Nothing like homemade red lentil soup, crusty bread from the bakery, and Spire for dinner.

I came upon this passage in that Greek gods book:

"It is worthy of the most ingenous and creative of humankind that in the period of their greatest religious inspiration they resolved to recognize and worship the divine not in absolute power, wisdom, or will, but in the primal forms of reality; thus their religion exhibits the same evidence for the unity of nature and spirit as does their plastic art. [...]Such views of the divine the modern philosphers of religion refuse to recognize."
