Manger Beetles

[Markekohut]

But god as reified Nature makes all the beetles......

But this wonderful connection to the beetles in GR ties in, perhaps, P's lifelong use of the trope....
Mocks "savior" with beetles in GR; mocks Transsubstantiation itself in Against the Day....
Yet, open-meaning genius, his image leaves what we might call transcendent mystery
Within Nature.....
In My Unhumble Bloviating....

At any rate, I prefer Frank's luminescent beetles to the manger variety- less at the mercy of a collicky god.
