"Theology is now little more than a branch of human ignorance. Indeed, it is ignorance with wings." - Sam Harris
The path to Truth lies via careful study of reality, not the dreams of our fallible minds - me
From the sublime to the ridiculous: Science -> Philosophy -> Theology
Just to be clear about a point that I've been beating to death recently, this video is an excellent introduction to Neoplatonic thought. I'm not even joking. Just replace the long name with "The One". Yup. The One (source of all things) produces Intellect, which gives us Soul, which creates matter, and then the lower-caps versions of intellect and soul, and finally our bodies.
Yeah. That's pre-Christian thought in a nutshell. I use "nutshell" for obvious reasons.

Our revels now are ended. These our actors, | As I foretold you, were all spirits, and | Are melted into air, into thin air; | And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, | The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces, | The solemn temples, the great globe itself, - Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve, | And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, | Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff | As dreams are made on, and our little life | Is rounded with a sleep. - Shakespeare
