"What, indeed, is the meaning of the death of God, if not a strange solidarity between the stunning realization of his nonexistence and the act that kills him? But what does it mean to kill God if he does not exist, to kill God who has never existed?Perhaps it means to kill God both because he does not exist and to guarantee he will not exist - certainly a cause for laughter: to kill God to liberate life from this existence that limits it, but also to bring it back to those limits that are annulled by this limitless existence - as a sacrifice; to kill God to return him to this nothingness he is and to manifest his existence at the center of a light that blazes like a presence - for the ecstasy; to kill God in order to lose language in a deafening night and because this wound must make him bleed..." (Preface to Transgression)
Pretty, eh? Imagine what that would have sounded like in the original French. Whoops, did I just say a bad word? Here it is again, French!!! Idiotic politicos, I fart in your general direction! Now go away before I taunt you a second time!
On the homefront, I am no closer to determining my post graduation fate than I was last year. When everything is a possibility, nothing gets decided..multiplicity might be theoretically fun but in practice it is a biatch.....grrrrr...
