[Serious] The Humanities

[possibletarian]

It's a variation on the theme of necessity that dominated christian thinking at the apoapsis of christian hegemony.  If a person has a specific preference for the set of fantasies that arose in that period, then they will have had it expounded to them a great many times in a great many ways over a great many subjects by the intelligentsia of the era.

It was never true, but it was truly believed, and so... it found it's way into the humanities.  With the benefit of hindsight and a deeper appreciation of the breadth and potential of human narrative skill - it seems impossible to maintain.

Ah i get it, i was looking at the statement in a rather isolated way I suspect. I'll do a little more reading on the subject when i have the time.

I suspect Islam makes similar claims, as maybe do other religions.
