my own exegesis
As it appears that my friend Shaun (Spencer) will now be leaving regular comments on my blog, I provide the following for my readers…
Exegesis - Critical explanation or analysis, especially of a text.
Misogynous - Of or characterized by a hatred of women.
Untenable - Being such that defense or maintenance is impossible
Depersonalizing - To deprive of individual character or a sense of personal identity
Ecclesiastical - Of or relating to a church, especially as an organized institution
Normative - Of, relating to, or prescribing a norm or standard
Davidic - Of or pertaining to David, the king and psalmist of Israel, or to his family.
Forgive him. He’s in seminary right now and I bought him “word for the day” toilet paper last year for Christmas. However, me thinks I hear the influence of a certain denominational seminary in those comments to which I refer to the film Good Will Hunting for my response.
“Yeah, I read that too. Were you going to plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or do you, is that your thing, you come into a bar, you read some obscure passage, and then pretend, you pawn it off as your own, as your own idea just to impress some girl and embarrass my friend? You see, the sad thing about a guy like you is that in 50 years, you're gonna start doing some thinking on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One: don't do that. And two: you dropped a 150 grand on a (bleeping) education you could have gotten for a dollar fifty in late charges at the public library.”
For those of you who don’t know my friend Shaun, or our relationship, please rest assured that we spent an entire summer playing a game called “skeem and hoot” in which the object was not to win a hand of cards, but to come up with the best line as to HOW you won that hand of cards! : ) I love you man!
