However, his writings I also found to be some of the most creatively inspired writings that I have read to date. Interesting stuff.
Creative to say the least. Swedenborg traveled freely to hell and heaven , drew elaborate and detailed sketches of the landscapes, described the genitalia of the angels. He talked to alien spirits from the known planets in our solar system. All this from a man that was on the verge of discovering the role of the neuron in the brain until he abandoned science to go peeking up angels dresses.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
