Heee, thank you! :) Also, with reference to that icon, I TOTALLY JUST SAW THAT MOVIE. (A DECADE LATE, I KNOW--BUT DON'T WORRY I ALSO JUST SAW SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, 20 YEARS LATE.) But I loved it!
I have no idea about any of the content except Lazarus rising from the dead but hot damn that's an attractive outline. Also I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one who carries on chatty commentary in the margins of their own work. (ALso I miss you heyyyy don't get crushed under the peine forte et dure of finals.)
My first reaction to this was amusement because walls of text on theology and eschatology tend to have that effect on me and then I started reading it and holy shit that is interesting stuff and I did not know any of it so yes please continue to talk about the theological deconstruction of the gospels all you like because I've got twenty years of Sunday school and Bible studies behind me and I could probably recite the story verse by verse but hearing it from a totally new perspective is amazing so yes
also hi how've you been besides lazarus and mountain goats
literally do not get this ball rolling I will emerge from the library laden with commentaries and crying because John hates Peter and turns him into a golden retriever who takes Jesus's metaphors literally* and because Matthew is such a rabbi and takes prophesy so seriously he has Jesus ride two animals at once to make it fit and Mark overuses "immediately" and Luke sugarcoats all the things and has the disciples be joyful in their doubt which is hilarious
