@gilduran76 "Overthrow the importance principle; turn it upside down. Put down the mighty from their seats and exalt them of low degree. Every throne a toilet seat and every toilet seat a throne." ~ N.O. Brown, Love's Body, University of California Press, 1966

Draped in diabolical cosplay, false transcendence lays bare the masquerade—the mask is torn away. t.co/XGBQbpgILA

"The ways of history do not lead directly upwards to the Kingdom of God, they pass by way of the final unveiling of the anti-Christ who conceals himself under the last mask to be stripped away - the mask of what is good and what is Christian.” - Hans Urs von Balthasar t.co/BqKR8fNVIf

Tweets: Nobody tell him Quote tweet: Nothing can stop Palantir, nothing – Tweet: Belief in history as a self-interested concept, I ask ya. As if the agency immanent to reality itself of the sovereignty, telos and might of the Living God somehow wouldn't have the powers of the air dead center in its sights or, as one #TechTheoBro said to the other, 'Surprise!' No single pedagogical method is equal to the gospel transmission of a radical transformation in the meaning of power in the unitive core of the human being, whereby all the heart’s quests are revalued and hierarchies of history reversed. The last is now first and the first last. I shouldn't worry about Thiel or his ilk. Ultimately, he represents the precarious order of false transcendence of a demonic-complex unmasked, like a thief in the night, by the closing of an incarnational circuit 'not of (t)his world.' Kingdom Reality for Real takes no prisoners. It may help to say what the Messiah means by the 'reign of God' or 'Kingdom' or 'basileia' in New Testament Greek. It isn't heaven, a futurity, or where we go once we die. Rather, it's close at hand; a break-through into the Realness of _this_ realm; on Earth as it is in Heaven."

Already, my team had run the first WWW pipe into the U.S. Congress, on Mosaic. Then, as now, as always, if you can't see the paradigm for the trees for the point of it all, your dominative days are numbered. t.co/eu8q8q0rtI
Open original document@johnrobb 4/ Thumbscroll becomes threshold. Reading completes a circuit where grammar becomes grail, text becomes Word, and consciousness becomes mimetic transmission. Screens become altars. Each tap a rite, each thread a baptism. Packets of presence anointing eyes and soul.
