In my mind, we are all connected but the question remains as to
whether there is a "GOD" beyond that which I think of as the conscious
universe which created all that is and directs the play in which we all
act out our parts or if there is no play, no director, merely a
dreamer passing thru a solitary eternity and that the ultimate reality
is merely the sum of all choices, all events all dimensions and dreams
that the conscious universe is aware of it all though we are only able
to see thru the limited foci of time and space and material reality.Engaged: Conference: inkwell.vue, Topic 220: "In my mind, we are all connected but the question remains as to whether there is a 'GOD' beyond that which I think of as the conscious universe which created all that is and directs the"

Leo Strauss was born in Germany in 1899 and studied philosophy, natural science, and mathematics there, where he attended courses taught by Husserl and Heidegger. Strauss worked as a researcher for Jewish studies in Berlin, then in 1932 left Germany and eventually came to the United States. He taught at the new School for Social Research from 1938-1949, then at the University of Chicago from 1949 to 1967, Claremont Men's College in 1968-69, and St. John's College until his death in 1973. Leo Strauss was the Robert Maynard Hutchins Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus in Political Science at the University of Chicago. Strauss's extraordinary influence as a teacher has been demonstrated by his many students who have succeeded him in the field of political philosophy.Straussian.net
