This is an artist's rendering of the two. They've been on the lamb for over two years. If you've seen them, please notify the authorities. The lamb is getting very tired.
That doesn't work for me. The only way I can make sense of panentheism is to think of it as the logical-grammatical substratum that gives rise to the basic forms of symbolic thought - the hard-coded neurology of human language that doesn't vary from language to language or in different cultural...
