>Libs still getting triggered because of Bible

I have Aphantasia, sounds cool but is a terribleness curse

>tl;dr I can't make mental images so my mind is always black
I cannot, therefore, create scenes in my mind. So I can't enjoy Harry potter or whatever since I can't make up the scene.

Any recommendations? Preferably non-fiction or at least superb fiction that doesn't require much imagination ;_;

Just type "paradise lost vintage classics" in Google, you should get an Amazon link, it's got a snake on the cover.

The penguin book im assuming probably has 300 pages of foot notes. I don't think you need to bother with that on your first read. In fact I'd advise you don't. Just relax and read the poem.

What does /lit/ think of Dante's Divine Comedy?
I remember being an edgy fedora as a teenager, wanting to really read it because it sounded cool as fuck, but I got triggered because it was Christian. So I waited...

Apparently there's an anime of it now

/lit/ has had enough of the alternative.

You'll get there, Anon. Keep the faith.

But Anon, religion is utterly inescapable in the human condition. Even people who claim to have no religion in reality subscribe to one, even if they do so unawares, and even if it does not carry the typical trappings of 'religion' as we understand it.

Take /pol/, for example. The vast majority of them are atheists, and yet they are not free from religion. Anti-Semitism is their religion. "The Jews" are their gods, and their faith that "The Jews" control every aspect of the world is as ironclad as any Christian's faith in Providence. They claim they hate "The Jews," but they would be nothing without them, because their existence, and the imagined resistance which that existence generates, gives their life purpose. Your god doesn't have to be your friend. He can be your enemy, too. What matters is that he's there.

The amount of people who are really and genuinely nonreligious are so small in number that they can probably be dismissed as a genetic anomaly.

>What exactly is Post-Modernism

A rejection of Form, thus a complement to Modernism's rejection of Truth

, and what comes after it?

Why, neomedievalism of course. Form and Truth both come back. The train is already leaving the station, but you can still jump on board.
