>Weil was born in her parents' apartment in Paris on 3 February 1909, the daughter of Bernard, a medical doctor, and Saolomea Weil; both parents were agnostic Alsatian Jews who had moved to Paris after the German annexation of Alsace-Lorraine.

Reading Weil as a gnostic is a big cringe. She affirms the body in her work. So she's more like Origen if anything, a Christian neo-Platonist who put more stock in their philosophy than in the Bible, which she happily ignored when it conflicted with her views. Marcionism is also a big cringe of those who cannot into pedagogical theodicy

mmmm imagine the curly thick pubes on this jewess

Well, she's a woman... So...
But seriously, how does one even reconcile that with their supposed "gnosticism"?

I read her in a class a few years ago. I'm pretty sure this sentence comes from "What is sacred in every human being?" and I think I liked what she said about collectives not having an identity but besides that it was the dogshit the person underlined in that image.

>>14652139
she's great but gnosticism?

HUH?

>>14654800
You can't because she isn't a gnostic. She was an extreme neo-Platonist, and it's only pseuds that can't tell the difference.

>>14652218
what does she smell like

>>14652139
the fact that she believed in the moral life proves she wasn't a gnostic, gnostics only care about attaining knowledge

>>14652139
You're the retard for thinking Weil was a Gnostic.

>>14654925
not any knowledge but knowledge that can save your soul.

>>14654927
She rejected the "God" of the Old Testamant and was a Marcionite.

>>14654937
marcionism =/= gnosticism

>>14654892
>she's great
how so?

>>14654937
>She rejected the "God" of the Old Testamant
Absolute cringe... Women really cannot be taken seriously when it comes to holding any non-standard opinions on religion. The extent of her ``reasoning'' for believing this probably boils down to "killing animals is mean!!! how could a just G-d command you to ritually slaughter an animal!!!"

>>14655322
retard

>>14655322
just because she's a woman it doesn't mean you can ad hominem

>>14655348
>she's a woman
that just confirms his opinion. at least trans's have a male brain to not fall into such sentimental protestant-tier retardation.

>>14655322
>Women really cannot be taken seriously
ftfy

>>14655322
Whatever works for you, (((hylic))).

>I liked what she said about collectives not having an identity
If collectives doesn't have an identity then nor do individuals.
Every person is a collective who can change on any given day or even based on what they had for breakfast. The meme of being a single static character only comes from stage plays which are forced to write characters like that for expediency.

She smells like the broom covered with dust, cat hairs, and tiny pieces of spiderwebs/cotton swabs/paper I used yesterday to swipe the floor behind the back of my bed after leaving it untouched ever since I moved over to this house years ago.
