The Quantum Theory of Reincarnation

Last updated on: September 24, 2025 at 8:53 pm By Keith Giles

Let’s talk about reincarnation for a minute. When most people hear the word, they either think of it as a beautiful idea of second chances or as some sort of spiritual recycling program. But, from a Quantum Theology perspective, the whole concept takes on a different shape. First, let’s acknowledge that reincarnation has problems. One of the biggest issues I have with reincarnation is the question of memory. I mean, if you really lived another life, why don’t you remember... Read more

The impure spirits take male and female forms. The masculine spirits unite with the souls in feminine forms. The feminine spirits mate with souls who inhabit the male form. None can be free from these forms unless they receive a power which is both masculine

Why Conservatives and Progressives Both Miss the Point

Last updated on: September 17, 2025 at 7:57 pm By Keith Giles

I’ve noticed something interesting lately: that both conservatives and progressives are both trying – in their own way – to bring people together. Now, if you’re chuckling at that statement, I get it. On the surface, it sure doesn’t look like either side wants anything close to “unity.” But hear me out: beneath all the shouting, the name-calling, the culture wars, and the endless outrage machine, there’s this subconscious pull both sides are feeling. They know we’re supposed to... Read more

Making All Things New?

I know it doesn’t seem like it, but the Universe is always conspiring to draw humanity together. The opposing force that resists this process is our own Animal Instinct – our senses, our tribalism, and our ego. I must confess that, lately, I have fallen asleep and allowed my Animal Instincts to pull me deeper into that process of resisting Oneness. As a result, I have forgotten to focus on building the new and I have fallen back into the... Read more

The Teacher said, “Blessed is the one who exists before existing, for those who are were, and they will be.” The superiority of humanity isn’t revealed, but exists in what’s hidden. So, it (humanity) masters animals that are stronger, that are greater in terms

INNER CIRCLE: The Food of God?

Last updated on: August 22, 2025 at 4:05 pm By Keith Giles

Humanity is the food of God; people offer human or animal sacrifices, but those to whom they sacrifice are not gods. Glass and clay vessels are both made with the help of fire, but glass vessels can be restored because they are shaped by breath.

The apostles before us called (him) “Jesus of Nazareth, the Messiah,” that is, “Jesus the Nazarene Christ.” The last name is “Christ,” the first is “Jesus,” the middle one is “the Nazarene.” Messiah has two meanings: both “Christ (the anointed one)” and “the measured.” Jesus
