“It is foolish to explore materialism for a solution to the essential problem, which, in one guise or another, is always the problem of the existence of God. When an abstraction is involved, thesis and antithesis cannot become synthesis. The universe itself is entirely proof of God’s existence, or else it is a composite of invariable elements; these are the only possible positions, but there are different ways of understanding the meaning of the word ‘God.’ This notion is arrived at either through pure and simple affirmation by posing God as origin, or as a conclusion drawn from a complete analysis of all we know concerning matter.”

“This profound epistemological crisis — which we are experiencing and which can be interpreted parallel to the general revolution, which is moral as well as social and aesthetic — recalls another profound revolution at the end of the Egyptian era and the beginning of the Christian era. What we are able to find out about the history of Ancient Egypt shows us a similar revolution on the eve of the Middle Kingdom, circa 2200-2100 B.C. These three dates (the Egyptian date, the beginning of the Christian era, and our own time) correspond only too well in the revolutionary aspect of the vital nature, to the precessional cycles — Taurus (Montu), Aries (Amun), the end of Pisces (the Christian era), today (in about 150 years) — for this correspondence between the celestial dates and great events on Earth to be pure coincidence.”
