“A society that has no sense of the sacred is one in which you’ll have a lot of anomie, normlessness, loneliness, hopelessness.”
Jamie Wheal, Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex, and Death in a World That's Lost its Mind

“There are moments that stand out from the chaos of everyday as shining beacons,” University of Chicago professor Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi writes. “In many ways, one might say that the whole effort of humankind through millennia of history has been to capture these fleeting moments of fulfillment and make them a part of everyday existence”
Jamie Wheal, Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex, and Death in a World That's Lost its Mind

“Back in the age of empires, pharaohs built pyramids and kings constructed castles, enshrining their divine right to rule. In the medieval era, monasteries and cathedrals loomed large across Europe, reflecting the power of the Church. With the emergence of the nation-state in the eighteenth century, capitols and courthouses took center stage in urban plans and skylines. By the twentieth century and the age of corporations, skyscrapers towered above everything—monuments to the barons and banks that built them. Today, silicon campuses designed by celebrity architects claim the spotlight. Power has now been harnessed in the physical world by those who invented our virtual ones.”
