True Detective: Rust's existential musings about religion

submitted by radx

1 decade 3 months 3 weeks ago

"Transference of fear and self-loathing to an authoritarian vessel -- it's catharsis. He absorbs their dread with his narrative. Because of this, he's effective in proportion to the amount of certainty he can project.

Certain linguistic anthropologists think that religion is a language virus that rewrites pathways in the brain, dulls critical thinking."

Once my box gets back from the shop I may have to pay a visit to eztv, this looks pretty good.

Been watching it, really interested in seeing how the two main characters turn out in the end.

Plus the show has boobies.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Really want to start watching this - it's next. Right after new season of Episodes.

"Irrevocable commitment to any religion is not only intellectual suicide; it is positive unfaith because it closes the mind to any new vision of the world. Faith is, above all, open-ness — an act of trust in the unknown.
[…]
"No considerate God would destroy the human mind by making it so rigid and unadaptable as to depend upon one book, the Bible, for all the answers. For the use of words, and thus of a book, is to point beyond themselves to a world of life and experience that is not mere words or even ideas. Just as money is not real, consumable wealth, books are not life. To idolize scriptures is like eating paper currency."

The greatest piece of filmmaking you'll see this week has been added as a related post - related requested by Trancecoach on that post.
