The Gods are not a symbol for natural phenomena, such as lightning and earthquakes. The natural world is a symbol for the Gods.

Nothing is more real than the Gods, and certainly not the gross material we perceieve.

Modern academia has built its theory of progression on shakey grounds. We are supposed to believe that the ancients, masters of advanced mathematics, builders of monuments we would find impossible today, and philosophers, were childlike in the face of natural phenomena.

It is not ancient superstition that the Gods reflect, but unconditioned cosmic awareness.

C.S Lewis on the problem of the conformist midwit:

“Why you fool, it's the educated reader who CAN be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they're all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the high-brow weeklies, don't need reconditioning. They're all right already. They'll believe anything.”
