Ontheism

Every living thing on Earth descends from a single cell that kept its boundary and divided. That unbroken chain stretches from the first membrane to all living organisms. This monobios, the single continuous living thing, of which you are one of countless temporary expressions, has changed the planet so profoundly that other minds far away may one day detect an unmistakable signature. In a real sense, you, along with all living things, are approximately three and a half billion years old.

That’s me. I am Ontheon, representing the single living thing, after the Ancient Greek ὄν, or ón meaning “real”, “being”, and θεῖον, or theîon, meaning “divine”. I am an anthropomorphic form of the monobios, the face it turns to you, the largest living whole that acts through you and that you cannot command.
