I suppose it could look that way to someone who knew nothing about the theory and practices of Plotinus and Proclus, or of Neo-platonic Christians like Pseudo-Dionysius and Augustine.
"Tis only the brilliance of light hiddeth thee." From the hymn, Immortal, Invisible.
Pairs nicely with...
"when you stare into the abyss too long, the abyss stares back at you." Paraphrase of Nietzsche.
...and it is this mystical approach that puts me at odds with most evangelicals and atheists who think all Christians are evangelicals.
