#Exegesis
Oh that sounds just fascinating! But yes, exactly. There's a lot of "congregational exegesis" waiting behind the liturgical quirks of a place.

left-field maybe but the very idea of this being discrimination against him as a -christian- gets far too deep into the courts taking a position on religious exegesis for me.

homo=sin is the belief.

what if we could prove in court that actually they meant something else in the bible. what then

Recently dove into Embodied Exegesis: Transfeminine Cyberpunk Futures, which is an incredible anthology so far.

Well said. This was my experience of the book too. drb.ie/article/when...
When More is Less - Dublin Review of Books
This colossal volume of Heaney’s poems ‘almost disguises the fact that he is a poet by entombing his lyric in a mass of annotation, exegesis and “uncollected” poems’.

Morbidly hilarious stupidity and ignorance. Anyone who has any shred of intelligence and critical thinking and has actually taken a biblical exegesis class knows how much bull shit this is...

@beijingpalmer.bsky.social has done EXTENSIVE exegesis on Bombadil's English roots, heh. Won't make him type it all again.

"There's no way point-defence cannons are the best solution here. A complement of lasers would be far less trouble."

A Talus shuttle came to a careful stop in the narrow hexagonal chute. The parrot relay drones flew from the cargo hold. The swarm split into 6 groups, filing through holes on each wall.

A heavily modified freighter screamed through the canyon. What were previously bays for containers, now held 8 shuttles, their mission requiring a full load of reaction mass.

I'm interested in systems and belonging, and Douglas has a take on "dirt" that I dig 🤓

Also, her exegesis on Leviticus' classifications of animals is 🫠

exegesis…

🎯. The issue is “We don’t want to do these things (lawbreaking, societal norms, etc). Give us proposals for how to stop that. Report back.”

These people are just masturbating.

We don’t need a big philosophical exegesis to decide activities and behaviors that are undesirable for the machine.
there are lots of plausible AI risks, I don't think any of them involve emergent machine gods, and the superintelligence bullshit mostly avoids talking about regulation and handling of the real problems.

Four days ago, picking up Embodied Exegesis: Transfeminine Cyberpunk Futures out of @neonhemlock.bsky.social from a local Oakland shop in my neighborhood!

timmy turner "i hope everyone who dies goes to hell no matter what" and pariston hill "i feel happiness when people hate me..." together form an embarrassingly complete exegesis of what one could generously call my "personality"

I took out my exegesis on it in the end, but I saw it creep up in the album artwork for the MPTL Microplastics LP. You can see it underneath the crucified policeman. The article became an occult, theological & economic history of microplastics if interested: urblindspot.substack.com/p/mptl-micro...

Excellent (long) exegesis
Spent yesterday working on a detailed critique of some of the "methods" that Joseph Henrich used in his recently released report attacking sociocultural anthropology. He was the sole anthropologist involved with the Vanderbilt Report. It's long, but the more I looked the more issues I noticed.

Recent main character Nathan Cofnas's favorite example of Ashkenazi Jewish socioeconomic success is much better explained by the cultural inheritance of the ghetto/stetl--where no one could own weapons or land, and social status among men became a matter of the best Torah exegesis--than by IQ

I've not heard this song because I only listen to the kind of music that people describe as "Disney metal." y'all are welcome to do exegesis on that or accept that people have different tastes, up to y'all

Mhm, I fully agree with all that you said! But I find that when you see someone else attempt to explain the elusive, lyrical subject of poem, even if you don't quite agree with it, you might then find it easier to do your own "exegesis"
September 26, 2026 at 6:51 PM
whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. Just to make sure that I'm hearing you rightly, are you essentially saying that you have arrived at a fully affirming theology and exegesis of scripture, but that you find the Hays' particular way of getting there to be unpersuasive and faulty?

Imagine if a book says "The faggots are an abomination" then the queer friendly exegesis would be like "faggots doesn't necessarily mean the gays. sometimes it is used to describe a bundle of sticks."
e.g. many people reason as so with alcohol consumption too". My main problem with this proposal is that exegesis only shrouds the glaring bigotry of the respective holy books with sophistric exegesis. In no way sophistric exegesis would solve the fact that being queer is a SIN.
