The eschaton isn’t when suffering finally makes sense but when Christ’s victory over Nothingness is fully revealed. Barth refuses deferred theodicy: das Nichtige has no hidden rationale. Hope rests not in future understanding but in a present triumph that will be consummated.

Gen Z chuds are some of the most pathetic trash in history, but—it has to be said that they really cooked with “jestermaxxing”, a genuine breakthrough for culture and the English language

God’s covenant act in Christ has objective priority, and in kerygmatic proclamation that objective act becomes an existential address that places the hearer under claim and summons decision by provoking crisis. Crisis is experienced as subjective participation in the covenant.

Against the Dignity of Negation
Karl Barth, Das Nichtige, and Anselm Kiefer’s "Sulamith"
“The painting’s inscription resists [redescribing evil as a necessity] by refusing to let the Nazi hall remain an anonymous sublime. It insists that the space is a space of victims, and that the victim can be named.”

Confessing the Event
A Catechism of Divine Actuality
“Divine being occurs as freedom, as the event in which love determines itself to be the ground of all things. The divine life is a history that takes place eternally, a self-movement in which God wills to be God with and for creation.”

Every time I get worked up about work, I now tell myself
+ This is just a job
+ Which doesn't say anything about my value as a human
+ It will not leave a mark on history
+ So cash the cheque, clock out, and relax.

Don’t think I’ve ever heard a Republican insist that their base commit to nonviolence. All I remember is them cheering anti-abortion terrorists, people who talked about “2nd amendment solutions” and sovereign citizens. This culminated in Jan. 6 and they have created a bespoke reality to justify it
