R.J. is a doll. This book is getting a bit dry though...

Nothing like a bandwagon.

Delightful and confusing.

“‘Father!’ cries the Heart in its vertiginous plunge, ‘into your hands—which I do not feel, which opened to let me fall, which will catch me at the bottom of the abyss—into your hands I entrust my Spirit. Into your hands I breath out my Spirit. My Holy Spirit.’
The Heart became Spirit, and from the travails of the Spirit the new world was born.”

“Universal and objective moral systems treating the world as generic facticity, even those beginning from ‘creation’ without explicitly Christocentric and Trinitarian foundations, adhere to the mythos perpetrated on the Church by Enlightenment Liberalism. Turning to nature as a static, a-historical given denies the dynamics of Christian history and uses the Egyptian spoils to build the golden calf.”

“One day, chatting with his friend Janouch, Kafka said: 'What, then, is sin? We know the word, but we have lost the feeling for it and the real understanding of it. And that, perhaps, is damnation, dereliction, the absurd.' If sin is not sin, then who will set us free from it? And what meaning can be given to the revelation of Mercy?”

This is amazing.
