It is May 29th, 1453. You are Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror, and you have just taken the city of Constantinople. You’ve been scaring the daylights out of the Christian world for a while now, but now you’ve really gone and done it. Your little jaunt through Asia Minor is causing a bunch of Greek theologians to pull up and run further west into Europe. The Catholic Church already has their hands full with a whole mess of internal conflicts. You wonder how they...

In spirit, we all know Steven Segal. You met him in elementary school, when he told you he has every black belt. You met him in college when you tricked him into smoking a bag of oregano. You met him at Christmas, when he told a racist joke that nobody laughed at.

According to the Neoplatonists, we live in the sensible world. It is composed of all the things we can sense and unde...
