Even though all these great things developed out of Greek thought and mathematics, the great names of philosophy considered they had failed.
And so they had. Until today. For their philosophic goal was the understanding of the spirit of man and his relationship to the universe. And they could only speculate upon it. They never proved their contention that man was a spirit clothed in flesh, they could only assert it. And so they drowned in the avalanche of superstition which engulfed the world in the Dark Ages.
