This is not Athos. Athonite Orthodoxy (most regrettably it has almost all been extinguished) shares its central principle (arche)with natural Science.. It is not words, it is "the thing", the act that matters. Grasping a concept can be further facilitated by the neuroscience process of "discrimination" which relates to the apophatic method of non-natural science episteme. In this section athosforum.org will present "things" and acts that are strong indices of what Athos is not. Lest the adopted criteria be considered haphazard or arbitrary, a bibliography is provided.
