Even with the limited evidence I have, I can easily tell that your prose is subpar.

>>8595369
You will not. I'm the one who is sorry, because If anyone is going to do it, then it must be me.

Are you talking about the alleged Pynchon "sightings"?

>Well, more to the point, once you start dabbling in the Arian heresy----and deny the Trinity by denying the essential identity of Father and Son---you have reduced Christianity to exactly what it appears to be in (say) Milton's Paradise Lost: a rather ugly human-sacrifice religion based on worship of a bloodthirsty tyrant.

>This is more or less the point made by Sir William Empson in "Milton's God", but of course Empson was writing from the basic standpoint that the whole God business was ugly anyway. He didn't pause to notice that it's Milton's Arianism---and the basic anti-Trinitarian trend among Protestants generally--that is responsible for the debased form of Christianity that's taken for normative in America.

>Unfortunately arguments for the superiority of Roman Catholicism---which did, I think, hold substantial weight at some point---are undercut at this point by the general trend in America, post-Vatican-II, for Catholicism to seek rather desperately to "assimilate" itself to American Protestantism generally, which has resulted in a bigoted pseudo-Catholicism practiced by the likes of Antonin Scalia or Bill O'Reilly.

>How contemporary American Catholic zealots are part of the same religion that produced Father Damien or Dorothy Day is beyond me. They seem more eager to prove that they can summon a bloodthirsty intolerance equal to that of the heretic Calvin when he burnt Servetus.

you're an idiot, you don't respond in prose on 4chan. context matters - learn to write. it's called being lin-guist-ic-ally perceptive, moron

>you don't respond in prose on 4chan
well, you're not responding in poetry or acsii pictures, so i guess you're not good at 4chan or English.
