Re: Malpertuis

Apologies. I don't post here that often anymore, or anywhere for that matter. The plague year is slowing everything down to a crawl when not hysterically speeding things up. Hope everyone's doing...

Re: Homage Volumes You Would Like to See

Re: Arthur Machen

Her webcomic doesn't look bad either.

Incidentally, Robert, i do believe you are one of the few to own a copy of that sequel to TWP that i did a few years back, aren't you? Didn't name it as such...

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Well, that makes sense & i certainly would not disagree.

Worship and prayer, in a way, are highly stylized & compressed ways of keeping the event ongoing.

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Ha ha. I am interested in whether or not it's true. I'm fairly sure, given our different positions on how best to seek truth, that I care more about what's true than you do.[/QUOTE]

The reason i joined TLO was for the tangents. I love weird fiction but let's admit it, at the end of the day Jesus is more interesting than HPL.

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Let me try to phrase my bafflement concisely: how is the problem of the One-and-Many solved by positing, between the One and the many, the bridge of many-in-One? Which together makes ...five?

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Hey James, allow me to ramble on a bit here.

The very thing that i think all of Aquinas's 'convoluted reasoning' succesfully points out, is that 'rationalist' objections to theism fall short of...

Re: Interview on theology and horror

Re: Interview on theology and horror

A common misconception ( even among the religious ) is, to my mind, the idea that holy scripture provides proof of its own truth. It would frankly be weak logic to claim it did. If anything, it...

Re: Thoughts on being a writer on Greydogtales

One could substitute a lot of things for ‘writing’ ( as a way to worship the ego) in that last sentence, and the claim would hold. Parenthood, ‘holding down a job,’religion, atheism and a great many...
