		<description>Alll this lucifer worshipping paedophile sacrificial shit is getting me down.

-------

me too bro

----------

You know, I never thought of that beforeâ€¦ about the Demiurge as being a trickster. Like what if itâ€™s all just supposed to be funny, but everybodyâ€™s taking it too goddamned seriously?

------------

The first ttime I read Hypostasis of the archons it totally cracked me

and still does

i mean, its fucking brilliant and hilarious

"Adam where are you" he asked because he did not know

"Then the archns returned to the garden in a great thunder"

like angry parental figures getting outwitted by dennis the menace

they get outwitted and tricked by adam and eve and the serpent at every turn

like the second treatise of seth says "the chief archon was a laughingstock!"

I mean think about it - he was a LAUGHING STOCK

Reread second seth

or the gospel of philip: "When Jesus came out of the water he came out laughing... because he was filled with CONTEMPT!"

LOL, Rise above. 

"Laughter liberates not only from external censorship, but first of all from the great interior censor; it liberates from... fear of the sacred, of prohibitions, of the past, of power... Seriousness had an official tone... It oppressed, frightened, bound, lied and wore the mask of hypocrisy... Thus, distrust of the serious tone and confidence in the trust of laughter [has] a spontaneous, elemental character."

(Mikhail Bakhtin, quoted in THomas Szasz's The Untamed TOngue: A Dissenting Dictionary, p. xii, pub. A.D. 1990)

		<description>Yeah you're right, it does weaken a conversation when everybody's too worried to actually say anything of consequence. It just turns into bland pleasantries and head-nodding. </description>

		<description>Yeah, I mean I don't really get how pedophilia could be a "joke" but maybe a better example would be somebody who watches a Dave Chappelle sketch. The dude says all kinds of racist shit like crazy. And if you get sensitive to that fact, then you'll forget it's actually supposed to be funny. </description>

		<description>this reminds me of that weird "fun rules" guy in waking life.  i mean it seems like that's basically what he's saying.. he's like, hey, guess what, your reality is TOTALLY subjective!  grab a beer, pull up a lawn chair!  develop 360-vision!

i read recently that he died either during the production or shortly after the release of that movie.. it makes me wonder if he wasn't just some kind of weird mystic who decided it would be more fun to fuck around in a less binding dimension.  

on being wrong/judgmental  -- i think both are perfectly healthy.  i don't like people who are constantly dancing around issues and are unwilling to make statements.  it weakens the dialogue.  then again, i COULD BE WRONG.</description>

		<description>You know, I never thought of that before... about the Demiurge as being a trickster. Like what if it's all just supposed to be funny, but everybody's taking it too goddamned seriously? Makes more sense than anything. Like what if theodicy, the "question of evil" is nothing more than that it's funny to see a dude slip on a banana peel and have everybody get all worked up about it?</description>
