Not at all trying to get my hopes up for the election, but it is most certainly significant.<br /><br />I suddenly had a vision of the press as being like Kevin Bacon's character at the end of <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjNppjGtILPAhVFRSYKHT1WAuMQyCkIIDAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DzDAmPIq29ro&usg=AFQjCNFkIVD15geTMJOncmP1JrpYHZ8pRA&sig2=n90IfCwb7saSELip-K69Kw" rel="nofollow">Animal House</a>...juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-26767763818251310692016-09-09T06:38:28.111-07:002016-09-09T06:38:28.111-07:00And not the good kind.

For God is necessary being, whereas we are contingent being. In the face of necessary being, it is as if we are nothing. This nothing is only rendered significant if it somehow shares in the necessary being of God.</i><br /><br />For some reason, the imagery - or rather, imaginery, given that it can't actually be pictured much less seen - of what happens in an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_horizon" rel="nofollow">event horizon</a> comes to mind.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-64242503584080041482016-09-08T13:39:43.771-07:002016-09-08T13:39:43.771-07:00"...

Without the Unity, we are adrift in a sea of multiplicity, of "absolute relativity."<br /><br />Which, oh by the way, the left wishes to impose upon us. In short, it endeavors to codify and inculcate nothing less than compulsory absurdity in the citizenry. A public education simply prepares one for the greater absurdities that will follow with higher education. Public schools soften the battlefield. College kills the remaining inhabitants and salts the earth. The result is a Dead Mind Thinking, such as Obama."<br /><br />So sad, and so true... and once the wailing is over, so encouraging. Such absurdity encodes and ensures its own demise. At some point people will recognize the bloodsucker for what it isn't, and drive a stake through its heartless, and all will be well. Ish.<br /><br />Until, of course, the next too curious fool comes along wondering what that stake is doing stuck in the coffin, pulls it out, and we're off again.<br /><br />Boo!Van Harveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08470413719262297062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-54906396620820940722016-09-08T12:12:58.657-07:002016-09-08T12:12:58.657-07:00"Man is made for what he is able to conceive;...<i>"Man is made for what he is able to conceive; the very ideas of absoluteness and transcendence prove both his spiritual nature and the supra-terrestrial character of his destiny."</i><br /><br />I just wanted to see that again.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.com
