"What struck me on the beach — and it struck me indeed, so that I staggered as at a blow — was that if the Eternal Principle had rested in that curved thorn I had carried about my neck across so many leagues, then it might rest in anything, and in fact probably did rest in everything, in every thorn on every bush, in every drop of water in the sea. The thorn was a sacred Claw because all thorns were sacred Claws; the sand in my boots was sacred sand because it came from a beach of sacred sand. The cenobites treasured up the relics of the sannyasins because the sannyasins had approached the Pancreator. But everything had approached and even touched the Pancreator, because everything had dropped from his hand. Everything was a relic. All the world was a relic. I drew off my boots, that had traveled with me so far, and threw them into the waves that I might not walk shod on holy ground." - Gene Wolfe, Citadel of the Autarch. 1983. p. 258.

Today on Pop Culture Addressed By Ancient Theologians: Does Free Guy synthesize the tension between will and intellect as the vehicles of ultimate human bliss as seen in Thomistic medieval theology?
#I’m Tired so my thoughts are jumbled but if the Franciscans were like the will ie act of love is the ultimate experience of happiness and#Aquinas was like um actually to will something means something is unfulfilled ie wanting and that’s not perfect#but perfect knowledge can be perfect because people want it for itself therefore intellect gives us happiness in contemplating God#yeah#does free Guy resolve that tension in its world view by going#freedom to choose is only present where love is present as the lens by which we see the world?#wait idk but like#Jody and the parallel world of Guy attain happiness not only when they will for love’s sake but when they see love#like there has to be the willing and eternal/constant/continual humming yes! of the will and the intellectual Knowing/Seeing the Love#idk too big for me#whatever else this is teaching me I’m naturally inclined toward the Franciscans#pov#like I get what St Thomas is saying and he definitely is making points but I’m like nerd. where is the love#and it is there of course but he gets so caught up in the understanding cause he likes to understand! that IS how he loves!#but im like if you haven’t used the word love at least 99 times in your principle statement what even are you#sgjhdsgovc#anyway the answer is it’s both and you can’t split the hairs too fine#but only to understand how they fit together#love is willing (yes!) and seeing (also saying yes!)#so when Pieper was like love is saying it’s good that you exist#it’s the assent to (with the will) and the seeing of (with the intellect)#idk processing processing lots of thoughts

The Eternal Cycle of Sacrifice
Reflections on Life, Death, and NourishmentIn the vast, intricate dance of existence, every being participates in a cycle of giving and receiving that transcends mere survival. This process, a profound expression of the universe’s inherent generosity, manifests as a continuous flow of sacrifice. This concept is not about the literal intention of flora and fauna but rather illustrates the…

i know this is somewhat of a 🤓 take and not targeting anyone specific here but it's always annoying when people talk about "bible fanfiction" or whatever. Like, fanfiction doesn't mean "any work derivative of another work" it refers to a specific social relationship that only exists within the context of modern capitalist ip law. "Fanfiction" cannot and does not exist prior to the existence of IP law- the division between "canon" and "fanworks" is ultimately one of legality, of copyright ownership. Dante's inferno is not "bible fanfiction" because the bible was written over a thousand years before the invention of copyright- the same principle applies to, say, the Arthurian mythos- the social relationship which created a literary cycle through multiple authors over multiple centuries is very alien to the modern copyright-dominated media landscape.

Quote
Everything in our universe, visible and invisible, is originally built from Divine Energy, expanding LOVE power. This manifested itself through two Cosmic Basic forces, two Cosmic laws. Both forces can be found in everything. Everything is essentially energy. Motherhood and Fatherhood. Giving birth and Creation. Expansion and Compaction.
