The Amazing Atheist became an argument against atheism
>>18649177One of those hurnsur I don't believe in God or the supernatural while being a fan of the devil and loving everything dark and demonic but I swear it's just ironic.
Remind me, how many pedophile child rapist Catholics are there again? Hundreds of thousands? If this is the alternative, I'll take it.
>>18649182Because no men diddled little boys in the secular LGBT movement?
>>18649182Catholics are the servants of Satan. They worship the Devil, his wife and his son. The devil is proud and vain, he still puts the appearence of holiness.
>>18649178>loving everything dark and demonic"For the Neoplatonist the whole purpose of signs is to allow the intellect to pass through them to become one with that which they represent. This "passing through" is what Pseudo-Dionysius means by apophasis, the negating of the similitudes of signs so as to discover, first, their superior dissimilitude and, finally, the need for the transcendence of both likeness and difference. This is also the goal of interpretation.""Denys asserts that the fullest kind of understanding is symbolic knowledge, which he distinguishes from analytic, logical knowledge. What can be known is the degree of dissimilitude and difference between the sign and that which it signifies. Thus there is a preference for symbolism because it calls attention to its relationship with its referent, unlike logic, which encourages certitude about the bond between the object of knowledge and the discourse about it.""the symbolism of dissimilitude, and it is anchored in incongruity. Such symbolism grapples with the limitations of representation by showing what is not, by sundering the sign and the signified, and by deforming the very form that contains the subject. In a passage important for his theory of the deformed, Denys uses the Biblical examples of descriptions of God as a worm: "Add to this what seems the lowliest and most incongruous [image] of all, for the experts in things divine gave him the form of a worm" (CH 145A); and as a drunkard: "He is represented as someone drinking, as inebriated, as sleeping, as someone hung over (*Letter Nine* 1105B); "He is said to be drank and hung over" (MT 1033B). Denys explains that he is attracted to such figures precisely because they are sufficiently transgressive as to automatically negate their content"
>>18649178>>18649208"As late as the seventeenth century the Spanish theologian Balthasar Gracian (1601-55) states the concept bluntly: "Paradoxes are the monsters of truth"!""Inadequacy, paradox, and reversal are the hallmark of the poetics of deformation, a poetics that has its conceptual beginnings in the negative methodology of Pseudo-Dionysius and the Neoplatonists and its continuation in the art and thought of mediaeval poets and mystics. Examples of this aesthetic are found early in the mediaeval period: the eighth century *Book of Kells* and other early Celtic manuscripts feature monstrous forms in their illuminations; the ninth century Winchester Psalter reveals capitals constructed of grotesque grylles; Rabanus Maurus' *Encyclopedia* created at Montecassino in the early eleventh century pictures the monstrous races in striking illustrations. These and many more examples attest to the lively presence of monstrous form in the thought and expression of the early Middle Ages."

Why do all computer Linux nerd phenotypes end up trooning out?
>>18649244Now, unlike the OP, this is a genuinely interesting question. These people tend to be higher IQ than the norm. Higher IQ people tend to be very neurotic in many cases and so do troons. I think it is an association between open source software, troon ideology, and excessive neuroticism.

>>18649244A combination of being terminally online and having fewer real world connections makes them ripe for online groomers.“You’re sad and anxious? Just troon out it’ll make you happier and you’ll get an instant friend group!”

>>18649178Ok, this is just funny. Are you a Christian for real? Because I know what the true Christian religion is (was/were), and you're probably not on it. Seems to me you wanna talk tough and win internet fights. Cute. In any case, do you practice the meditation specific to Christian qabalah, the rituals and all that? Do you contact with Jesus and the angels? Do you have visions where you're taught real doctrine? No, you don't, yet you make lots of noise. What a brat. And for the record: I am an abomination before your god, a demin, nit even a Christian one, I can zap you if you want...

>>18649465Tons of Youtubers in general troon. Most recent one I saw was this guy I subbed to like a decade ago for a Michael Rosen YTP and just got this video recommended of him coming out as a trans brony. I think this is like the 4th YTPer I've seen troon.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddl_R-i3tRA
>>18649244Because obsessing over obscure operating systems is retarded.
>>18649177I haven't seen him in like 10 years. Looks completely different. Lost weight, shaved and dyed his hair? I would say congrats but I think I'd rather be a fat neckbeard than a troon.
>>18649177I don’t know who this troon is but he sounds Bananas!
it's bait you retardsalso fuck off with your eceleb threads, you're spiritually a tranny already

>>18649177I've joked before that he's the man who built and destroyed internet atheism. The internet definitely broke his brain, in an earlier time he would have joined some weirdo cult or something but now he's so mind-rotted, porn-brained, internet raped that he's done for. The only thing that might cure his mental disorders is a minimum one year with no internet but he'll never do that.

>>18649177This is just what happens when you deny reality.
>>18649244They fall behind the herd in some way and are made into an easy meal by predatory people. Almost universally in those autistic troon cases there is someone behind the scenes that at the very least plants the idea in their head, however subtly or obviously they go about it depends on each case.
