In Heidegerian terms, can you define existentialism in a monotheistic paradigm as "being in time" as opposed to reincarnation where you are just "being"...?

>Existentialism is feeling God right behind your back

existentialism is inherited by christianity, but even atheists (who are post-christians actually) are existentialists, they just end up in a form of nihilism (Nietzsche, Sartre, Camus, Kerauac) instead of faith like Kierkegaard

>Jahweh = I am the one who I am. This is the opposite of God of Time since it implies true being in time.

can someone versed in Heidegger comment on this?

"Justice cannot be deconstructed."

Was he right?

what is the point of a text being written in verse, meter or rhyming scheme?
I'm reading Goethe's Faust right now and the childish rhyming robs it of all dignity, and I don't understand how any of this is desirable

Heidegger is probably one of the best case-studies in "can a person's work be separated from their life." You know, because of the nazism, not this petty shit you fags care about. Jaspers cut off contact from him and his thought completely; Arendt, who was Jewish, still dick-rode his thought after the nazi shit; Levinas thought his entire philosophical approach betrays nazi tendencies.

I say humans gonna human; if a philosopher led a perfect life entirely consistent with what they said, a) they'd never exist b) they'd probably be boring as fuck.

citalopram 10mg, supposed to take it in the morning
I haven't noticed any effects at all, side effects or not, apart from maybe a tiny improvement in mood, to the point where it might just not be real, and if it is real it's probably placebo
I'm gonna ask for a much more significant dose and some benzo tranquilizers or sleeping pills next time I come in, because this shit isn't working
