Increasingly, it is becoming apparent, that words and terms and definitions, which are associated with ideologies or generally human values are becoming devoid of any substantial content. This is happening while at the same time there is an explosion of values and cultural-religious systems being offered at every corner. Today’s virtual realities and forms are moving images devoid of direction and content. Even theology has become a virtual science movable according to fleeting modes of the day. Theology has to rediscover its mystical dimension which is ultimately a dimension of The Holy Spirit and freedom implied meaning that one has the freedom to see beauty and life everywhere and therefore liberate reality, express it substantively, since it is the Creation of God and which is unified to God in a new manner through Christ.
