Horizontal Dualism - A Brief History of Horizontal Dualism

Horizontal dualism is that ever-attractive notion that higher things are cordoned off from lower things. All of earth's most pervasive religions have this structure with the Christian and Islamic Heaven, Hindu and Buddhist Paranirvana. In Augustine's own North Africa, during the 350s, 360s, 370s, and long afterward, every extant ideology was anchored in horizontal dualism.
