you never know, baraka. you never know who you'll run into. there's a secret army of humeans that deploys in publick houses like spiders in traps waiting for people like you to walk in.
personally, i think the most interesting aspect of xtianity is nominalism. if there is some god out there, we can't know, nor can we know anything about it because finite understanding has no access to the infinite, which is an empty category, a hole designated by a word. a consequence of this is that questions concerning what might or might not be Out There become uninteresting. the world around is very big very complex and often quite beautiful. i think about that, and how people make worlds and make their own worlds. what they imagine a god to be as nothing more than an effect of these processes. and of course my positions are nothing more than effects of my own processes. but i like them better.
