Dane Zammit — Essays for an Unraveling World

Reflections on faith, reason, and renewal of the soul

Our age is one of confusion — where faith is forgotten, reason is fractured, and the soul is lost in noise.

These essays seek a path through the ruins: to understand how truth collapses, how meaning is distorted, and how grace restores what intellect alone cannot.

They are not sermons or theories, but meditations written from the edge — on doubt and desire, judgment and mercy, and the return of wisdom to a world unmoored from God.

About Dane

Essays at the intersection of faith, reason, and the fractured modern soul

I’m Dane Zammit, a writer exploring how identity, meaning, and culture unravel — and how faith and reason might renew them.

Raised Catholic but drawn away by doubt and restless seeking, I turned to science, philosophy, and depth psychology for answers. Yet the further I searched, the clearer it became that the mind alone cannot heal what is spiritual in nature.

Through failure and grace, I came to see that truth is not merely an idea to be grasped, but I Person to be met. Now I write at the intersection of theology, depth psychology, cultural critique, and esoteric mysticism, tracing how knowledge that does not come from God distorts the soul, and how divine intervention restores it.

These essays are not academic treatises, but spiritual reflections — invitations to resist confusion, recover clarity, and walk the narrow path that heals both mind and heart.

Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers, and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you will be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry.

(2 Timothy:2-5)
