What do you think of Simone Weil's Christianity?
>>24971883Very Platonic. A bit too much in some areas.
>>24971897Christianity is already Platonic on its own
>>24971920not always
i genuinely have no clue why people think the europeanisation of christianity is something negative for christianity - it's like, do they not realise that christianity itself was already full of foreign cultural influence even in the days of the early christians? where do people think jews so many of their stories from?
>>24971924>where do people think jews got* so many
i disagree with her on a lot of particular points but i consider her a genius and i admire her faith. she's the kind of person modern Christianity desperately needs and doesn't have.
I LOVE SIMONE WEIL
>>24971939Basado
>>24971883Is this that guy who wrote Chaos?
>>24971964What's with this post? She's a thinker, not a celebrity. You're not supposed to be passionate let alone being hysterical about thinkers.
>>24971883she kinda cute
>>24971883I mostly think of her hairy dork cooch
>>24971883an invention made by catholics to downplay the paganism of her thought
>>24971883She looks like the kind of girl who would rim my arsehole.
>>24971883She's extremely clever, intellectually honest, with a slight poetical tendency, so she became my entry point in christianity, despite me trying to get into it for a long time.I'm not christian nor anything, but she was the first to show me, and maybe make me feel, the beauties of this particular faith.Emotionnally and intellectually, I found her works the easiest stepping stone into christianity for non-believiers, but maybe it just clicked for my particular mind at this particular moment.My second important author, and I mention it since it felt a bit the same.way to me, was Jacques Ellul. "The subversion of christianity" was enlightening and made me more confident in christianity, like Weil, and unlike more classical authors.Weil is a non-baptized catholic, Ellul is a protestant, but I found the truths they were trying to express and convey were close, and had in common their detachment from the organized, socially ruling religion christianity has become.
Literally who?
