Welcome


Apollonica.org is dedicated to the study of Apollonian spirituality, Enligthened Reason, and related philosophies.

Apollonian spirituality, or Apollonianism, is a modern religion incorporating the principles of science, reason, and skeptical inquire as its very foundation. Rather than requiring a strict adherence to prophetic revelations, rigid dogma, or supernatural causation as most religions do, Apollonianism emphasizes science and reason as the keys to intellectual enlightenment.

Reason, logic, and creativity must be cultivated if we are to progress as a technologically advanced species, while ethical behavior must be driven by the necessity to serve the greatest good and to mitigate suffering. Yet, without some form of spirituality, many of us are left empty and cold. Perhaps human beings simple need something to believe in, and to that end Apollonianism suggests we should believe in the truth of science, in the greatness of the Cosmos, and in the virtues of knowledge, wisdom, reason, moderation, courage, justice, and ethics.
