    "There's enigmatic dimensions in everything because we are human.... There's no pure-sign language that we can find. We have to tolerate a certain amount of ambiguity, a certain amount of mystery, an enigmatic heart to our language. To our being.
    "Part of the 'cure' is to *embrace* that enigmatic dimension...[which] marks us all and is impossible to abolish."

    "All institutions fail to live up to their ideals."

    --Peter Rollins

    ALL institutions.

    Yes, that one too.

    And that one.

    Mm-hm, that one as well.

    Oh yeah, *especially* that one.

    There are no exceptions. #AllYourFavoritesAreProblematic

    ...who twists Bonhoeffer to prop up calls for Christian nationalist violence.

    Gross. And scary. (Apparently the #BonhoefferMovie is in the same vein. 😬🤢 Watch with eyes open, y'all.)

    So I had to go through my manuscript and either find other sources for the same pieces of info, or cut those particular passages. All because of asshole Metaxas.

    FASCISTS ARE WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS. 😫
    🤬🤬🤬

    "...And then there are those of us with #anxiety and #depression. There are those of us with #ADHD. My feeling anxious and depressed when I consider the state of the universe is a natural and healthy response...."

    Here's what I'd share with Tom at this point if he hadn't blocked me.

    #PeterRollins is a brilliant Irish philosopher and pyrotheologian. I've been following his work for several years now and find it fascinating, revelatory, nuanced, unique, and challenging. I haven't watched this whole vid yet, but the first 30min make it worth sharing:
