Civic = Greece, Prophetic = Israel?
#6
Good match to the original post with the Alan Watts video. I like that Watts says that science is prophecy. The ceramic and the mechanical are two worldviews both seeking explanatory power. Now the Greeks did have their prophetic idealists - Plato, Pythagoras - though they may not have been ceramicists. And the Israelites had their civic heroes - Moses led the people to the promised land but Joshua conquered it.
