How is Late Capitalism a term used by psueds. It's an actual term used far and wide throughout academia. I think you're a fuckin psued you get offended over so many words without context of their use.

I've always thought the whole "Ulysses is incomprehensible" thing was at least half a meme. Then again, I live in Glasgow, which makes all the cultural allusions and city geography a lot more accessible than to most people I guess.

You don't even know the name of the chapter, let alone its significance, and you're telling me it's easy? The only reason you think it's easy is because you have virtually no idea how much information is going over your head right now.

Somebody (I can't remember whether it was an actual critic or just a shitposting anon) said that the Homeric allusions to the odyssey were of tremendous importance to the writing of Ulysses but are of minimal importance to the reading of it.

>Now we can get to the Gospels and their accounts of Jesus’s death. Our earliest Gospel is Mark’s (written about 70 CE — that is, about 40 years after the events it narrates). In Mark, the disciples ask Jesus “Where do you want us to prepare the Passover for us” (Mark 14:12). He gives them their instructions, and so, on this day of “Preparation,” they get everything ready. That evening, after it gets dark, they eat with Jesus the Passover meal. He takes the symbolic bread and breaks it, instilling yet greater symbolism in it: “This is my body.” He takes a cup of wine and instills greater symbolism: “This is my blood of the covenant.” After they finish eating the meal, they go to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prays until the betrayer Judas Iscariot comes with the troops and he is arrested. Jesus spends the night in jail, is put on trial early the next morning, is condemned, and is then crucified at 9:00 am, on the day of Passover, the morning after he had eaten the meal (Mark 15:25). That’s Mark’s version.

>Our final Gospel to be written was John (possibly around 90–95 CE, some 20 years or so after Mark, and about 60–65 years after the death of Jesus). Here, too, Jesus goes to Jerusalem for the Passover. Here, too, he eats a last meal with his disciples (John 13–17). But in this account the disciples never ask Jesus where he wants them to prepare for the Passover meal, and the meal is not described as a Passover meal. Moreover, in John Jesus does not take the Passover foods of bread and cup and instill any new significance in them. It’s just a meal. Afterward, Jesus goes out to pray, he’s arrested, spends the night in jail, is put on trial, and is condemned to be crucified. And we’re told exactly when this took place: “And it was the Day of Preparation for the Passover, about noon” (John 19:14).

>The Day of Preparation for the Passover? How could it be the “Day of Preparation for the Passover”? According to Mark’s Gospel, Jesus lived through that day, had the disciples prepare the Passover, and that night ate the Passover meal, only to be crucified the next morning at 9:00 am (not after noon). What’s going on here?

You don't understand his conception of what philosophy is and what concept-creation entails.

Go back to /r9k/ and /pol/ and stick to your SJW, cuck, Chad, Stacy, roastie, shill, etc. terms

Purity. A 32 year old city college professor evangelizes on Saturdays in San Francisco and teaches Sunday school to adults at a Spanish-speaking Pentecostal church that is mostly Latino. He's slim, dresses well, and slicks his hair. He also sings in the jangly and reverby Christian rock band at his church. He starts dating a white-American woman and over time gets her to attend church with him. The story ends with their getting married.

Bomber. 24 Islamic terrorists strap bombs to themselves and suicide bomb the financial district in San Francisco at the same time. The plot follows the lives of ten different individuals during and after the event.
