Plotinus (3rd century BC) believed in the existence of a Transcendental One, the ultimate source of all reality, beyond human comprehension. To reach a state of mystical union with it, one must undergo a process of recursion and purification from side-effects.
“The Transcendental One is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors. What’s the problem?” said functional programmer Ellis P. Max.
