curiouser, as a concept, as a rule.
i've become more and more curious about what other people write about in seminary.
there is a sort of unspoken rule about papers at mars hill: if you didn't cry over it, don't bother turning it in.
which i guess means that i'm not the only one crying out in frustration, or innocently writing along until the end when it all came crashing down around me in the conclusion because i realized
i thought i was writing about divorces or an underdeveloped pneumatology but i was really writing about the really sad parts of my life and the broken parts of my faith.
goddamnit
so i spend all my seminary office hours at chocolati racking up the free drinks on my punch card and discussing my seminary induced bowel issues with my favorite barista... she called me crabigail and gave me some 'super cleanse' tablets today (she just had a spare bottle under the counter--which is reason #564 'why i lurv molly').
here is the text for today's assignment:
"A concept is a set of inseparable variations that is produced or constructed on a plane of immanence [not just a two dimensional plane as i had thought--which makes the rhizone theory work better for me] insofar as the latter crosscuts the chaotic variability and gives it consistency (reality). A concept is therefore a chaoid state par excellence; it refers back to a chaos rendered consistent... And what would thinking be if it did not constantly confront chaos?" deleuze p 208
