slowly. Three little girls, cousins
from the Rinaldi side of the family he guessed, skipped chattering among the
tables on the floor ignoring their mother’s threats. "Joanne! Nancy! If you can't
behave yourselves, I'll call your father! Carolyn, that goes for you too."
The men clustered around the bar, joking, laughing, touching. His wife took him
by the hand beneath the table to get his attention and spoke close to his ear.
"My God, but there are a lot of you. Do you know all these people?"</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">He smiled and leaned toward her, though he kept his face
turned toward the bustle on the floor. "Most of them are cousins," he
said, "second and third cousins at that. I've never even met half of them.
Those I grew up with have changed a lot over the years." Earlier, walking
around among the first arrivals or standing at the bar with his father and his
uncle, he had found it necessary to ask, "Is that Richard or Albert? And
who's that? Ted? Bill? God, the last time I saw Bill he was thirteen and
skinny."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandfather was Sicilian, from a town not far from
Palermo, a small man in his late seventies, quick to smile, still autocratic
and independent, as self-contained as the island of his birth. His father, a
shoemaker after his father before him, had died in an outbreak of typhus,<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span>an
incidental casualty<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span>of the war, in the seventy-second year of his life and
the fifty-fifth of his marriage in a house five down from the house in which he
had been born. The one brother, Ernesto, the eldest, had gone to the mainland
in 1920 just after <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">that same</span> war, and settled in Turin<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">.</span> He made a<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>small fortune and lost a somewhat larger one.
In the fifties he retired to a house in his native town, a house two streets
over from the street on which he had been born and his father had died, there<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to make his peace with God and quarrel
amicably under the Sicilian<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>sun with any
and all passers-by. Three of the sisters had fallen happily into the ordinary
rhythm that is the destiny of simple peoples: they had married, spawned with
religious profligacy, had grown old and fat and indelibly maternal after the
ancient manner of women of their town, and at last divided their declining
years among their grandchildren, their memories, and prayer. The fourth,
Carmella, had accompanied her widowed uncle Giuseppe, his three sons, and his
daughter-in-law to America
in the early twenties. A year later the grandfather, Gaetano (only the
grandmother called him that now) brought his new Neapolitan bride across the great
ocean to join his sister and his uncle and his cousins.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.9pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">He had done well. When the depression hit, his small
family prospered. (A son, the first child of the new soil, had been born three
years earlier.) The grandfather was a tailor. He had opened a small dry cleaning
shop, and in those hard times there were many suits and dresses to be cleaned
and pressed and patched and altered. It was in those years that he bought his

early years he worked hard nursing his hopes for the future from the back of a
secondhand truck. Later he would oversee a flourishing wholesale business. In
time, his other two sons married --- Italian girls from the neighborhood in
which they all lived in those early days. Nino entered business with his
father, Fabrizio and Carlo worked their way into the construction trades. Carmella,
too, married, although very late for women of that community; a shy girl, she
found that her attachments to her native soil were stronger than she had
believed. She alone of all the family never learned to speak English
comfortably, and it was no great surprise when, in the early sixties after
Armand had died, she left the small apartment in the Italian community where
they had lived since their marriage and returned to the harsh Sicilian
landscape and the vehement Sicilian light for which she had yearned almost
since she had left them.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">In the early thirties the grandmother's sister and her
husband and their three children had come over. The grandfather's business was
strong (many of the customers who first came to him in the depression were
still coming to him three years ago when the family finally persuaded him to
close the store), and he was able to help them settle into the odd pace of the
new land. His own family had grown again; the daughter was born in '31 and
though from the first she had seemed a frail child they had not worried. She
died of pneumonia at ten, and the family grieved for a year. When the father
told the story he said that it was the only time in his life that he had seen
the grandfather cry. The grandmother had stopped her yearly visits to the
cemetery only last year, when the grandfather's health had deteriorated so
badly that he could no longer drive her. Even now she kept the spare bedroom
furnished in French provincial and decorated with the most delicately feminine
lace curtains.</span></div>

do. Of course, your grandfather thought it was silly but he gave in rather than
argue. Well, we were all in church and they were supposed to walk together up

around the tables on the floor. The waitresses brought the steaming pans of
pasta and chicken and roast beef from the kitchen and set them on the warmers
on the buffet table. The grandmother and the grandfather stood by one of the
tables in front of the long table on the dais and talked in Italian to another
old woman. The grandson leaned over to his wife and nodded toward the three of
them. "That's my Aunt Rosa," he said. "Well, my grandaunt,
really. She was my godfather's mother. He died suddenly, very young, heart
attack." The picture came to mind and he shuddered in chill dismissal.
"That was something. My first experience with death. I couldn't have been
more than, oh, twelve or thirteen at the time. You think this family is
something when they celebrate, you should see them when they grieve. My uncles
--- well, I don't know, grand cousins, I guess, if there is such a thing; in
this family if they're older than you are you call them uncles --- anyway, my
uncles had to hold her because she kept trying to throw herself into the grave
on top of the coffin. I remember I kept thinking, if he's in heaven now why is
everybody crying? She always wore black for after that."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The father had returned from the war with an English
bride, the first marriage in the family to step outside the circle of the
ancient blood. (In the middle 'nineties, before the first war, one of the grandfather's uncles had
fathered a daughter by a young girl from the Swiss side of the Alps but he had
not married her and, judged a rogue, had fallen from the family's graces and
its memory,) For the first eight years they had lived with the grandfather
while the father, a cabinetmaker, worked to establish himself and save for the
down payment on a home of his own. The grandmother had borne a second son in '40,
a year before the daughter's death, and, in the early years at least, he had
been more like a brother than an uncle to the grandson born six years later.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The mother was from Folkestone, on the coast near Dover.
She had met the father in London. She worked there in a munitions plant, he was
in on leave. They courted under all the inconvenient circumstances imposed by
war and married in a small church in Folkestone attended by a half-dozen pale
English girls and upward of fifty drunken sailors. When the father told the
story (on New Year's Eve, usually, several highballs past midnight and Auld
Lang Syne) he liked to demonstrate how Les, the bosun's mate and his best man,
had staggered down the aisle while the beer bottles that he had tucked beneath
his jumper worked loose and crashed to the floor in front of the dismayed
priest. The mother liked to recall the white satin bridal gown, all
meticulously handsewn, and the silk stockings that the grandmother had sent over.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandfather called her 'polacco,' as though, by some
special act of divine providence that was clear to him however obscured it
might be to anyone else, the human race had been neatly and definitively
divided between the Italians and the others, who, simply because they were not
Italian, were collectively and indistinguishably, Polish. At first the mother,
in a strange and boisterous land far removed from gentle English manners and
among a volatile people who, at least half the time, spoke in a foreign tongue
(because they're talking about me, she thought, and they don't want me to know
what they're saying) had taken it as a slight and had allowed it to confirm the
anxiety that informed her every action, her every breath. "I know it, I
just know it," she said often to her husband, "your family doesn't
like me, they don't like me at all." Sometimes, in the comparative privacy
of their room at night, she would cry, and the father would throw his hands up
in frustration and bewilderment and grope for a way to calm her. Perhaps it was
the birth of her son that gave her her first glimpse beneath the grandfather's
gruff exterior. She still recalled --- and had often related to the grandson ---
how, when he was still a baby, the grandfather would stand over the bassinet
watching him sleep, and, when he thought no one was looking, would jiggle it
with his foot until the grandson woke, crying, so that he would have an excuse
to pick him up and rock him roughly. "Unless he discovered that you were
messy or wet," she said, "then it was strictly a woman's business.
Your father was all right if you were only wet, but if you were messy he was
the same as your grandfather: it was a woman's job, period."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">In time she came to hear in his brusque 'polacco' an
affectionate undertone. In time, too, she was no longer such a rare creature,
no longer the only 'polacco' in the family. (In fact, two years ago, when her
daughter --- his sister --- married, she chose a Wozniak, a genuine Pole, and
the extension or the dilution of the ancient blood that was perhaps the true
providential purpose behind their emigration seemed somehow fulfilled,)</span></div>

first, then Vittorio, the grandmother's sister's husband, then, as the decade
was ending, Armand, Carmella's husband. In the fifties, too, they moved out of
the old neighborhood and into the suburbs, a fine, big house newly-built on a
bright street planted with seedling maples. (Now they were trees large enough
to provide a modest shade; in another ten years they would arch high over the
street to form a translucent tunnel.) There were many Italian families in the
new neighborhood, but mostly they were second generation, and they greeted one
another on the street or across their fences in English. The father and the
uncle spoke both Italian and English, but the grandson learned to understand
only snatches of Italian ("Just enough to know when they were talking
about me or about something they didn't want me to know about." ) Years
later, in college, he would take it to fulfill his language requirement. He
would be able to manage only a C plus.</span></div>

family into a home of its own in a working class neighborhood a few miles from
the neighborhood into which the grandfather and the grandmother had settled.
Most of the children with whom the grandson went to school had names that ended
in a vowel, but at play after school they would all don the imitation coonskin
caps that they had begged from their parents and construct endless variants of
the life of Davy Crockett or they would gather on the empty lot at the end of
the street for a game of baseball.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The early sixties were perhaps the best years for the
family, the years when its rhythm was easiest and most natural. They gathered
to celebrate the birthdays (there were at least two a month throughout the
year) and for all the important holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's,
Easter. After dinner the men would gather in the kitchen to play penny
pinochle, and the women would sit over drinks in the living room gossiping
about the affairs of their neighborhoods or reciting the litanies of their
children's difficulties and accomplishments or talking about the new range or
the new dinette or the new living room furniture that they had talked their
husbands into buying. The children --- nineteen of them now when all the
cousins were present --- played in the basement or in the backyard. In '65,
when Joe, Rosa's eldest<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span>and the grandson's godfather, died, the celebrations
stopped for almost a year. Energetic and efflorescent, Joe had been the
sparkplug of the parties, teasing, arguing, joking, leading the laughter.
(Then, too, his widow, Agnes --- she was not Italian --- took his death very
hard, and there was an ugly business for a time while the family argued whether
she was still stable enough to care for Rosa's granddaughters.) In '68 the
grandfather suffered the first of his heart attacks.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">“Coffee?"</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Please," the grandson said. The waitress
removed his cup from the table, filled it, and replaced it in front of him. The
tables had been cleared, and the level of chatter increased throughout the
room. In the corner, the band, which had been silent throughout the meal (the
grandfather had sent the grandson over with the curt instruction, "Tell ‘em
be quiet with those junks until we finish eating") began with a pretty
melody in a slow tempo. The grandson sipped his coffee and shifted his gaze to
his right and left. There were fifteen at the table: the grandfather, his two
sons, the six grandchildren, the grandmother, the mother, and the four wives.
Almost sixteen, the grandson thought, smiling at his wife, almost four
generations. He looked at each of the men at the table, at their dark features,
their insolent eyelids, their strong noses. His wife was blond and fair, with a
small, pert nose, and, although his own mother's features had showed up most
distinctly in his sisters, he wondered what this latest of the family's genetic
experiments would reveal, wondered how far his son's face (he was confident
that it was a son) had moved from the rough style of the faces around him.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The wife took his hand beneath the table and leaned
close to his ear. "Could we step outside for a minute?"</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"It's nothing," she said. "I just need a
little air."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Sure, fine," he said. He leaned to his right
toward his father, who was talking in Italian with the grandmother. "We'll
be back in a few minutes," he said. "We're going outside for a little
air."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Is everything all right?" the father said.
"Susan's all right, isn't she?"</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"She's all right. It's just getting a little close
in here. She could use some fresh air."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The mother pulled her chair back up to the table between
the father and the grandmother and asked, "What's the matter?"</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Nothing," the son said. "Susan just

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Maybe you should go back to the house," the
father said, "maybe she should lie down and rest for a while."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandmother leaned toward them and spoke to the
father in Italian. He answered her in Italian and English. "Niente,"
he said, "Susan's stomach is just, ah, a little upset, and she wants some
fresh air."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandmother smiled in their direction.
"Shu," she said, "at’s right. You go outside for a while. At’s
nice."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">Outside the air was refreshingly cool. There was a white
wrought iron bench flanked by flowerboxes at the front of the building, and
they sat down and watched the traffic rushing by on the street in front of
them. "That's better," she said. "You know, I really like your
family."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"They're good people," he said, "a little
hard to live with sometimes, but good people. It's really funny the way they
are. Everything is family, you know? I mean it's all fathers and sons and aunts
and uncles and cousins. That's what you are and sometimes I don't think they
ever see anything else. They see that, but they don't see what changes. You're
a son once and you're a son forever. To them it's all that really matters so in
a way it's all that you ever really are. Did you notice that my father still
calls me Ronny? I'm almost thirty. I even told him about it once, but he can't
seem to break the habit."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"No, I know that," he said. "He doesn't

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"He's getting old now," he said. "Some of
the pepper is still there, but a lot of it is gone. He doesn't say anything,
but I think he feels the time now. You know, it's funny. I was sitting in there
thinking that when he came over his family was Italian, then it was
Italian-American, now it's American with Italian blood. In the end it will
probably just be American. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I wonder if
he knew it would be like that or if it was something he just had to do for
better or worse." He put his hand on her stomach and felt the baby stirring.
"We'll probably never know which it was, better or worse, until this one
is a grandfather. Him, inside there in the hall, he'll never know it. He just
came over and did it and wore himself out doing it and he'll never know one way
or the other."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">They sat and watched the traffic for a
while. Overhead, a few dozen stars were visible through the city haze.
"All right now?" he said.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; tab-stops: 6.0in 459.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Fine now," she said, "I just
needed some air."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Me, too," he said, realizing
suddenly that he had been uncomfortable, almost suffocatingly so, in the dense
air upstairs. "Let's go back in."</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">Halfway up the stairs he stopped and turned
toward her. "Hey," he said, "when we name the baby, let's give
him a name that you can't add a 'y' to."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; tab-stops: 6.0in 459.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The first heart attack laid the grandfather
up for a month. Three years later, in '71 (the same year in which Fabbrizio
died), he suffered another, and the family called for the priest. In the
following year he had a third, and the family persuaded him to close the store.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.9pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">He left the house rarely now, coming out only for the
most important occasions --- a wedding, a baptism. Most of the time he sat in
the big, comfortable chair in the den, napping or watching television. It did
not seem to matter to him what program was on or that the tint was almost always
maladjusted so that the faces all had a greenish cast. He still planted a
garden, as he had done ever since he had a small patch of his own earth in
which to dig, putting out a few dozen tomato plants, some cucumbers, some
parsley, some lettuce, and some eggplant. Now, however, once the planting was
finished, the gardening chores --- weeding, watering, picking the ripe produce ---
fell mostly to the grandmother, who was able to get around better than he was
and who still seemed to possess enough energy for the task.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.9pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: .35pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandmother complained that he was getting
forgetful. He often wore mismatched socks, fishing them out of the drawer even
though the grandmother had laid a clean, matched pair on top of the dresser
before going downstairs to fix breakfast. Once he had gone to keep a doctor's
appointment wearing the pants from one suit and the jacket from another.
Several times he had fallen asleep with a cigarette in his hand and had burned
a hole in the big chair in the den. (The grandmother tried to limit his
cigarettes as the doctor had ordered, but he was still canny enough to hide a
spare pack or two around the house.) Yet, though the grandfather could not have
explained it this way --- nor would he have tried to even if he could --- none
of this was truly forgetfulness. It was just that his mind was crowded now with
other things, with little bits and pieces of disconnected memories spread
across fifty years of family life in this strange country, above which
memories, like a bird or a cloud, floated another image, not yet fully formed
but pressing inexorably toward clarity, an image all light and warmth and old,
old earth. After the fourth attack, just last year, it filled his mind more
persistently and in sharper relief.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The room was emptying now. There were perhaps fifty or
sixty people left. The band finished the last of the fast, quasi-rock numbers
to which the younger members of the family had been dancing most of the
evening. (Earlier they had tried a tarantella, but few of the older generation
felt up to the challenge and fewer still of the young knew how.) The music
ended and the floor cleared and the band played The Anniversary Waltz one last
time to an empty floor. The waitresses had begun removing the tablecloths.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The grandson stood at the bar with the father. Across
the room, in front of the long table on the dais the grandfather and the
grandmother were arguing in Italian. The grandson smiled. "What's with
them?" he asked the father.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Oh," the father said, "just the usual.
Your grandfather's trying to convince her to go back to the old country for a
visit. He's been trying to talk her into that for the last six months
now."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"So maybe they should go," the grandson said.
"Maybe it would do him some good." He sipped his drink and looked
across at the grandfather. He seemed very old. "Maybe he's got something
more in mind than just a visit," he said. The father looked at him and did
not answer.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 12.25pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: -.25in; margin-right: 11.9pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The last of the guests were moving toward the cloakroom
now, and the grandfather and the grandmother moved slowly toward the door to
say goodbye. The grandson walked over to the table on the floor where his wife
was now sitting. "Tired?" he said.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">"Yes," he said. "Nice." He looked
over at his grandfather. "May your next fifty be as full as the last
fifty, Uncle Tom," someone was saying. "Thank you, thank you,"
the grandfather was saying. Behind him, on the buffet table, the ice sculpture
had melted somewhat so that its outline was now blurred. The grandson noticed how
uneasy, how weary, the old man's breathing was. He smiled and said thank you
and shook hands, but his eyes seemed far, far away. "Thank you," he
said, "thank you," (and it was not like a bird now, no, nor even like
a cloud; now it was clear and bright as the Sicilian sun, as vehement as the
Sicilian light, as warm and beckoning as the warm Sicilian<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>earth). "G'mon, Bert'," the
grandson heard him say, "I'm tire'. It's time. I wanna go home."</span></div>

should he feel moved to do so. I won't mind, and I don't care. They've got to
make a living too. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">My book is the definitive book on
the counter-cultural experiment. It is about the counter-cultural experiment
because a book must be about something, although that stricture is weakening
these days. The term "counter-cultural experiment" means that some of
the people in my book smoke marijuana. Some of them play with even harder
drugs, but then there is stupidity wherever you look. Life has always been like
that. For the record, I have been known to smoke a joint on occasion.
Personally, while as a matter of principle I would be reluctant to recommend
smoking grass to anyone, I doubt that it's worth quite as much fuss as we've
witnessed. Life is full of pitfalls and is always terminal, at least in the
physical sense as understood in this segment of time-space. That's as much as I
have to say on the subject. (My wife, who likes to get in the last word wherever
possible, wants me to add that pregnant women probably should not smoke, just
to be on the safe side. Cubs <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">in<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">utero</span></i></i>
are, after all, quite helpless, and prudence is a virtue.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">My book is the definitive book on
the counter-cultural experiment because I believe that if a thing is worth
doing, it is worth doing well. Such folksy wisdom may pop up here and there.
It's a lapse or a calculated effect, depending upon your discernment and
personal taste. Critics will be permitted to scream.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Some things you should know about my
book before you read it: </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">My book is written in the first
person singular (or plural, depending on how you look at it) because writing in
the first person is, they say, easier than writing in any other person,
singular or plural, for the simple reason that the terrain is more familiar.
Writing in the first person thus avoids many of the pitfalls that await an
unwary writer. These pitfalls are usually manufactured in the universities and
are deployed mainly by critics, who are, despite the recurrent tone evident in
these lines, a species of creature that I find engaging, in a comic sort of
way. My name appears under the title on the binding and on the title page and
at the end of this introduction because I think a man should always sign his
work, surgeons and a few others excepted. Sometimes, though, I appear under
another name in the book. The instances of this particular pathology will not
always be apparent, and I will not will not go to any trouble to point them out
beyond this brief mention. The reasons for this odd circumstance are either
deeply artistic or deeply psychological or both. Part of it too is that life
does that these days. If you think that sounds like an identity crisis you are
probably not spiritually mature enough to read this book, but if you're willing
to try anyway, I'm willing to give you the chance. All of the people in this
book are real people, some of them actually real and some of them real in the
way that people in books are real. If the real people in this book recognize
themselves and want to sue me, let them go ahead, although I doubt that they
have much of a case because mostly I liked them all and say only nice things.
(There are no critics in my book. They get their chance later.) If anyone sues
me and wins, I'll probably shoot myself. Sometimes I cheat like that.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">If you object to people who talk
about God you should not read my book. Sometimes I talk about God. My book is a
very spiritual book. If you object to people who talk about God and marijuana
in the same book, you should not read my book, for reasons that should be
apparent if you have been paying attention this far. I don't talk much about
sex in my book because most of us know how to do it already and those who don't
should ask their mother or their father because to do so will strengthen the
family and strengthening the family strengthens society, without which the
counter-culture (and thus my book) would not have existed. Gratitude is a mark
of civilization. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">There is a plot in my book, despite
appearances. There does not seem to be a plot because I wanted my book to be a
realistic book, and the temper of the age makes it difficult for us to see a
plot in anything, although it makes it necessary to see a conspiracy in
everything. Those of you who see a plot in life (the Chardinians) will see a
plot in my book; those of you who see no plot in life (the nihilists) will see
no plot in my book. Critics will be permitted to applaud this as an excellent
mating of intention to technique.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: .25in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 22.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Time in my book is spread out over
many years. My book is written in the eternal immediate, which is a
psychological tense analogous to the infinitive mode of a verb. I am not
particularly careful about time in my book, but the attentive reader should be
able to manage the shifts. If there is any trouble, write me and I will forward
a personal explanation. If I get more than twenty-five letters I will consider
myself a failure and will probably kill myself.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">My book is dedicated to the several forms of
hysteria and to a fervent hope for sanity<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">, my own and the world's.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">A
breech birth, I was born ass backwards and have lived my life thus thereafter.
Disorienting though such a fate may seem, there are unique advantages to it.
Had I been native born --- aboriginal --- my tribe would have deemed me one
touched by the Spirit and accorded my eccentricities reverent indulgence…as it
is, my condition permits me to recover (at least psychologically) all that I
have squandered at a variety of tribal casinos.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 1.1pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: auto; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">There is much opportunity
for virtue in such moving backward. It handily solves all problems of loss and
of regret. One recedes through all one’s sins toward one’s original grace,
through all one’s lost loves back to love itself. It is a movement counter to
the movement of the world, the “long way ‘round the barn” to the future, a
miraculous adventure fraught with peril, pregnant with surprise. It has the
potential to resolve time’s thornier equations, to close the circle Alpha and
Omega. A soul so constituted understands intimately the old saw that casts past
as prologue. It normalizes <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">déjà vu</i>: what
most call memory it experiences as premonition. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 1.1pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: auto; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Though such an orientation
may be rare, it is not entirely unique. Fitzgerald had a sense of this: see <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Curious Case of Benjamin Button</i>. Martin
Amis turns the intuition toward the sinister in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Time’s Arrow</i>. Dylan sings of being <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“so much older then”</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“younger
than that now.” </i>And Scripture speaks of a path whereon “<i>old</i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> things are passed away” </i>and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“<span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">all
things</span> are become <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">new.” </span></i><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">Nor are<i> </i>literature and faith the sole
incubators of such liberating illogic. Physics seeks to follow matter back along
the warp of time to the origin both of matter and of time. Biology yearns to map
the declension of individual genomes rearward to the discovery of the primal
gene. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">Some fleeting glimpses of these and similar wonders have I noted along
the way, Burma Shave signs for the soul seen in retrograde as I accelerate
toward my beginning.</span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">There
is some time yet before the bus arrives to take us home, rescued from the
bustle and the bells, returned to a simulacrum of serenity, a levelheaded dream
of sanity. As to my departure there is no urgency...but I am no longer young and
subject now to other urgencies. </span></div>

immobile, inert in a communal solitude as private as prayer, standing, face to

just a very long and very thorough education...</i>standing still, patiently
awaiting the next labored spurt <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">cada vez
con menos fuerza </i>bemused to bathroom bathos by the smell of disinfectant
layered on the odors of digestion a<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">nd business
must grow regardless of crummies in tummies, you know</i> immobilized for the
instant between Lorca and Lorax, all the disjunct flotsam of certain knowledge
long exploded and contemplation lamed by doubt <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">my thoughts remain below</i> flowing past the impassive inner eye,
accelerant and flickering <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">as if a magic

downthought through the rapids toward the cascade where ends the stream of

observe my face in the mirror, studying for the length of a jingle <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">happy</i> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">birthday dear</i> the lineaments of vain reflection gouged deep into my

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">My life is an anecdote, and anecdote is fact <i>refusing</i>
to become mere statistic. It is the truer image of reality, the dispositive
shadow of freedom. I decline to be a datum. I dismiss the notion of my self and
my reality as composite number, Cartesian and graphable. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I refuse the averaged certainty of the science
through which I move. I insist upon another vision, a wider freedom. And all
that I hold as honor <i>simply the morality of superior</i> lies in this, that I
cannot care that my insistence is powerless against the insistence of a world <i>fiction
used by the herd</i> <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>that I am in but
not of. In this world thought's kaleidoscopic, a stream of words and images momentarily
present to the inner eye, glassine slivers of education and experience brightly
colored and backlit by memory, suspended between the transitory and the static,
briefly coalescing then just as quickly dissolving refragmenting and reforming,
an endless progression of patterns at once engaging and incomprehensible, a shimmering
fractal, individual, unique, irrepeatable --- a soul, a self...one's only real possession...one's

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">I dip my hands into the Dyson Blade, <i>thar she
blows </i>the wind impressed for humble service <i>hast seen the white whale?</i>
the gale domesticated,<i> </i>monetized and marketed...life's longboat swamped
by commerce. To breathe is to buy and sell: the world's respiration, the
moneychanger's moral<i> my conscience 'tis of thee, sweet land of prodigality. </i>On
the wall to my right a gray block vaguely resembling a postal box labeled in distressed
red, a hygienic concession to frailty and fear and fatality: Sharps Disposal.
Wherein to dispose of letters and of wit? <i>but three to write you down</i>…there
are whole days now when I fear I've lost mine...which only serves to prove that
I'm American and not alone <i>God lent his grace to</i>…and what then when the
note comes due?<i> </i><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Kaleidoscopic.
Signs and symbols. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The old man leaving <i>having
laved</i>, stately, proper, with only the slightest awkward curvature to his
spine, a minute off beat to the rhythm of his step <i>hitch in his giddy-up </i>pulls
an extra paper towel to shield his touch from lurking danger on the door
handle, germs invisible and malignant. An<i> </i>infestatious<i> </i>world<i> Clorox
disinfectant wipes</i> wherein perhaps we ought to bathe in bleach. A new
baptism.<i> <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i>Reckless, I grab the
handle unprotected and yank it sharply past my shoulder, startling yet another
aged entrant. <i>Sorry.</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The air, approaching evening, is cool and pleasant,
still a lower sixties in the receding sun without a notable damp and easily
breezed. The bench, black metal, manufactured not forged, unremarkable, an
object only, a mere convenience shiny and democratic, affords a moment’s
comfort more or less. My hips hurt. The coach is due in half an hour. I light a
cigarette. Outcast. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The canopy above in
protecting from the weather blocks as well a view of the overhead sky, forcing
vision forward across the bustle of the highway opposite to the rolling hills
beyond, forested and unmolested, a native nation, reserved, tribal, sovereign.
A wispy veil of cigarette smoke curls up before my face, suspended briefly in
the lee between breezes, and then dissolves, as fleeting as the memories of the
aged <i>ah, but I was so much older then </i>and I pan the springtime sky above
the verdant hills, vast, unbroken, cloudless. A hawk, in silent poise rapine
and attentive, glides in purposed circles between earth and sky, patrolling for
game <i>turn, turn, turn…turning in the widening gyre </i>and I watch its timeless
circuit with the same impassioned unconcern with which I now mark the passage
of the days and the changing of the seasons</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">…</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><i>in the juvenescence of</i>…we

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14pt;">It is a triumph of education and a victory of
the understanding to see the world as a vast and comprehensive hospice and,
accordingly, to credit triage as the foremost of human obligations, the noblest
of its professions.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 14pt; margin: 0in -2pt 0pt 1.1pt; mso-layout-grid-align: auto; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14pt;">I have been indoctrinated (as indeed I imagine
have we all) to hold that diversity is a virtue, a bedrock value of American
consciousness and a wellspring of national strength. I have my doubts. That <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">America</st1:country-region></st1:place>
comprises a myriad of races, of nationalities, of religions, of souls across
vast ranges of development and education is certain and confirmed by the
simplest observation. But that this diversity is, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">in and of itself</i>, virtuous, valuable, or strengthening is much more
open to question. Several weeks of steady attention to the evening news is all
that is needed to prompt a contemplative pause, and a single full lifetime's
disjunct recollections --- sixty, seventy, eighty years' worth --- is, for some
souls, sufficient to bring thought itself nearly to a dead halt: a diversity of fools is no paradise.</span><br />

vehicle which makes the thought experiment actual (only authorship differing) and exponentially accelerates the process, producing thereby not
Hamlet but at best a rare coherent thought, a solitary worthy sentence. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">From each according to his ability, to each according to his
need.</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">
It can be said with more than a modicum of historical certainty that the
approach to reality constellated in this thought, popularized by Marx as a
navigational waypoint to a perfected society, has been in our lifetime
thoroughly discredited, and, to judge solely by the suffering wrought in the
course of the its experiential elaboration, justifiably so. Western capitalism
stands triumphant. But whether this triumph is the result of its absolute
correspondence to an immutable truth of the human psyche or merely evidence of
a temporally conditioned superiority to its prime historical antagonist is as
yet unclear; the judgment awaits a much longer unfolding, requires most likely
the millennial scope of a history yet unlived, impossible now to write and thus
secure against analysis.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 1.1pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Nonetheless, such
security is insufficient proof against a grave doubt that now and then troubles
still thought and silent observation: that capitalism ascendant has done little
more than wrench the dictum of defeated Marxism inside out and set about its
societal navigation according to a precept that time will prove to be equally
errant, equally soul deadening: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">From each
according to his need, to each according to his ability.</i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 1.1pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; margin-top: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">What we understand as
capitalism is the effort to monetize all reality, to apotheosize metrics and to
insist that only that is actual that yields to calculation. It labors to submit
all existence to the rule of number, to establish the notion of metrics as the first
principle of the universe, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">and</i> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">to proceed on the basis of that effort to
reorganize matter</i>. This project of the human psyche, seemingly based on
knowledge as certain as that divinely revealed, as discoverable as that
inherent in the scientifically observed, is then understood, at least in the
West, as essential to the architecture of society, the very fundament of
reason. This is so most fervently in America, where it is held,
correctly or otherwise, to be enshrined in the national foundational documents
and thus definitive of the common consciousness, the very substance of the
national identity. Certainly, unbiased thinking grants that material
reorganization is perhaps the central force of human history, and observation
confirms it as at least the most immediately perceptible. Indeed, though it disdains
the qualification and asserts only the declarative, all our science shares the
germ of this thought. But science does not stand alone in consideration of this
project.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">For what
shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his
soul? </span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">It
is not necessary to subscribe to any theology to find value in this caution;
even unflinching reason, having divested itself of any consideration of the
divine as actual, finds it possible, perhaps even logically necessary, to see
in scripture, itself a foundational document, an elementally valid modeling of
human psychological and social development. Still, though it reluctantly grant
a psychological value to such scriptural modeling, reason may yet refuse to
abstract from that concession a blanket proscription against profit.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Reason recognizes need as a consequence
of the materiality of the world through which we move. That materiality is
questionable only in the more esoteric schools of philosophy and physics, its
primal importance debatable most appropriately only in those of theology and
psychology. Life as we live it --- the life of the five senses, the life of the
frailty of the flesh and of its mortality, the life of the tenuous coherence of
solidity and thought --- demands that we recognize in matter and in need as a
consequence of matter a bedrock of reality, especially so as our technology
drives relentlessly toward an engulfing simulacrum of the material, a virtual
unreality complete with entirely new, entirely unreal, needs.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">In answering the persistent question of
need, capitalism presents itself as a sort of perpetual motion device,
sustained, like the universe itself,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>by<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>limitless expansion and dogged
replication. Capital, effectively assembled, begets profit, which is assembled
as new capital which in turn begets new profit and so on endlessly self
renewing, a<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>fugue of plenty. This dim
mimicry of the most basic biological drive toward perpetuity ensures that the
notion of "profit" occupy an enduring position in the structure of
the rational mind. Again, simple observation appears to confirm not only the
inherent reasonableness of that notion but also the superiority of social
organization on a capitalist model as the manifestly most efficient means for
the generation of profit and by virtue of such generation the satisfaction of
need.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.9pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">All well and good. The prevalent American
notion of capitalism as a fundamentally utopian mechanism seems justified. Upon
reflection, however, simple observation falters. How then account for the
prevalence of discord? Having granted the reasonableness of profit and the
efficacy of capitalism in its production, the question devolves to this: is
there then, in a truly free society, an inherent necessity for some manner of
constraint on profit and its accumulation? And from that this corollary
question: can a society be judged truly free absent such constraint?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.15pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.85pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Society
does not exist for the creation of profit; profit exists for the creation of
society.</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">
All that we identify as the flaw in the more common understanding of capitalism
and capitalist endeavor derives from the failed apprehension of this primal
reality. The oft repeated notion that the highest virtue and most durable
strength of American society is to be found in the putative opportunity it
provides to every individual to accumulate without restriction as much wealth
as talent and good fortune permit, so long as that accumulation be accomplished
within the law, is suspect. Capitalism tends toward malevolence to the extent
that the goal of capitalist endeavor is understood to be simply the
unrestrained accumulation of wealth; it is then mere profiteering.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.15pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.85pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">To deflect from
capitalist thought this and similar indictments requires that both reason and
the soul's innate yearning for justice be satisfied by the term of the defense,
a defense that therefore requires an earnest consideration not only of the
mechanics of capitalism but also of its purposes. Such consideration must
endeavor to apply itself both in the aggregate and in the individual case, in
the corporate as in the personal instance. As a consequence of our
understanding of freedom, reason demands that we acknowledge a right to be
rich; as a consequence of our understanding of justice, the soul insists that
such a right be somehow tempered.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.15pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.85pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Capitalism, like any
economic system, must prove itself capable first of satisfying the basic needs
of the society it organizes; these basic needs are understood to be the root
exigencies of material existence: food, shelter, clothing. Minimally provided
with these, man can survive; limited to these minimums, he will likely go mad.
Thus as capitalism succeeds as an organizing force it encounters the social and
civilizing imperative to amplify its understanding of basic need and place
further and accelerating emphasis on education and security. Having assured
itself, whether by demonstration or delusion, of its superior fitness to
satisfy these basic needs, capitalism then turns its attention to securing its
perpetuity and does so by creating entirely new need...and in the process often
confuses novelty with progress. It is in the creation of such new need (the
peculiar genius of American capitalism), in its pre-emptive nature and narrow
focus, that capitalism lays itself open to suspicion.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.15pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.85pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The impetus of American
capitalism as presented in its simplest form to the soul<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>--- its focus, its driving force, that which
when it reflects upon itself it recognizes as its root and justification --- is
the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">production</i> of profit. It is
precisely at this point, profit having been produced, that American capitalism
must be submitted to the strictures of distributive justice and is thereby <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>subject to the authority of the State, acting
upon its charge to "ensure domestic tranquility." Taxation is the compulsive
fiscal mechanism whereby this authority is manifested. To the extent that its
employment is for purposes beyond those constitutionally proper (for example,
provision for the common defense), taxation is most effectively considered as
essentially compensatory to a deficit of societal <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">caritas </i>and as such is a corrective necessary only to the extent
that the capitalist dynamic is flawed, failed, or unresolved. It is not <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">structurally</i> necessary to submit
capitalism to the norms of distributive justice; properly ordered capitalism <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">is</i> the norm of distributive justice. But
that proper ordering must move capitalist thought beyond the production of profit
to its deployment.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-right: -2.15pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 33.85pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Again: society
does not exist for the creation of profit; profit exists for the creation of
society</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">.
It is in this sense that greed is not only an individual moral failing but
social sabotage as well. It is not that so many of the rich make so much money
that piques the soul and disturbs the social equilibrium, it is that so many of
them spend so much of it on themselves.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">Midlife crisis: the first stirrings of a real awareness of
human mortality. Somewhere in our thirties the fact of death, individual and
intimate, begins to become a clear reality for us. In youth the same intuition
comes only in a few ways: in war, with premature disease, through deep religious feeling.... If it's
too severe to say that up to the moment of that intuition life is mere
frivolity, it's nonetheless fair to say that it lacks mass. It is a matter of
some curiosity that our culture seems only recently to have chosen to make of
this particular crisis of awareness a standardized rite of passage.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">I wonder if I feel compelled any longer to search for
something, anything, that I can truthfully call substantial. It seems to me
that I felt such a compulsion once, perhaps when I was much younger, perhaps as
recently as last week. Living under necessity has detuned me. Often it seems to
me that I can no longer think, that whatever thoughtstuff I have available is
spent entirely in the exercise of a domestic routine. I admit offhand the
obvious: domestic routine patiently nurtured becomes domestic virtue and so
transformed is reward by nature. Good sense affirms this and I will not
doubt it. But that such patient virtue is the crowning achievement of human
struggle some intuition, stirred perhaps by minor devils and by deities
deposed, rails against, and I take warning. This thoughtlessness is lifelessness.</span></div>

moments, the catalogue of our fears is ever expanding. Condemned to deal with a
reality preternaturally out of scale, we find ourselves divorced from our own
bodies, the only place where anything even remotely like morality can be
rooted.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">Is it true that all this is the result of rebellion only,
the fruit of hard headedness? Can it be true that there is no way to commit to
reconciliation other than at last to collapse entirely into conformity with a

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">To be understood at all, America must be understood morally.
At its structural root, America
is designed to encourage the free operation of moral principles, that is, to
foster the exercise of natural moral understanding. America
prospers as her moral integrity flourishes; America declines as her moral
integrity declines. In the fundamental recesses of the soul, at that level at
which he understands beyond the possibility of articulation, the American is a
moralist. Intuitively he understands not only that he is capable of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">nothing but</i> moral judgments but also
that his very existence therefore <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">compels</i>
him to make them. This compulsion of necessity demands "discrimination," a word thoughtlessly anathematized in the murk of the current social
lexicon --- an unfortunate circumstance that works to confuse his innate moral sense, restricting the scope of its
operation to the merely juridical. Hence his emphasis, short-sighted and pharisaic,
on fact. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">It requires but little elaboration to demonstrate that the
world has expended a great deal of effort in institutionalizing death. The
phenomenon of death-in-life is adequately documented and is perfectly
observable anyway to those of us who do not wish to exhaust ourselves with the
documents. Life itself is always more elusive. Constitutionally antagonistic to
analysis, life flees that method which seeks to break it into its component
parts. Life is inherently synthetic, as any student of elementary biology will
attest; analysis is a particularly human phenomenon and frequently constitutes
the greatest misunderstanding and abuse of reason. Yet most of our history is
based on such analysis. For us, analysis always precedes synthesis; hence our
current premonitions of genetic engineering. The secrets of "life"
having been successfully analyzed, it now becomes the task of the scientist to
attempt the next logical step, that is, synthesis. That this is a false (as
well as a diabolical) reasoning seems scarcely to have occurred to anyone. If
ever there was reason for<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>intelligent
and moral men to rise in furor, this is it. The error of human history lies
simply in attempting repeatedly to take the kingdom of heaven by storm, to
wrest from nature what is already ours if only we will permit it to develop
along its natural lines. The human mania for control is misplaced; were men to
control themselves, the extension of control to areas not within human scope
would be unnecessary. Failing in the attempt (failing to make the attempt) to
control themselves, men choose instead to control that which is exterior to
them, not realizing that this is a false, potentially fatal, pursuit.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">America</span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">'s fundamental principle is the
principle<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>of religious liberty.
Regardless of the subsequent vagaries of her development, it remains defensible
to hold as true that America
was founded on the religious integrity of the individual. All else is an outgrowth
of this principle. Politically speaking (that is, speaking of the real, the
noumenal, distribution of power in its phenomenal manifestations) America is the
child not of the Enlightenment but of the Reformation. It is the testing ground
for the questions posed and the answers posited by the Reformation.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; letter-spacing: .7pt;">Weary of analysis, of vivisection, we turn slowly toward
some synthesis, some hope of unity which, in turn, grows as monstrous, as
wearying as that precedent paradigm from which we sought to escape.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Ours is a
goal oriented culture. From childhood we are exhorted to be something. Later
the emphasis of the exhortation shifts. Having at last arrived at the enviable
position of being something, we are at once encouraged to do something. The
more serious this something is, the higher the level of civilization, of
sensibility, we are assumed to have achieved. There is a deep-seated prejudice
in our cultural unconscious that whimsy --- which is usually identified with
laziness --- is at least psychologically un-American and possibly legally
unconstitutional.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I am no
more immune to this conditioning than is anyone else, and I am as willing as
the next man to try to measure up to what is reasonably expected of me.
Consequently, I have spent a large part of my life diligently attempting to determine
what it is I ought to be and do. Having found the first of these determinations
impossible to make, I eventually decided to concentrate on the second. It is
true, of course, that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">doing</i> something
is considerably complicated if one has foregone the attempt at <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">being</i> something, but I can report with
satisfaction that the difficulty is not insurmountable.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I meet the
central issue head on and with reckless abandon: the lot of man is not a happy
one. History teaches that fear, misery, pain, suffering, loneliness, disease,
dread, and death have been man's prime inheritance and his constant companions
throughout his long exile on this modestly verdant rock. Whether or not Lord
Destruction is sovereign of the entire universe I leave to the physicists, the
astronomers, and their fellow Pythagoreans to decide; that He holds forth on
this infinitesimal and inconsequential dust speck province of the limitless
galaxies I judge for myself to be the case. The 'apostles of progress' cannot
sway me; incorrigible yea-sayers, impervious to evidence, they are nonetheless
as entitled as I am to play out the charade as suits them best. God laughs at
them no more heartily than at me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">My own
position is difficult to define. I am fond of man, despise though I may the conditions
which he has created, conditions which make life an indulgence and sanity a
luxury. The human organism is unsuited to the societies we have constructed, as
the proliferation of our mental illnesses will readily attest, and all our efforts
to improve these conditions, directed as they are to exacerbating our
distractions and further distorting our contact with the truly biological, the
truly neurological, the truly real, will do no more than accelerate our
decline. We could perhaps see the hand of fate in all this had our sense not
grown so dull, so coarse, that we have difficulty enough discerning that hand
when it strikes a sudden blow let alone discerning it when it does no more than
beckon suggestively.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">At its root
the word "progress," which is the modern catchword for the whole
process of growing into maturity, presupposes severance, and thus, for its
fulfillment, its elaboration,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>necessitates reconciliation. As men we take our first steps only by
leaving behind that by which and into which we were born. We purchase our first
freedom by virtue of a separation from that which brought us into the world.
This is the pain of motherhood,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the
price of citizenship. There is a sense in which expatriation is a prerequisite
of liberty, a law of freedom. Hard though it is,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>this seems to be a requirement of America: there
is no liberty without a prior alienation.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">However
much one hopes to avoid the rigors of a thorough self-examination and for
whatever reasons, the fact remains that the evasion to which such hope
necessarily gives rise is necessarily limited in its scope. There is something
of the universal law in the Socratic dictum,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>however much our common history or our individual circumstance might
incline us to deny it. It is of the essence of universal law that it express the
imperative, the unavoidable; thus the time inevitably comes when a man must submit
himself to the scalpel of his own scrutiny.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">That there
is danger in this goes without saying. Truth kills: the whole of our culture
attests to this fact, and does so, remarkably enough, almost in the same breath
with which it witnesses that truth liberates. We weave our lives of such
contradictions. Still, no rational man dismisses the danger lightly. It is
possible to know oneself too well, and often only a salutary illusion permits our retaining our balance. Who can dismiss out of hand the intuition that the
economy wherein we spend our lives has just and vital need of illusion? It is
true that the unreflected life is not worth living, but there is more than a
mere possibility that it is true also that what passes most often for self
examination is a pale and puritan hubris and that the genuine article is contracted
for by the sane only under duress. To say that a man can truly encounter his
soul only when he is fully ready to do so is also to say that he puts the task
off until he has no choice. We retard our spiritual maturity as our parents
retarded our adolescence, and it is by this act that we identify ourselves as
the legitimate progeny of our age, as the children of experience (and, one may
be permitted to hope, as the sires of a wisdom).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I am not
what I seen to be: this is perhaps the central truth of our collective
humanity, a proclamation to which each man is entitled, the vision which sets
us free. Our tragedy and our abdication as men lies in this, that we allow
ourselves to see only on the surface, whether we direct our gaze inwards or
toward others. We indulge ourselves in distractions, take as being vital those
things which are only peripheral, expend our best energies on inconsequential
solidities. In short, we make the mistake of equating only that which is
tangible with that which is real. I believe that human life is the struggle for
the human soul --- the old catholic verities stripped of their supportive
dogmatics --- and I know that the crux of the devil's strategy lies in
misdirecting our attention.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I often
wonder whether the creator suffered from stage fright. Brief enough in
detailing the mechanics of the progenitive operation, the scriptures are
positively mute as to the divinity's state of mind as he began his week's work.
Granted, we are informed that he was pleased with his efforts at each day's
end, but in regard to the divine analogue of emotion we are left completely in
the dark beyond that brief understatement. Could his efforts have been so
completely different in kind from my own, from the efforts of any terrified
mortal who attempts to mimic that creative function? I shrink from sitting
before this machine for that very reason --- a peculiar species of stage fright
--- uncertain whether my powers are as real, as effective, as I would like to
believe. Must not god have felt a certain small twinge of anxiety confronting
the silent emptiness out of which he was to work, the incomprehensible
emptiness of his own thought? Must there not have been a brief instant of
uncertainty, of wondering whether the thing could possibly come out right? Subsequent
events have shown that such a hesitation would have been fully merited, and to
deny god that moment's pause to reconsider might be construed as calling divine
foresight severely into question. Bad enough to miscalculate in regard to man
(creation's pinnacle --- if history still permits that hubris --- spitefully
becoming a paragon of indeterminacy, as if a willful adverb were to insert
itself into any sentence as it pleased, without regard to grammar) but to pass
off that miscalculation as a finished work.... We are forced to an unpleasant
choice: either there is hidden somewhere in the scheme a provision for
correction, for editing, or we must doubt god's artistic sense, his taste, and
even the sincerity of his artistic impulse. We need only to consider what
educated opinion would make of any artist who pawned off less than his best work;
the integrity of the genuine artist would not tolerate such a self-deception. I
find it difficult to believe in a god less demanding of himself than Beethoven.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">No, I am
forced to this act of faith: god is no dilettante. Einstein could believe Him
to be subtle but not malicious, a conclusion based upon his conception of god
as thinker; the same conclusion must follow from a conception of god as maker,
as artist: his work may be difficult to fathom, but it is not shoddy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">God's
creative impulse is the substance, the theme, of the universe, displayed in
endless variation, an instantaneous and eternal act of virtuosity and, like all
great art (which, of its essence, imitates this initial art) it is imbued with
the power to transform those who behold it and clasp it to their souls. This is
an inexorable psychological law --- there is much to meditate upon here ---
that no one may properly encounter great art and come away unchanged.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Ours is the
age of hard data, the age of the fact triumphant. That it is also the age of
the Fact misunderstood too often escapes our attention. Like adolescent
schoolboys overcompensating for an inability to grasp the fundamentals of
algebra, we reserve our highest praise for that statistical intelligence capable
of thoroughly quantifying our experience and rendering our pains
"harmlessly" numerical. Though we may decry the increasing dominance
of the number, the truth is that in the secret recesses of our hearts (where
resides our meanness as well as our purity) we are all fellow travelers of the
Pythagorean party. Awed by the successes of technology --- which successes are
simply the number made manifest, the number Incarnate--- we allow ourselves to
be blinded to the number's essential estrangement from life.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">The man of the
number is likely to view life primarily as an equation. Initially a convention,
a matter of convenience, this bias eventually appropriates a pervasive status;
the unconscious is notoriously omnivorous. In accepting the results of his
labor we inherit also his myopia. In the short term this does not seem so
debilitating a defect, particularly when compared with the choice that the man
of the word offers us. More likely to view life as a "liquid mystery"
than as an equation, the man of the word is prohibited by his nature from
offering us anything more than a minute and honest examination of his own
experience, that is, an individualized intensification of our common
discomforts: the physician who diagnoses an incurable disease is rarely a welcome
guest. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Many
learned men have exercised their gifts on describing in minute detail the exact
progression by which social organization came into being and have produced collectively
an immense corpus of books, unintelligible to all but a few and read by none
but the brave. Having been sentenced at various stages of my education to
suffer one or the other of these theoretical works, I feel justified in
presenting my synopsis of these weighty tomes by saying simply that man
organizes socially to facilitate the process whereby he fills his belly and
empties his bowels.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I will not
have a birthplace. I refuse the imposition of one. I relinquish the right to
one. To accede to having a birthplace is but the first step in acceding to a
purely statistical life, the organized but irrevocably inorganic
objectification that seems to be the (dubious) crowning achievement of our
culture, its apotheosis and its degradation. I am to freedom born as surely as royalty
of old were engendered into the purple, the scepter, and the throne.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Trace my
lineage to books if you must seek roots, to books, which taught me to doubt
appearances long before it occurred to me to understand that the world could be
conceived as existing --- only pseudonymously, I now admit --- under the
separate species of Reality and Appearance. I am as much a creature of paper
and ink as I am a creature of flesh and blood, and all these things --- paper,
ink, flesh, blood --- whirling in the cosmic chemistry, brewed in the cauldron
of the universe, self- and infra-transmuting, become (now thought, now spirit,
ever me and ever some others) the humbling mystery of personality.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I play
these random chords to heighten certain premonitions. Should I perhaps align
myself with more musical ruminations and, deciding upon a dozen arbitrary
themes, compose a serial score, a twelve-tone variation on the variegated unity
of being? Freed from the tyranny of the tonic I would then enjoy an advantage in
an environment that tends to deny the existence of the Tonic (or, oblivious of
the subtle and disruptive transposition of key, hears as tonic only Impersonal
Law). In a word, I would become 'modern.'</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">And so the
round continues: row, row, row your boast...It is neither tiring nor exhilarating,
it simply is and it simply goes on. The burst of motive power, the shout, the
cry, the impassioned tears, the broken sob: these remain but the soul declines
them, declines to use them to express what it now feels, what it now
knows.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It stands helpless, silent,
humble in the presence of its great discovery (or is it only on the verge, is
it perhaps always only on the verge) and it realizes the futility and the
triumph and realizes them simultaneously so that a new feeling, a new thought, a
new emotion is born, one never thought before, one never felt before, one
unnamed, unspoken (unspeakable) --- for to name it,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to speak it, to skewer it with a word would
make it something other than the thing that it is, something other than the
new, unique and individual emotion-thought-feeling that the soul knows it to
be.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">So they
tell us we must invent a vocabulary, invent a language that we might express
what this new thing is: but the mind knows the limits of language, the mind knows
that language --- all language, any language, any form of language --- is
finite and in the finitude of language it sees it own finitude. Make me a
language of air moved beneath a bird's wing southbound from the snow. Make me a
language of baby-fevers and Easter eggs. Make me a language of light to match
the sea swells of my soul. Make me this language and I might learn to speak.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Hope. What
a strange word! I remember that once, in one of the several worlds through
which I have traveled, I knew a woman, fine and lithe, who told me,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>flushed with the excess confidence of
undressed youth, that she had no hope.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
remember telling her that I was full of hope but that at the moment I was short
on faith. Faith, she responded, was her strong suit. Perhaps we should have
married; such myopics deserve one another. We did not. Fate (or wisdom)
intervened, and we followed separate, but perhaps parallel, paths. Eventually I
found something resembling faith, characteristically failing to notice how
familiar it felt to me, like an old corduroy jacket worn full of life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Perhaps, in time, she found something
resembling hope. I like to think so,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and
these days I think very little that I do not like to think. How is it that I
now find it so difficult to care for the "larger issues" of life?
(How is it that life was ever foolish enough to become involved with
"larger issues"?) We confuse life and the world. The world is perhaps
no more than the irreducible waste product of life, and we have perhaps
mistaken the refuse for the reality.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
am tempted to say that I do not really know, that it is all beyond my poor
ability to comprehend. Alas, I cannot indulge that temptation. Something in me
does know, something in me is certain even beyond the limits of certainty.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It becomes so difficult to lie, even in the
small things. That, I suppose, must be accounted a gain.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I am confused by the controversy over
gay marriage. Indeed, I am wearied by it and wish to settle my opinion and move
on.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">From the point of view of a secular
society --- which, properly speaking, is the only point of view permitted any
state save a theocracy --- "marriage" is entirely a matter of
contract law. The duties, rights, responsibilities and privileges attendant
upon "marriage" are wholly civil matters. In granting a
"marriage license" the State acknowledges the intent of the
applicants to enter into a specific binding contract definitive of such duties,
rights, responsibilities and privileges and simultaneously indicates that it
will recognize the validity of such a contract and administer it as it does any
other contract freely entered into, as a matter of civil law. The State,
therefore, is itself responsible for the current confusion and controversy by
virtue of its continuing to issue "marriage licenses," a
demonstration of its failure either to understand or to clearly express the nature
of its interest and authority.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">As its interest in and administration
of this contractual arrangement is exclusively civil, the State can only issue
licensure for entry into a Civil Union. This limitation on its authority holds
regardless of the gender of the contracting parties, and the State can only
decline to issue such licensure, again regardless of the gender of the
contracting parties, to the extent that the applicants fail to meet the common
criteria of age, rationality, and free volition requisite by law for entry into
any contract. The resolution of the conflict, then, lies in the State's ceasing
to issue "marriage licenses" altogether and, in accord with its
proper authority, to issue only licensure for Civil Union. As the State's
interest is confined solely to reality under law --- to the contractual nature
of the union --- it has no stake in the semantic squabble; parties bound
contractually in such a union are free to refer to their joined status as a
marriage if they so choose, whether it is formalized before an exclusively
civil official --- a judge, magistrate, justice of the peace, etcetera --- or
sanctified by a religious body in accordance with the dictates of its communal
conscience.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "\0022Times New Roman\0022"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Indentured (as are we all) to the implacable
exigencies of material existence, I served a long, happy, satisfying, productive
and profitable employment at the Cleveland Museum of Art, ending as its
Director of Facilities, in which role I assisted in the institutional
navigation of its complex and compelling re-imagining. Simultaneous with that
social effort, I pursued several equally compelling private endeavors. I was
for several years the cartoon editor of Eschatology Today, the renown (and too
little referenced) journal of end time speculation. I sat for a number of years
on the board of Escuela Oscura y Tragica, the highly regarded Life Preparatory
Institute founded by distant relatives of Miguel de Unamuno, the Spanish
essayist, novelist, poet, playwright, philosopher, and professor of classical
Greek. I still serve on the Collections Committee of the Museo de los Pecados de
la Humanidad, the Institute's cultural outreach center in Sonora, California.
I was a contributing editor to <i>Elucidations: A Compendium of Profundities for
All Occasions</i>, winner of the 2006 Writers' Forum Bukowski Bar Tab Award. An
amateur gardener, I regularly contributed articles to <i>West Virginia Hill
Country Horticulture</i> and <i>New Age Gardening.</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "\0022Times New Roman\0022"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Upon my retirement from the Cleveland Museum of
Art I was honored to be named Managing Director of Say What?, the
litero-technic collective founded in the early 1970s by my esteemed mentor and
teacher, the late Alexander Burnbridge (see this blog of 27 September 2014).
Working across media disciplines under the umbrella of what we call the
Cassandra Project, we are presently engaged in assembling Burnbridge's
voluminous notes, drawings, film and video clips, wire frame sculptures, and
musical fragments for theremin and baritone recorder --- what he referred to
collectively as his "plastic intellections and psycho-active
assemblages" --- into the "instantaneously accessible multi-loci
simultaneity" that he predicted would only become comprehensible in the
last decades of the twenty-first century. Determined both to affirm that
prediction and to best its timeline, we hope to present it by 2026 as a "symphonic
perturbation" under Burnbridge's own working title, <i>The Big Whirly: Life
As Ontological Theme Park.</i></span></div>

<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">My parents cautioned me to avoid to the strictest
extent possible for as long as possible these things in this world: doctors,
lawyers, and conversations about politics or religion. Advancing years make the
avoidance of doctors increasingly more desirable, increasingly less possible.
Casual observation and brief reflection effectively demonstrate that in America our
lives are enmeshed by lawyers, despite any and all effort to decline formal
commerce with them. The profusion of pundits throughout all media is proof that
not only is any caution against political conversation more honored in the
breach than in the observance but that the consistent disregard of that caution
constitutes a materially profitable industry.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That leaves conversations about religion. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Appropriate certainly in Sunday sermons and schools
of theology, perhaps also in self-help groups, spiritualist covens, and
psychological coffee klatches, such conversations are deemed to have little
substantial merit --- apart from the obligatory nod and timid lip service paid
to "shared values" --- in the national discussions of a society
inviolably committed to the separation of church and state.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That is, until the mounting pressure of events
drives thought toward reexamination.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Which brings us to the current situation, to Islamic
extremism, to the rise of the Isilian calumnate, to the terror born of an
illness in Islam, to a publicly declared and brutally elaborated ideology so
opposed to any conceivable understanding of the nature of God as to constitute
not a faith but a slander on faith, a blasphemy against both reason and belief.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">To characterize the evolving conflict as a "war
on extremism" is to ignore the central fact of its religious specificity
and by so doing to cripple the national ability to confront it. To consider it
from a historical perspective fundamentally as the eruption of an abstract
political force onto the world stage is equally debilitating. What we are now
observing in its nascent stage is Islamic extremism. It is political Islam, the
imposition by force of sharia theocracy. The religious qualifier is genetic of
the phenomenon and essential to our understanding of it. To refuse that
qualifier admittance to our thought and to our speech is to render thought
empty and speech mute.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It is insufficient to deploy in opposition to such a
religious consciousness merely the vapid theologism of a "coexist"
bumper sticker, regardless of how fundamental the value of tolerance is to
one's understanding of existence and to the social structure of one's nation. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Let me walk with you
and see the face of your God that I may show you the face of Mine.</i>
Tolerance may begin there. All may undertake such a pilgrimage. But all on that
long ecumenical walk must recognize in what they see something familiar, each
to his own soul and all to that shared by all souls, regardless of the
angle or acuity of one's particular vision or of the distance from which one
looks. And all must reject the absolutely unrecognizable, the absolutely alien.
Faced with abject depravity we can't all "just get along."</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">I acknowledge that our culture makes the requisite
conversation difficult. What we call freedom is perhaps the highest of our
spiritual values, and it is possible only in the lee space between political
and religious authority, precariously suspended between Church and State and
entirely accountable to neither. A cabinet level Department of Theology is
anathema to us, a Presidential Commission on the Nature of God a logical
impossibility, yet the absolute absurdity of such specific concepts cannot
quite negate the validity of the intuition that underlies them, that in the
current situation, faced as we are with a threat of mutating magnitude firmly
grounded in a particular understanding of the divine, a countervailing
understanding consistent with the nature of our freedom is essential to our
reason, our sanity, and our defense.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Carl Jung wrote "Consciousness is the cradle of
the birth of God in man." Read as a compressed expression of the notion of
individuation, the unfolding of the soul unto a single, unique self, the
thought points to both process and direction. But the God spoken of here
is largely a concept without content, unrestricted by gender, doctrine, or
dogma, in a sense recognizable only to a single, specific soul. It appears more
as an experiential moment, an epiphany perhaps, the culmination of an arduous
journey of growth, an individual elaboration that at last separates a given
psyche from the undifferentiated roil of a larger antique psyche, the common
inheritance of humanity. Looked at in this light even the agnostic and the
atheist gain full admittance to the discussion. The current situation can be
approached purely psychologically, in a cold scientific frame of mind
essentially devoid of theological content: a vicious god is a pathology.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Teilhard de Chardin admits of a similar reading,
though here the process is more specifically religious, the movement of
consciousness teleological, directed toward the unfolding unto a specific model
of personality, indeed toward a specific personality itself. Still, both Jung
and Chardin --- and, I suspect, a multitude of other psychological and
religious pilgrims of all valid faiths and disciplines --- see the process
fundamentally as the navigation, intimately individual yet immanently communal,
toward a distant and anonymous light, the endpoint of evolution. But for us as
individuals to acknowledge the communality of that navigation we must be
convinced that we move toward the same beacon, however intensely or dimly
perceived. In the individual case contemplation suffices to chart the arc of
the journey; communally only conversation can assure us that we travel in a
single direction. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Individually and communally, whether the language is
of the soul and religious or of the psyche and scientific, all faiths must
confess their sins, all psychologies must confront their illnesses. To contain
the sort of heresy we here detect, the cancer of the psyche we here diagnose,
requires that we begin by sketching the outlines of health, by admitting to an
acceptable understanding of the divine only those attributes of God that propel
us, whether speedily or haltingly, toward the same light. The effort cannot be
limited to our doctors and our theologians alone; that would constitute not a
conversation but an indictment. It must arise as well in the depths of the
Muslim soul and be spoken aloud across the entire ummah. Failure means
metastasis. And metastasis leads by steady and certain steps not toward
evolutionary apotheosis but rather toward apocalyptic calamity.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Let me converse with you and
hear the true voice of your God that you may hear the true voice of Mine.</span></i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"> All hope of tolerance
begins here. It is therefore imperative that we begin. </span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><i>He who has ears to hear let him hear...</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">In sha'Allah.</span></i></div>
<div style="line-height: 14.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.3pt;">
