RT @nick_routledge: @serbiaireland No priest, pandit, or mullah sanctions the messianic. No politician, pundit, or scholar gives assent. It arrives without permission—healing, yes, but also riding against the dragon’s throne, the official mythos, the Antichrist consensus, the entire order keeping it all intact.

Copy of tweet here: Is it any wonder then that St. George (or the Eliatic figure of Khezr as he's known in Islam) represents a common, universal, trans-historical, trans-cultural, prophetic prototype, and his dragon-slaying, a liberating, evolutionary turn within total, planetary experience? Jung, again: "We have to discover our shadow. Otherwise we are driven into a world war in order to see what beasts we are." Perhaps the momentous revelation, just now, of the monstrous, wholesale moral destitution of the world's primary polities, denotes just such a recognition? And, ultimately, as dominative, global structures of consciousness and power are claimed by such personalities, the diminution of world culture and society, too. Take Palestine, for example, as major state and media actors cave 'en masse' to a form of systemic moral destitution.

@PageauJonathan 8/ The messianic prototype fuses prophet and trickster—not as opposites, but as overlapping currents of eschatological capacity: truth-teller and frame-breaker, seer and subverter, revealing God’s truth and destabilizing the world’s counterfeit order in a cruciform pattern.
