Walter's Story
Life
High School Lit. Teacher Mrs.McCleod refered to class of '71 as her "IBM Babies"...that was in 1968 just a few months before 2001: A Space Odyssey was released...She was a Beacon of Truth...one of the very few in a tumultous time.
Monophysitism (from the Greek monos meaning 'one, alone' and physis meaning 'nature') is the Christological position that Christ has only one nature, as opposed to the Chalcedonian position which holds that Christ has two natures, one divine and one human. This doctrine and its antithesis, Nestorianism, were both hotly disputed and divisive competing tenets in the maturing Christian traditions during the first half of the fifth century; a tumultous period being the last decades of the Western Empire, and marked by the political shift in all things to a center of gravity now located in the East...Expand for more
ern Roman empire, and particularly in Syria, the Levant, Egypt, and Anatolia, where Monophysitism was popular among the people.
There are two major doctrines that can undisputedly be called Monophysite (IPA: [məˈnɒfəsɪt]):
Eutychianism holds that the human nature of Christ was essentially obliterated by the Divine, "dissolved like a drop of honey in the sea", and therefore Christ only had the one (mono) nature, that of divinity.
Apollinarianism holds that Christ had a human body and human "living principle" but that the Divine Logos had taken the place of the nous, or "thinking principle", analogous but not identical to what might be called a 'mind' in the present day.
