A month ago I made note that I was taking December off from social media (addendum: as of this posting, it's still November where I am, at least) to see whether the continuing conversation around the philosophy of Pandeism, which I have championed the revival of for over a decade, would flourish in my absence or wither.

I honestly don't know. Has my presence truly helped the theological model take hold, or have I simply propped up an arcane idea like Thor lifting the cat's paw from the ground (not knowing it was an illusion cast on the World Serpent)? Or am I holding it back, like the man trying to pull down the wall without realizing that the rope he holds is what holds it up?

A mystery to be put to the test over the next 31 days.

Enjoy your Solstice, and I'll see you in the year 2024!!
