The World of

People have been predicting the end of the world for centuries, 99 of them trying, or claiming, to interpret the The Book of Revelations. Many days have come and gone of supposed dates the world was to end but what people dont understand is Gods time is not remotely comparable or comprehensible to our earthly time.

Basically, no one will ever be able to predict the end of the world. Its just not possible. Its like trying to comprehend an infinite space with our finite minds.

I do believe that The Book of Revelations will come to pass, but not how its described in the Bible. The Book of Revelations is great with imagery and figurative writing and the Bible is known to use these to make a point, one we need to understand on a different level at times. I do not believe a seven-headed dragon will rise out of the ground when Armageddon occurs.

2060? I wouldnt count on it.

Sidney Hook. Clement Greenberg. Two you can't dismiss.

I studied Art History under Griselda Pollock, who I adored, and she put me off Greenberg, and so many others, for years. It took a while to work out she was half-wrong. I now have a lot of time for Greenberg.

he (literally) chewed up & spat out greenberg

Sunday editions still hold their own in ritual readers, as do some of the bigger city papers with boast-worthy reputations (NY Times, Chicago Tribune, etc), but even in these cases the circulation declines year over year, as does the marketing dollars spent, and interest in advertisers to place their ads within

we were discussing the decline of print newspapers (eg Seattle has no daily print paper these days, metro area 3.3 million) on the first couple of pages, so here's a reboot from north-west England - plugging myself if i may, here

But it is being a nob as a performance art pice which stops it from being insufferable and makes it brilliant.

As I've said on more than one occasion 'Craner' is the greatest fictional creation of the last 100 years

I can't wait till journalism is scuppered for good personally. I think journalism and 'news' is a scourge.
