St. Thomas Aquinas claimed that angels and the first couple (Adam and Eve) were unable to commit mortal sins because they were granted immunity from concupiscence.<\/p>\n
[Now, I will expand on the vignette that closed the previous blog by asking:<\/p>\n
Why do modern Public Cults appeal for a return to the Lebenswelt containing hand (speech) talk, that is, the world where we all belonged, were equal, were in material poverty, and did not know any different?<\/p>\n
Jacques Rousseau, in his second discourse, informed us that the key feature of this more ancient than \u2018ancient\u2019 world was the lack of private property.\u00a0 Once the habit of private property entered the scene, that monstrosity called \u201ccivilization\u201d started.<\/p>\n
The resonance between \u201cwhat Rousseau described as human before civilization\u201d and \u201cthe Lebenswelt of hand speech talking cultures\u201d is striking.<\/p>\n
What does \u201cprivate property\u201d mean?\u00a0 It means \u201cthat belongs to me\u201d.\u00a0 It also means that \u201cI belong to that\u201d.\u00a0 \u201cThat\u201d speaks of a differentiated world, instead of \u201cthe undifferentiated world that humans evolved in\u201d.<\/p>\n
Can you convey the concept of \u201cproperty\u201d through pantomime (manual brachial gesture)?<\/p>\n
Well, you can grab onto some thing and not let go.\u00a0 But then what happens when you fall asleep or cannot carry it everywhere?\u00a0 You cannot articulate: This is my \u201cproperty\u201d.\u00a0 You have to act out your desires so convincingly that the thing is there when you wake up.\u00a0 Sure, things were dear, but the people in your band were more dear.<\/p>\n
Even though our ancestors held onto some things and let others go, the term \u201cproperty\u201d was undefined in the Lebenswelt of hand speech talk.\u00a0 Yet, that lack of definition does not mean that \u201cthe holding onto some things and letting other things go\u201d was not lived every day.\u00a0 This drama was personal and collective, since, time and time again, everyone in the band had to move to a new location.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
