Jeff Stilwell (born June 21, 1967) is a humanist thinker and illustrator. His ''Thrashin' Jack'' comics are published on social media by the Fullness Circles Foundation. ==Background== Stilwell was born in the Midwest and went searching for God at the age of ten on his paper route.〔Jeff Stilwell; ("A Pebble In My Shoe" ); Eastern Washington University; May 8, 2014〕 While he didn't find God there, his search continued throughout the next decades. His search included attending and studying several different denominations of Christianity, then classical Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Next he lived in Asia for a number of years to observe those belief systems in action. He claims an influence by the Chan master Huineng, Taoist storyteller Zhuangzi, and Confucian thinker Mengtzu.〔 Returning to the United States, he attended seminary at Seattle University's School of Theology and Ministry, focusing heavily on the writings of thinkers such as Augustine, Anselm, Thomas Aquinas, and Karl Rahner. He earned a Master's in Pastoral Studies but did not pursue ministry because he felt that he "was helping no one."〔 After seminary, he pursued studies in Hinduism, particularly the writings of Adi Shankara and the Bhagavad Gita. He also studied Islam, particularly the thoughts of Sufi poet Rabia Basri.〔
