@PraetorPatrick I think there will be 2 narratives ( both working for WWF).

1 it's Nephilim and we must create a strong religious culture to defend against occultism.

2 Narrative 1 is a psyop to create a religious right totalitarian state.

Total speculation here. We'll see.

@clrk_o @laethcore Yea Barfield was definitely influential in the writing of Perelandra in particular

@Parthenogenics Related, St. Irenaeus claims that Adam and Eve were created as children in the garden but the view was later rejected by St. Ephraim as being “pagan”

[owen cyclops @owenbroadcast]

i’d like to discuss christian and mormon orientations toward knowledge.

for a variety of reasons, mormon theology has been a large topic on X recently. this is one of my main areas of interest, but its difficult to briefly hop into.

so, i really enjoyed reading perelandra:

@apophaticism A very strong view of God’s providence makes sense coming from Paul given his conversion experience. Extreme Calvinist theology seems to reduce salvation to this element of providence rather than seeing it as part of the whole of salve-ation

@DallasBHartmann The runes the Norse letters, so the idea is that he is partially blinded by the techne of writing

[Sympractical @sympractical]

After a while, Odin decided he didn’t care for the runes so much, so he tried to return them and get his eye back. He was surprised to find there was a strict no return policy and he had thrown away the receipt anyways.

“In the infancy of society every author is necessarily a poet, because language itself is poetry… Every original language near to its source is itself the chaos of a cyclic poem”

- Shelley
(quoted by Barfield in Poetic Diction)

[milton @miltonappl3]

Poetry isn't a genre at all, but was the default language we spoke before the flood.

@laethcore Groaning and speaking in unknown tongues are both options per Paul

If you want to construct a "city" you have to have access to a dream, if you want to get access to a dream you have to construct a "city". This is (the) technical reality.

@silasfox144 @playoff_c @PetesHair @iskesnadrog @markocms @MStraniu @ZealousSeraphim The real solution is to "wash your feet" periodically so that the anomalies (the dirt) does not accumulate to cause bigger problems.

This is basically what Ruth brings to the table. This power to "renew the feet" before it's completely too late. Related to Levirate marriage too

Many names in the Bible are hyperlinks and if you double click on them, they take you to a seemingly irrelevant story that reveals a new layer to the passage.
