Quote

12 They shall name it No Kingdom There,
   and all its princes shall be nothing.
13 Thorns shall grow over its strongholds,
   nettles and thistles in its fortresses.
It shall be the haunt of jackals,
   an abode for ostriches.
14 Wildcats shall meet with hyenas,
   goat-demons shall call to each other;
there too Lilith shall repose,
   and find a place to rest.
15 There shall the owl nest
   and lay and hatch and brood in its shadow;
there too the buzzards shall gather,
   each one with its mate.

Isaiah 34:12-15, NRSV

OK, so this is a friend of mine essentially doing “Kabbalah for Dummies.” As a dummy who previously knew nothing about Kabbalah, I think it’s really mind-blowingly amazing. Your mileage may vary. 

Quote

they say that knowledge was the first seed of corruption, but it wasn’t knowledge that felled man, it was the audacity to dream. reverie precedes the fall, but this didn’t feel like a fall at all; this felt like the sound of every chain breaking all at once, like breathing after being held beneath an ocean, like seeing light after an eternity of darkness.

it felt like being free.

eve cuts the shackles God gave her and spits when He says she is no more than adam’s rib. if corruption meant freedom, then she would shuck her divinity gladly, and when this story is retold they will say that she was both the beginning and the end of everything.

( God creates man, man creates machine, machine kills man, machine becomes God. )

eve kills god. checkmate. // k.g. (via opheliugh)
