What
would
Hieronymus Bosch
do?
Righteous Indig-Nation
Devil's Details: Orwellian Dickensian and the public good
Among others to be considered for visionary status, A George W. Bush
comes to the fore. He and his apostles, or pundits or court -- whatever
they may be called, are afflicted with the same calling.
The beauty of this risky scheme on which they are embarked is: its
win win.
If through the conviction of a moral code a
laced alchemy of social darwinist real politic, wrapped with evangelical
correctitude, sprinkled with compassionate conservatism, prevails over
the dark forces, who wins? If they lose -- we all, the chosen ones of
course, will pass directly to heaven. If they win, we will be living in
a police state for the foreseeable future. Either way it will be like
heaven on earth.
Is there a difference between, the Orwellian and the Dickensian?

what would El Bosco

Angels / Devils and . . .
One question?
Is George Bush the next Messiah or an avenging angel? If so, who is
Paul Wolfiwitz, Lon Cheney and Donald Stubblefield? Are they linked in
some vast Biblical Conspiracy or are they making it up as they go along?
Sure hope it turns out alright.

What would Hieronymus Bosch do? Why would he do it? El
Boscos painting at one of the stations of the cross depicts
a human mass that does little to differentiate Jesus from
the crowd and what a horde it is. Jesus looks pretty common
without royal trappings but for his cross to bare. No nimbus; nimbuslessness
does level the field . . .
Thaddeus Quella, also nimbusless
