Thanks! This is sure going to spoil my up-all-night.
I planned to work on my web tool, but since I cannot follow any one link from a page,
only fetch ALL links from a page, I cannot quit consuming this greylodge website:
stuff I've heard of and never read, stuff I've never heard of but now must read...
I certainly see the randomness in my work, & also see how this fast shuffling of
possibility after possibility might eventually, given enough time, juxtapose &
disclose something important & automatically overlooked in more orderly
thinking[...] Since nothing absolutely nothing is excluded (as not worth being
included) I profer a vast mixed bag - out of it I shake coin-operated doors &
God. It's a fucking circus. I'm like a sharp-eyed crow, spying anything that
twinkles & grabbing it up to add to my heap. Anyone with my attitude just might
stumble onto, by sheer chance & luck - in his actual life, which is to say, the
life of his mind - the authentic camouflaged God, the deus absconditus, by
trying odd combinations of things & places, like a high speed (sic) computer
processing everything, he might outdazzle even a wary God, might catch him by
surprise by poking somewhere unexpectedly. If it is true that the real answers
(& authentic absolute vs the merely seeming) are where we would least expect
them, this "try it all" technique might - might take at face value as true the
most wornout, most worked over & long ago discarded obvious "staring us in the
face all the time" as the crux of the mystery.[...] This kind of fascinated,
creduluos, inventive person might be granted the greatest gift of all. To see
the toymaker who has generated - & is with or within - all his toys. That the
Godhead is a toymaker at all - who could seriously (sic) believe this?[...] Too
dumb to know you don't look for God in the trash of the gutter instead of
Heaven.
