Dear Bob Price, You reference this article on Steve Jobs (as seen by John Sculley). I have finally finished reading it to the end. It is one of those rare experiences which makes me want to say [and I used to do this to my friends when I was much younger]: *You don't know anything really [in this case, about SJ] until you read THIS*. Best extra on FFL ever. Steve Jobs was a Mozart. There is nothing going on in the 'spiritual' realm, the religious realm, which is as real and beautiful as the products SJ produced at Appleand the context of design within which he functioned and lived, that too (this context) is closer to reality than any Eastern wisdom could ever be. Imagine approaching *life* the way Steve Jobs approached Apple. But you see, Steve Jobs got the grace to do what he did at Apple, whereas there really isn't any grace anymore to know God, to know reality, to become a saint. Steve Jobs, as a CEO was a saintin this sense: he acted within an intention which was pure, uncompromising, beautiful, and real. Instead of making himself beautiful, he made technology beautiful. There is no one, in relationship to life, in relationship to themselves, that can produce spiritually what Steve Jobs produced at the level of design and engineering. Saint Ignatius of Loyola was the very sameonly he worked in the realm of self-design in relationship to his Creator. His "Spiritual Exercises" although utterly irrelevant now, were once (before Monte Cassino) better than the Iphone, Ipad, and the MacBook Pro all taken together. They WORKED.
