What is it about this simple video by Curtis Childs which has attracted so many positive responses and over 2,000 views on YouTube? Perhaps people have left the age of reading and require video before engaging with interesting ideas. Perhaps the ideas written by Swedenborg are magnetic when presented in an accessible and humorous form? Viewers have said, "Amazing, succinct, powerful!" "This made me THINK and I LOVE that!" "Nice little video. I'd like to see more like this." "As an agnostic I found this very interesting. Well done sir." If you're one of the people who finds this video to be a useful medium for sharing cool ideas, share it on Facebook or pressure Curtis for more. -Editor
This video came to me on an incredibly beautiful day. The sun was low (this time of year that goes on at about 4:30 pm) and the colored light bouncing off everything was so crisp, so vivid—everything just seemed so, real. I was just observing objects: the Bryn Athyn Cathedral, the fields, the silhouettes of trees and, contrary to my normal M.O., I was feeling pretty peaceful and present.
