Thanks Greg, there's a lot of "Logos buzzwording" abounding in the zeitgeist atm, and I think it's crucial to challenge these Logoi peddlers to define their terms. Appreciate your work here as always. YOU, Sir, are the best philosophy prof. alive that I am aware of.

Would you say that your fuller explanation of "The Logos" is closer to what John is referring to in John 1:1 rather than just "The Word?" What has come down to us in the KJV seems to me to be an inadequate translation. Would that be a correct assessment? Thanks.

I've often read that in the translated works of Stoic texts, like Discourses, the word "reason" is used as the translation of the word "logos", is that true? If it is, how closely do you think our modern conception of using reason aligns with the ancient meaning behind logos?
