Happiness and rationality are the same. Philosophy and Religion (and Art) have the same Content. There is no absolute contingency. The world is rational. A philosophy of theology is premised to any theology of philosophy. Revelation of glory, manifestation of manifestation as such, not of anything else, fulfils religion, “interpreting spiritual things spiritually”.

5 Cf, Hegel, Encyclopaedia 70: “But it is stupid not to see that the unity of distinct terms or modes is not merely a purely immediate unity, i.e. unity empty and indeterminate, but that - with equal emphasis - the one term is shown to have truth only as mediated through the other; - or, if the phrase be preferred, that either term is only mediated with truth through the other.”
6 Cf. Daniel Gaborró, “Nuestros besos salvan al mundo”, Zero, Madrid, No. 102, pp. 118–120. The “gay” community appears here to want to take over the Messianic role of, say, the proletariat in Marxism. Absurdity or development? Both groups, anyhow, were “despised and rejected of men”, a constant for saviours in our culture, from Jesus to the mythical Frodo. But that things are the opposite of what they at first seem, like dialectic itself, lies at the origin of philosophy as well as of all prophecy.
