Aphrodite's delicate virtues: friendship, kindness, acceptance, compassion. Have you thought about any of those today?

RIP #JimmyCarter, what an inspiration! Much of *Peace and Society*, one of my *Spiritual Letters*, reflects his political thinking. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DJJ2SY2P

In the infantile discussion between theists and atheists, one basic point they miss is the *nihilistic objection*. Let us assume an agency has the power to create the universe as it is. What would be the point of it? A dialogue from my Spiritual Letters. #philosophy #religion #creationism #nihilism

I love the back covers of best sellers, full of bombastic testimonials: "greatest book ever (The Sun)". As the first pre-publication #reviews about my book appear, I have the pleasure, me too, to share a few distinguished statements. If that doesn't convince you... #books

FRIEND: Spiritual Letters? I'm not much into #religion.
ME: Religion is just the surface. There's enough of all areas of #humanities in the letters. Interdisciplinarity... does that ring a bell? #BookoftheDay
