  3. What we really need is for ChatGPT to rewrite the King James Bible in the voice of a TikTok influencer, for a 6th grade reading level, and then for Marvel to make it a graphic novel, which is then adapted into a movie series.

    I’d watch the shit out of that.

  7. Words are vehicles for meaning,
    but each word arriving to your senses
    is filled by the meaning you have to predict,
    and not always filled with the meaning
    that was intended for the words.

  9. #introductions We are a long-term project based in Berlin (Germany).
    Started in 2011, the project edits #Bible #commentaries and other texts by key authors of #LateAntiquity: Eusebius of Caesarea, Cyril of Alexandria, Hesychius of Jerusalem, Procopius of Gaza, Severian of Gabala and Theodoret of Cyrrhus. Their commentaries and sermons are important in the history of #Christianity because of their powerful influence in the medieval and early modern periods, but they are also an intriguing branch of ancient literary #exegesis, and, as such, are of great interest for literary and historical studies, philology and philosophy.
    The editions are published online (and open access) in the Patristic Text Archive (#PTA) and in print in the series "Die griechischen christlichen Schriftsteller (GCS)" (DeGruyter).

  11. finally: the #Exegesis-scraps that litter #VALIS are almost unreadably dull, but i'm tempted to see their undigested presentation as shrewd #mimesis--they make no sense *in a novel* any more than in a mind, so #PKD presents them as cognitive/narrative intrusions, chewing up precious brain-cycles and readerly saccades alike, posing the same problem for readers that they did for Dick during and after 2-3-74.

    he can't go back to being the novelist he was, is part of the point.

  16. What are the good book series of historical-critical biblical commentaries in English?

    Sometimes I need a quick check, and I never know if the commentaries I find on LibGen or SciHub are scientific or evangelical.

  17. CW: Religion

    If the season has inspired you to learn more about #Jesus, I heartily recommend the book How Jesus Became God by Bart D Ehrman. It will help you answer questions like “Where the hell did the fantastical New Testament stories come from?” and “How the hell can we know any facts about Jesus when all we've got is religious propaganda?” It's a great crash course in #exegesis and a compelling, well-argued narrative. The author has a blog and many other books. harpercollins.com/products/how #atheism

  18. 🎄⛪️Today Christians celebrate the birth of (someone who, if they paid attention, they'd note was) an #anarchist: sites.google.com/site/christoy #christmasnotjustforconsumerism #interestingdinnerconversations

    Book weaves together threads of anarchist #exegesis of #Gospel to thereby present as strong & coherent a case why “#Christianity” translates (or should do) to “#anarchism

    Considers #SermonontheMount, but also plenty more NT passages including #DesertTemptations, #TempleCleansing, #arrest, #trial, #crucifixion & #resurrection

    Also covers allegedly #violent NT passages, & of course #RenderUntoCaesar & #Romans13. Also lists plenty of examples of followers of #ChristianAnarchism

    Writers covered include #Tolstoy, #Ellul, #Eller, #Elliott, #Andrews, #CatholicWorkers #Day, #Maurin & #Hennacy, & others including #Garrison, #Berdyaev & #Yoder
