Makrokosmos III
Macrocosm III
Author(s): Roomet Jakapi, Enn KasakSubject(s): Philosophy
Published by: Eesti Kirjandusmuuseum
Summary/Abstract: The scientific and religious thought of the Modern Age had a characteristic chronological pattern to describe the linear macrocosmic time scale. First happened the creation of the World and mankind, and the Fall, followed by the Deluge about two millennia later. The time scale was halved by the Crucifixion and Ascension of Christ, soon followed by the end of the world. What waits for mankind is the eternal bliss in Heaven or torment in Hell. The article discusses what happens to the soul after death and before the Last Judgment. Modern religiosity also influences contemporary understanding of science.
