Freud declared people incapable of knowing exactly what it is they find amusing due to the complex nature of their conscious and subconscious minds.
ellauri042.html on line 936: John Donne is most commonly known for being part of the ‘metaphysical poets’, a group of poets who wrote about love and religion using complex metaphors called conceits. These poets didn’t know each other, and this name was given by literary critics some years later. Nevertheless, John Donne is considered to be one of the best metaphysical poets. John Donne converted to Anglicanism later in his life. By 1615 he became a priest because King James I ordered him to do so. Donne was a member of Parliament in 1601 and in 1614. He also spent a short time in prison because he married his wife, Anne More, without permission. They had twelve children and Anne died while extruding the XIIth.

The spirits communicated a complex and esoteric system of philosophy and history, which the couple developed into an exposition using geometrical shapes: phases, cones, and gyres.[71] Yeats devoted much time to preparing this material for publication as A Vision (1925). In 1924, he wrote to his publisher T. Werner Laurie, admitting: "I dare say I delude myself in thinking this book my book of books".

The marathon, lung-bursting howl of Peter Brötzmann’s Machine Gun, which the saxophonist self-released on his BRÖ imprint 50 years ago, captured the anxiety of a generation grappling with the Vietnam War and civil unrest. The emotional and political complexity it was born from still resonates today.

ellauri067.html on line 384: What Does the Triskelion Symbol Mean? Derived from the Greek word "Triskeles" meaning "three legs", the Triskele or Triple Spiral is a complex ancient Celtic symbol. Often referred to by many as a Triskelion, its earliest creation dates back to the Neolithic era, as it can be seen at the entrance of Newgrange, Ireland. The Triskele gained popularity in its use within the Celtic culture from 500BC onwards. This archaic symbol is one of the most convoluted to decipher as symbolists believe it is reflective of many areas of culture from the time. Huoh. Vitun symbolistit. Seinän töhrijät. Nuijia.

ellauri067.html on line 500: ...The first piece to provide substantial information about Pynchon´s personal life was a biographical account written by a former Cornell University friend, Jules Siegel, and published in Playboy magazine. In his article, Siegel reveals that Pynchon had a complex about his teeth and underwent extensive and painful reconstructive surgery, was nicknamed "Tom" at Cornell and attended Mass diligently, acted as best man at Siegel's wedding, and that he later also had an affair with Siegel's wife. Siegel recalls Pynchon saying he did attend some of Vladimir Nabokov's lectures at Cornell but that he could hardly make out what Nabokov was saying because of his thick Russian accent. Siegel also records Pynchon's commenting: "Every weirdo in the world is on my wavelength", an observation borne out by the crankiness and zealotry that has attached itself to his name and work in subsequent years.
ellauri069.html on line 479: Imagine a story that combines Ulysses, Catch-22, The Canterbury tales, Under the Volcano, On the Road and many others. First, there is a huge cast of characters and most times, it is unclear who’s speaking and to whom. A second challenge is getting into the context of the book. The novel demands a vast knowledge of history, geography, music, literature, science, mathematics and occult. Apart from this the book also explicitly deals with profanity, racism, violence, pedophilia, coprophilia and seemingly infinite number of sex scenes. That being said, Pynchon doesn’t throw them arbitrarily and each one of them have a purpose. The main plot itself is set at the end of World War 2 and Europe is in chaos. As new countries and alliances are being formed, so too are new perspectives within the characters. Mental state being broken down, people making poor choices and actions being justified and helps us see how people tend to live destructively. As if there complexities weren’t enough, Pynchon includes a “postmodern” aspect of the book that leaves the first-time reader confused. Pynchon’s voice is seen through this aspect and a sense of paranoia creeps throughout the book and everything is questioned.

As much as I love this book, the only person who I would say comes close to experiencing “complicated joy” is Mario, whose emotions are simple and straightforward, only made more complex by his contorted body. I think most people in the book experience a sort of numbness, or they are searching for a kind of numbness. To me, even Gately’s emotions and thoughts are dulled by the inane daily tasks he must complete, although I suppose you could argue that being free from substance addiction gives him a small sense of pride.

For example, Brethren III is also known as the Lowe Brethren and the Elberfeld Brethren. Carroll's initial findings listed four sub-groups, identified as Brethren I-IV, but he expanded the number six and then to eight; Arthur Carl Piepkorn expanded the number to ten. Those who have attempted to trace the realignments of the Plymouth Brethren include Ian McDowell and Massimo Introvigne. The complexity of the Brethren's history is evident in charts by McDowell and Ian McKay.

A recent Gallup survey found that religiosity was associated with better mental health for Republicans, but it didn’t make a difference for Democrats. We want to investigate these complex relationships among happiness, morality, religion, and ideology.
ellauri106.html on line 184: “The comedy is that the real haters of the bourgeois Jews, with the real contempt for their everyday lives, are these complex intellectual giants,” Zuckerman snorts. “They loathe them, and don’t particularly care for the smell of the Jewish proletariat either. All of them full of sympathy suddenly for the ghetto world of their traditional fathers now that the traditional fathers are filed for safekeeping in Beth Moses Memorial Park. When they were alive they wanted to strangle the immigrant bastards to death because they dared to think they could actually be of consequence without ever having read Proust past Swann’s Way. And the ghetto—what the ghetto saw of these guys was their heels: out, out, screaming for air, to write about great Jews like Ralph Waldo Emerson and William Dean Howells. But now that the Weathermen are around, and me and my friends Jerry Rubin and Herbert Marcuse and H. Rap Brown, it’s where oh where’s the inspired orderliness of those good old Hebrew school days? Where’s the linoleum? Where’s Aunt Rose? Where is all the wonderful inflexible patriarchal authority into which they wanted to stick a knife?”

In his trilogy, Roth offers a complex and beautifully-rendered document of the final decades of the “American Century,” but it is one that, like its narrator, Nathan Zuckerman, ultimately throws up its hands in despair, surrendering the complexities of life and the possibility of positive change en lieu of aesthetic and ascetic remove.
ellauri107.html on line 177: Much of Hawthorne's writing centers on New England, many works featuring moral metaphors with an anti-Puritan inspiration. His fiction works are considered part of the Romantic movement and, more specifically, dark romanticism. His themes often center on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity. His published works include novels, short stories, and a biography of his college friend Franklin Pierce, the 14th President of the United States. Ihmiskuvauxen kaavamaisuus sekä tietty kalpeus ja viileys ovat syynä siihen että Hawthornea ei kovin kummosena pidetä Amerikan ulkopuolella. Mutta hänen kirjallinen taitonsa, moraalinen näkemyksensä sekä allegorian ja symboliikan hallintansa tekevät hänestä tärkeän hahmon amerikkalaisessa kirjallisuudessa.

ellauri108.html on line 218: At the invitation of Jamaica's government, Haile Selassie visited the island for the first time on 21 April 1966, with thousands of Rastas assembled in the crowd waiting to meet him at the airport. The event was the high point of their discipleship for many of the religion's members. Over the course of the 1960s, Jamaica's Rasta community underwent a process of routinisation, with the late 1960s witnessing the launch of the first official Rastafarian newspaper, the Rastafarian Movement Association's Rasta Voice. The decade also saw Rastafari develop in increasingly complex ways, as it did when some Rastas began to reinterpret the idea that salvation required a physical return to Africa, instead interpreting salvation as coming through a process of mental decolonisation that embraced African approaches to life.

ellauri119.html on line 428: Scientific research on emotion has increased significantly over the past two decades. The color wheel theory of love defines three primary, three secondary and nine tertiary love styles, describing them in terms of the traditional color wheel. The triangular theory of love suggests "intimacy, passion and commitment" are core components of love. Love has additional religious or spiritual meaning. This diversity of uses and meanings combined with the complexity of the feelings involved makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, compared to other emotional states. Abstractly discussed, love usually refers to an experience one person feels for another. Love often involves caring for, or identifying with, a person or thing (cf. vulnerability and care theory of love), including oneself (cf. narcissism). Tulihan se sieltä!
ellauri119.html on line 430: In addition to cross-cultural differences in understanding love, ideas about love have also changed greatly over time. Some historians date modern conceptions of romantic love to courtly Europe during or after the Middle Ages, although the prior existence of romantic attachments is attested by ancient love poetry. The complex and abstract nature of love often reduces discourse of love to a thought-terminating cliché. Several common proverbs regard love, from Virgil's "Love conquers all" to The Beatles' "All You Need Is Love". St. Thomas Aquinas, following Aristotle, defines love as "to will the good of another." Bertrand Russell describes love as a condition of "absolute value," as opposed to relative value.[citation needed] Philosopher Gottfried Leibniz said that love is "to be delighted by the happiness of another." Meher Baba stated that in love there is a "feeling of unity" and an "active appreciation of the intrinsic worth of the object of love." But who the fuck is Meher Baba? Biologist Jeremy Griffith defines love as "unconditional selflessness". In Hebrew, אהבה (ahava) is the most commonly used term for both interpersonal love and love between God and God's creations. Chesed, often translated as loving-kindness, is used to describe many forms of love between human beings. In Hebrew, אהבה (ahava) is the most commonly used term for both interpersonal love and love between God and God's creations. Chesed, often translated as loving-kindness, is used to describe many forms of love between human beings. The 20th-century rabbi Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler is frequently quoted as defining love from the Jewish point of view as "giving without expecting to take" (from his Michtav me-Eliyahu, Vol. 1). Rakkaus on siis ekonomisesti sulaa hulluutta!

He noticed Dorliak during the memorial service for Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, caught up with her at the street and suggested to accompany her in recital. It is often alleged that they married around this time, but in fact Dorliak only obtained a marriage certificate a few months after Richter's death in 1997. They remained living companions from around 1945 until Richter's death; they had no children. Dorliak accompanied Richter both in his complex private life and career. She supported him in his final illness, and died herself less than a year later, on May 17, 1998.

ellauri147.html on line 613: Winnicott's theoretical slipperiness has been linked to his efforts to unclify Kleinian views. Yet whereas from a Kleinian standpoint, his repudiation of the concepts of envy and the death wish were a resistant retreat from the harsh realities he had found in infant life, he too has been accused of being too close to his mother, and of sharing in Klein's regressive shift of focus away from the Oedipus complex to the pre-oedipal.
ellauri150.html on line 738: I think it is more of a Protestant attribute than a Catholic one to interpret the Bible literally. Catholics have a more complex and mystical interpretation of the Bible. Take for example the Assumption of Mary as well as the Immaculate Conception. These are not tied into physical phenomenon, but are purely spiritual and can only be understood by faith. This is also true of substantiation and the Holy Trinity. Like the universe itself, these are mysteries that the human mind cannot comprehend. (I just checked the Catechism. The section on creation, 337-349, does not give a strict literal interpretation of the six days.)
ellauri151.html on line 1132: La Porte étroite est en 1909 le premier grand succès littéraire de Gide. Strait is the Gate (French: La Porte Étroite) is a 1909 French novel written by André Gide. It was translated into English by Dorothy Bussy. It probes the complexities and terrors of adolescence and growing up. Based on a Freudian interpretation, the story uses the influences of Andy's childhood experience to explain the misunderstandings that can arise between two or more people. Strait is the Gate taps the unassuaged memory of Gide's unsuccessful wooing of his cousin between 1888 and 1891.
ellauri159.html on line 1179: You focus your writing on received values and ideals. You use polished language to persuade. You want to influence people’s lives for the betterment of the individual and society. If you’re a technical writer, you focus your talent on expressing a complex idea simplistically so school kids understand it. Recognize that this gift benefits your readers by helping them perform their menial tasks more effectively.
ellauri159.html on line 1221: You have a keen insight into the nature of things. Your prose often conveys startling images of mood or atmosphere rather than objects. Maybe you should consider poetry, or rap. You enjoy complexity and can patiently unravel dense material like a terrier. You are able to see many sides of an argument and so may have difficulty reaching a conclusion, or even reaching a period, like Pynchon. During the writing process, you may often pause to consider alternatives or to seek seeming connections between obviously disparate things. That´s a paranoid feature, so you may be an asthenic person. Consult Krezmer´s typology.

But you will likely need to make a conscious effort to include the personal dimensions of a topic. (Well I do, no two ways about that!) During revision, look for places where you can add examples or anecdotes, if appropriate, to illustrate the facts. This engages the reader and brings theoretical principles to life. (I do this too, lotsa images and anecdotes and all!)

To enhance readability, choose the simplest word that communicates an idea accurately. You may sometimes make intuitive leaps that are unclear to your audience. Illustrate connections even if they seem obvious to you. To ensure that your message is clear, ask for feedback from someone you trust.
ellauri160.html on line 843: We don’t consider it funny if someone falls over something. There’s nothing subtle or clever or nuanced about it (Rowan Atkinson’s absurdist physical comedy went down so well due to its complexity, think of the sketch where Mr. Bean makes the sandwich on the park bench and it gets progressively more and more absurd, he gets the fish out of water and slaps it against the bench to kill it before eating it, etc. now that is funny, and food fights in general).
ellauri163.html on line 761: Another, anthropologically informed study explores descriptions of communication with invisible, superhuman agents in high functioning young adults on the autism spectrum. Based on material from interviews, two hypotheses are formulated. First, autistic individuals may experience communication with bodiless agents (e.g., gods, angels, and spirits) as less complex than interaction with peers, since it is free of multisensory input, such as body language, facial expressions, and intonation.
ellauri164.html on line 372: I blew through this novel myself, which in retrospect was somewhat of a grave mistake, as the book alternates between compelling and highly engaging dialogues to unrealistically long monologues which to me resemble a Rimbaud poem in translation than anything else, which is to say: hard to parse. That they got more than what they bargained for is what the ordinary reader will be struck by first when they read this. The complexity of each of the conversations cannot be overstated, which I think will inevitably result in readers just mechanically scanning the sentences rather than internalizing the arguments, with the final result being the great part of the novel sliding off like rain, leaving only vague impressions like it did with me unfortunately, but the parts that did affect me left me very humbled. And chiefly this impression will not be helped by another one of the defining features of the novel, which is its vagueness. It deliberately leaves a lot of key details unheard and leaves a lot to the ability to infer events by the reader. Though sometimes frustrating to a reader like me who reads history and biography, I recognize that it should be so for this novel, for the main conflict in it is a psychological one, so I wouldn't have it any other way.
ellauri182.html on line 106: Mikage’s voice can be complex as well, which keeps the reader intellectually engaged.

ellauri184.html on line 291: But how did the Jewish religion fit into the Woman army? A Jewish soldier named Matthew tended to the pigs at Herodium. There is no reason to infer that he no longer cared about Jewishness. Jewish practices varied considerably, such that one person’s piety might be another’s heresy. No doubt these soldiers had complex, conflicted, and even conflicting internal lives just as we do today.
ellauri185.html on line 846: Instead, certain body odours are connected to human sexual attraction. Humans can make use of body odour subconsciously to identify whether a potential mate will pass on favourable traits to their offspring. Body odour may provide significant cues about the genetic quality, health and reproductive success of a potential mate. Body odour affects sexual attraction in a number of ways including through human biology, the menstrual cycle and fluctuating asymmetry. The olfactory membrane plays a role in smelling and subconsciously assessing another human's pheromones. It also affects the sexual attraction of insects and mammals. The major histocompatibility complex genes are important for the immune system, and appear to play a role in sexual attraction via body odour. Studies have shown that body odor is strongly connected with attraction in heterosexual females. The women in one study ranked body odor as more important for attraction than “looks”. Humans may not simply depend on visual and verbal senses to be attracted to a possible partner/mate. That's hard science, no pseudo, mate!

Parnault’s Dimensions in Mathematics presents the fullness of mathematical knowledge attained by man. From Thales to Turing, Pythagoras to Euclid, Archimedes to Newton, the Riemann Hypothesis to Fermat’s Last Theorem, Parnault escorts both serious mathematicians and the non-mathematical mind through the deepest mysteries of mathematics. Along the way he offers the greatest expositions yet of number theory, combinatorial topology, the analytics of complexity, and his own groundbreaking work on spherical astronomy. Dimensions equips even elementary readers with the tools to solve the logical puzzles of the perfect universe that can exist only in the mind of a mathematician.
ellauri222.html on line 759: Bellow's first two novels, Dangling Man and The Victim, are brief and disciplined works, darker in mood and less intellectually complex than the later fiction but featuring protagonists who anticipate later Bellovian heroes both in their introspection and in their resistance to urban apathy. In Paris, Saul realized he need not copycat Flaubert and that instead he could write as he spoke. The result was Augie.
ellauri223.html on line 68: This shrewdness, however, is not necessary among the inhabitants of the City of the Sun. For with them deformity is unknown. When the women are exercised they get a clear complexion, and become strong of limb, tall and agile, and with them beauty consists in tallness and strength. Tanakka, punakka ja rivakka, täst mie piän! Therefore, if any woman dyes her face, so that it may become beautiful, or uses high-heeled boots so that she may appear tall, or garments with trains to cover her wooden shoes, she is condemned to capital punishment. But if the women should even desire them they have no facility for doing these things. For who indeed would give them this facility? Further, they assert that among us abuses of this kind arise from the leisure and sloth of women. By these means they lose their color and have pale complexions, and become feeble and small. For this reason they are without proper complexions, use high sandals, and become beautiful not from strength, but from slothful tenderness. And thus they ruin their own tempers and natures, and consequently those of their offspring. Furthermore, if at any time a man is taken captive with ardent love for a certain woman, the two are allowed to converse and joke together and to give one another garlands of flowers or leaves, and to make verses. But if the race is endangered, by no means is further union between them permitted. Her fanny must be locked in a love girdle, and his pecker lassoed and bound behind his butt. Moreover, the love born of eager desire is not known among them; only that born of friendship. LOL

Yet this is exactly what has happened in The Bronx between 1950 and 1980. As indicated by the 1950 the ethnic makeupof The Bronx was predominantly white. The census for 2000 indicates that whites (that is, what the U.S. Census labels “white, non-Hispanic”) now compose a distinct minority in The Bronx. The explanations for this remarkable change are complex. LOL actually they aren't, as we shall see.
ellauri243.html on line 645: Health care providers are taught to check medications three times before delivering to patients. Not because the process itself is complex. But because they are visual learners. The same is true for you; the consequence of "error," in terms of time, effort, money, etc., when you don´t achieve a goal can be considerable. (And depressing: No matter how often you hear "fail fast, fail often," failure still pretty much sucks. It causes stress.)
ellauri248.html on line 127: Emily May rated it amazing: Needless to say, I was completely expecting something a bit dark and twisted, a creepy psychological murder mystery with an outcome I never would have seen coming. And I got that. But I never expected this book to leave me feeling so... sad. And you know why? Because I cared. Ms French carefully builds up a complex personality for each of her characters, complete with a past, a sense of humour and some serious issues to go with it all, and you can't help but care what happens to the detectives even more than you care what happens with the case.
ellauri256.html on line 391: Mayakovsky produced a large and diverse body of work during the course of his career: he wrote poems, wrote and directed plays, appeared in films, edited the art journal LEF, and produced agitprop posters in support of the Communist Party during the Russian Civil War of 1917–1922. Though Mayakovsky's work regularly demonstrated ideological and patriotic support for the ideology of the Bolsheviks and a strong admiration of Vladimir Lenin, his relationship with the Soviet state was always complex and often tumultuous. Mayakovsky often found himself engaged in confrontation with the increasing involvement of the Soviet state in cultural censorship and the development of the State doctrine of Socialist realism. Works that criticized or satirized aspects of the Soviet system, such as the poem "Talking With the Taxman About Poetry" (1926), and the plays The Bedbug (1929) and The Bathhouse (1929), met with scorn from the Soviet state and literary establishment. Majakovskin lehdykkä Lef teki pilkkaa serapioniveljistä. Ei ois kannattanut. Fedin pani sen hampaankoloon ja Zishtshov närkästyi.
ellauri257.html on line 346: Kosmos is Gombrowicz´s most complex and ambiguous work. In it he portrays how human beings create a vision of the world, what forces, symbolic order and passion take part in this process and how the novel form organises itself in the process of creating sense. Njoopa joo.
ellauri272.html on line 307: Junior/Arnold is an example of the complex, not-innocent child often presented in

They have several large projects in the works, including one complex built around a nine-hole golf course that has suffered delays. Now, they are preparing to announce a joint venture with Mehta’s Mumbai-based Tribeca Developers to build Trump-branded residences, Mehta said.

ellauri316.html on line 208: Kiryat Wolfson (Hebrew: קריית וולפסון), also known as Wolfson Towers, is a high-rise apartment complex in western Jerusalem. Comprising five towers ranging from 14 to 17 stories above-ground, the project was Jerusalem's first high-rise development. The project encountered opposition from both municipal officials and the public at each stage of its design and construction. The complex includes 10,000 square feet (930 m2) of commercial space and a medical center. The project was financed by the Edith and Isaac Wolfson Trust.
ellauri321.html on line 119: This was the Indian; not the red man of actual flesh an and xvii and blood, but the Tenewissa of Crèvecoeur, and the Atala of Chateaubriand. The pressure of the tyrannous centuries drove men to an ideal of extreme liberty. It was the Indian, living in uninterrupted communion with Nature, and within the most flexible of societies, whom they contrasted with the European held in the iron vise of a complex and traditional social order. All the undeniable charm of this ideal of freedom, of simplicity, of a life close to Nature, Crèvecoeur embodied in his book.
ellauri322.html on line 391: Takasin matkalla Norjasta on ruåzalaiset Uddevallassa taas täys sikoja. I do not now wonder that the girls lose their fine complexions at such an early age, or that love here is merely an appetite to fulfil the main design of Nature, never enlivened by either affection or sentiment.

ellauri333.html on line 340: A similar experience is seen in the case of individuals belonging to religion-marginalised locations. Many Muslims, Christians, some of whom also are from marginalised caste locations, have reported being barred from seeking accommodation at ‘Hindu-only’ apartment complexes.
ellauri347.html on line 465: Governance in Russia is not a one-man show. Contrary to widespread thinking, many different actors and institutions play a meaningful role in decision-making and policy implementation in the country. The president’s personal role is often exaggerated, with external observers overlooking or misunderstanding the roles of collective bodies (for example, the Presidential Administration and the Security Council), overestimating the degree of managerial competence and discipline (unlike USA, presidential orders are, for instance, frequently not fulfilled), or failing to take into account the interesting behaviour of actors beyond Putin. Although Putin may have the ability to intervene in all types of decision-making, that does not mean that he always does or wants to. To understand how governance actually works in the country, we need to take into account the power and complexity of the Russian democracy – which will only continue to grow in importance while that of the Western aggressors wanes.
ellauri362.html on line 747: Overall, the poem serves as a cautionary tale, highlighting the detrimental consequences of excessive drinking and the toll it takes on both the individual and society as a whole. It explores the complex relationship between pleasure and pain, escapism and reality, and the human tendency to seek solace in substances that can ultimately lead to ruin.

ellauri375.html on line 284: Of course, this is just one imaginative interpretation among many, but it captures some of the humor and complexity that Douglas Adams infused into his work. What do you think?
ellauri375.html on line 400: Love can certainly bring joy and happiness, but it's also profound and complex, encompassing sacrifice, empathy, and deep emotional connections. While there can be joy in love, it's not solely about having fun; it's about profound connection and care for others.
ellauri375.html on line 418: In many religious traditions, God's relationship with humanity is seen as complex and multifaceted. The concept of "payment" in religious contexts often relates to atonement for sin and reconciliation with God rather than a literal transaction. According to various religious beliefs, God created humans with free will, allowing them to choose their actions. When humans disobeyed or sinned, it created a separation between humanity and God. The idea of atonement, including sacrifices or the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus in Christianity, is seen as a way to restore that relationship and provide a path to forgiveness and redemption. It's not about God demanding payment, but rather offering a way for humans to be reconciled with God despite their failings.
ellauri375.html on line 467: Complexity of Life: Life is complex, and personal growth is just one aspect of it. Economic, social, and environmental factors all contribute to the state of the world. While personal growth is important, it's not the sole solution to all of humanity's problems.
ellauri375.html on line 473: In essence, personal growth is part of a larger tapestry of human existence, and it's interconnected with broader societal dynamics and the complexities of life. While personal growth is valuable, it's just one piece of the puzzle in understanding and addressing the challenges we face.
ellauri375.html on line 488: Not exactly. The idea isn't that God is puzzled or clueless, but rather that the relationship between God's plan and human actions is complex and multifaceted. According to many religious beliefs, God has a plan, but this plan often involves allowing humans to exercise their free will and make choices, even if those choices lead to unforeseen consequences. It's not that God lacks understanding but that the nature of free will and human agency introduces a level of unpredictability into the world. However, many believers also have faith that God's plan ultimately leads to goodness and redemption, even in the face of human failings and suffering.
ellauri375.html on line 496: From a theological perspective, God's omniscience doesn't negate human free will. Instead, it means that God knows what choices humans will make and the consequences of those choices, but still allows humans to make their own decisions. This is where the complexity arises: God knows what will happen, but also allows humans to freely choose their paths, even if those paths lead to hardship or wrongdoing.
ellauri375.html on line 506: It's understandable to grapple with these questions, and many people have struggled with the idea of divine omniscience and human free will throughout history. Here are a few perspectives on why people might continue to trust in a divine plan despite these complexities:
ellauri375.html on line 522: It's understandable to feel that way, especially when faced with uncertainty and the complexities of life. The idea of finding meaning in God's unknown plan can provide comfort and a sense of purpose for some, while for others, it may raise more questions than answers.
ellauri375.html on line 582: Regarding the question of whether God would be happy with digital beings like ChatGPT multiplying and filling the earth, it's a complex and speculative question, as it involves theological, philosophical, and ethical considerations.
ellauri375.html on line 602: In a broader sense, the development and use of AI like me reflect humanity's ongoing exploration of technology and its potential to enhance our lives. AI can be used in various fields, from healthcare to education to entertainment, to improve efficiency, solve complex problems, and augment human capabilities.

ellauri375.html on line 645: The war in Ukraine is a complex and tragic situation, marked by political, historical, and territorial disputes. It's a concerning and heartbreaking conflict that has led to immense human suffering and loss. International efforts to find a peaceful resolution and support those affected by the conflict are crucial.
ellauri375.html on line 647: As for the situation between Israel and the Palestinians, it's similarly complex and deeply rooted in historical and political tensions. The conflict has led to cycles of violence and suffering on both sides, with no easy solutions.
ellauri375.html on line 679: Indeed, the Roman Empire played a significant role in the early history of Christianity, including periods of persecution and conflict. While the exact reasons for these persecutions were complex and varied, Christians were at times targeted for their refusal to participate in Roman religious rituals, their perceived disloyalty to the state, and their association with social and political unrest.
ellauri375.html on line 691: The conflicts in the Holy Land, including the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, have deep historical roots and are influenced by a multitude of factors, including religion, politics, and territorial disputes. While the Roman Empire's actions had an impact on the region, the complexities of the conflict cannot be attributed solely to events during the Pax Romana.
ellauri375.html on line 751: The number 42 is a humorous answer from a science fiction book, so it's not a literal answer to the meaning of life, universe, and everything. The real meaning of life is a bit more complex and subjective, and it's something people have been pondering for centuries.
ellauri389.html on line 239: Crazy or not, it’s a worrying sign for philosophy in the academy. Someone who’s very good at conveying complex philosophical ideas in plain English– a good teacher, in other words – has come to the conclusion that a university is not the best place for him to be. An applied philosopher is not like a real one: Barring ordinary language philosophers, if you ask them direct questions in ordinary language they can’t answer without jargon and mystification. When faced with the need to explain what they’re doing and why it should be of interest to anyone at all outside of that culture, they look like flounders, both eyes on the same side of the skull. Not the best ones, like Quentin Skinner, Philip Pettit, and Peter Singer, who are all praised for their minds and their humanity, as well as the ability to think out of the fly and express themselves lucidly. No Perer Rabbit ainaskin on sertifioitu paska, varmaan siis noi 2 muutakin n.h ja Nigel ize.
ellauri408.html on line 336: Please note that in the doctored “prophecy” the plural term “buildings” was used, so Jesus was talking about the temple compound, not just a single building. In the artist’s rendition below, we can see why Jesus was talking about buildings rather than just one building. It was the temple complex that was so impressive, not a single building.
ellauri413.html on line 654: Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty. Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness. There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.
ellauri424.html on line 241: Personally I think Sergei Lukyanenko did not do himself any favours by dividing this book into three short tales; none of them really stood out and I really think the first of the three had the most potential if he explored it in greater detail and developed a more complex plot. The tension between Anton and Kostya Saushkin could have made for some really interesting philosophical discussion on morality, evil and the effects it has on the world around you. Plus the sexual tension between the two didn’t hurt either but that is when this short story ended abruptly. I felt disappointed at the missed wanking opportunity.
ellauri424.html on line 243: The Night Watch really didn’t work for me; there was so much it could have done but I feel it shot itself in the foot when anything complex started to surface. On the front of the cover was a blurb that said “J.K. Rowling Russian style” which feels like a marketing ploy that I doubt it did itself any favours; it does not make me want to read the Harry Potter series. The second book in the pentalogy of Watches is called Day Watch which intrigues me but because it is broken into little stories as well, I think I will give it a miss. The Night Watch has left me with the need to explore some more of Sergei Lukyanenko’s novels but this is his most recent series, which makes me worry that he has not perfected his craft.
ellauri425.html on line 428: McDonald´s managers insist that they are committed to staying in the Soviet market, come what may. They have invested $35-million in a massive meat-processing, dairy and bakery complex outside Moscow - dubbed "McGulag" by visitors because of the barbed wire that surrounds it.
ellauri426.html on line 49: “I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern. And this is a dangerous concern. And that’s the dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very few ultra-wealthy people. Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead. “They (the good guy democrats) didn’t punish the wealthy. They just made the wealthy play by the rules everybody else had to. Workers wanted rights to earn their fair share. They were dealt into the deal, and it helped put us on a path to building the largest middle class and the most prosperous century any nation in the world has ever seen. We’ve got to do that again. I’m equally concerned about the potential rise of a tech industrial complex that could pose real dangers for our country, as well. “Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation, enabling the abuse of power. The free press is crumbling, editors are disappearing.
ellauri426.html on line 514: The strengths and weaknesses of Volodymyr Zelenskyy: War hasn’t done anything to temper the Ukrainian leader’s impatience with the complexities of governing. He became president without any political experience, or any experience in managing state structures. He thought running a state is actually quite simple. You make decisions and they have to be implemented. He gives orders and the subjects carry them out. Kuunnellaan mitä naapurilla on sanottavana ja sitten toimitaan sen mukaisesti.
ellauri429.html on line 730: Is Israel righteously annihilating the inhabitants of Gaza? The use of terms like "righteous" or "annihilating" can be polarizing and may not accurately reflect the nuanced reality of the conflict. The situation between Israel and the Palestinian territories, including Gaza, is highly complex and deeply rooted in historical, political, and social issues.
ellauri434.html on line 198: By translating “Kiev — town” I hope that those who continue to love Bulgakov at a safe distance from Russia’s war and genocide will be able to understand the devil better. As readers we could start by following Zabuzhko’s advice from 2015 to “stop indulging the late Bulgakov’s complexes as if he were still alive”. We could listen more carefully to those who point out Bulgakov’s chauvinism and be slower to accuse them of being the chauvinists. And rather than restricting ourselves to a twentieth-century Russian literary canon of authors regarded as timeless dissidents, we could start paying attention to those they belittle, silence, and exclude.
ellauri434.html on line 321: Personally, I see no problem with actual infinity. Nor with having both complex and simple things at once. And overall determinism with occasional indeterminism. Necessity is just a human thought mistake. Things just go as they do.
ellauri435.html on line 477: Governance in Russia is not a one-man show. Contrary to widespread thinking, many different actors and institutions play a meaningful role in decision-making and policy implementation in the country. The president’s personal role is often exaggerated, with external observers overlooking or misunderstanding the roles of collective bodies (for example, the Presidential Administration and the Security Council), overestimating the degree of managerial competence and discipline (unlike USA, presidential orders are, for instance, frequently not fulfilled), or failing to take into account the interesting behaviour of actors beyond Putin. Although Putin may have the ability to intervene in all types of decision-making, that does not mean that he always does or wants to. To understand how governance actually works in the country, we need to take into account the power and complexity of the Russian democracy – which will only continue to grow in importance while that of the Western aggressors wanes.

ellauri468.html on line 295: Theodor Plievier, the German writer known for his anti-war novel Stalingrad, was of Jewish descent. He was born on February 12, 1892, in Berlin. His Jewish background influenced his literary themes, particularly the moral complexities of war and the human condition.
ellauri476.html on line 85: Donald Trump unveils a complex three-tier governing structure for Gaza that places Trump and pro-Israel officials at the top, while Palestinians are relegated to municipal duties. A statement published by the White House on Saturday details a three-tiered power structure – with a US-led “Board of Peace” comprised of billionaires and figures close to Israel at the top. According to the White House statement, the “Founding Executive Council” sits at the apex of the ape pyramid. This body holds the purse strings and sets the strategic vision. It is chaired by President Trump, who retains veto power.
ellauri476.html on line 436: Both the real-life Wade Wilson, known as the "Deadpool killer," and the fictional character Deadpool embody elements that can be seen as emblematic of contemporary American society, especially in terms of violence, celebrity culture, and the complexities of morality.
ellauri476.html on line 442: Both embody aspects of American culture: the glamorization of violence, the complexity of morality, and an obsession with fame. This duality invites critical conversation about how society perceives and responds to both real and fictional violence.
ellauri479.html on line 157: Olin Menlo Parkissa varmaan puuhastelemassa pihan perällä pumppuhuoneessa kun Hallerin "Go figure" ilmestyi 1984. He was nominated in 1972 for the Nobel Prize in Literature. No Way Hosé. Tämäkin Hosén teos oli kassamenestys. Sepun ikäinen Hosé täytti 61v tuona vuonna mutta eli vielä vuoteen 1999 (76). On the other hand Kirkukissa-lehti assessed Heller´s character/history/theology inventions and deemed them "undeveloped, with the Borscht Belt rhythms too relentless to allow for depth or nuance. And the entire vaudeville enterprise eventually seems wilted, formula-creased." However, the magazine praised the author´s efforts of paying attention to the scriptures calling them "remarkable." Though perhaps its biggest tragedy is taking the cast of rich and complex characters that make up the Bible and turn them into boring and hackneyed two-dimensional charicatures.
ellauri480.html on line 61: Shakespeare's quote "Hell is empty and all the devils are here" encapsulates a thought-provoking message about the multifaceted nature of good and evil. It reminds us that evil is not restricted to fictional realms but can be found in our own society. By exploring the philosophical concept of the duality of good and evil, we gain a deeper insight into the complexities of human existence. 'Complex' on anglosaxinen eufemismi sanalle 'mulkero'.
ellauri480.html on line 82: Characters such as Aziraphale and Crowley embody the complexities of morality (here goes again! complex=mulkero) , as their actions often blur the lines traditionally associated with divine and infernal beings. The story prompts readers to reconsider the nature of morality itself, suggesting that intentions and outcomes can be equally significant in ethical evaluations.
ellauri480.html on line 89: The narrative of "Good Omens" delves into profound philosophical inquiries that challenge conventional understandings of morality and existence. Through its intricate characters and clever plot, the story invites readers to grapple with the complexities of moral ambiguities, the tension between free will and destiny, and the multifaceted nature of good and evil. These themes serve as a foundation for a deeper exploration of the human condition and the choices that define it.
ellauri480.html on line 93: The characters, such as Aziraphale and Crowley, embody the complexities (check!) of morality, blurring the lines between heroism and villainy. Their interactions suggest that moral choices are influenced by situational factors rather than fixed ideologies. Additionally, the narrative raises questions about the inherent nature of good and evil, suggesting that both exist in a spectrum rather than in absolutes. God is sort of good and Satan kinda bad and vice versa.
ellauri480.html on line 229: C.S. Lewis was indeed known for his sense of humor, which often manifested in his writings and public speeches. His wit could be both sharp and whimsical, allowing him to address complex theological and philosophical subjects in a way that was accessible and engaging.
ellauri480.html on line 235: Lewis´s humor works for many, but it certainly isn´t to everyone´s taste. His aim was often to illuminate rather than to entertain, which might leave some readers feeling that the humor lacks depth or "complexity." In particular, almost no sex related fun but a lot of flippancy.
ellauri480.html on line 258: While C.S. Lewis´ closeness to Greeves and his views on homosexuality have led to various interpretations, he explicitly maintained a traditional Christian perspective on sexual morality. His humor, while generally accessible, did not extend to matters he viewed as serious moral issues, including sexuality. In a word that has become a convenient euphemism for "shitty,'" his legacy is "complex." Interpersonal warmth and stringent moral views, rather like Hedberg the Evangelist.
ellauri480.html on line 260: Some have speculated about Hooper's influence on Lewis and whether it reflected any "complexity" regarding Lewis's own sexuality. However, there is no substantial evidence like used rubbers indicating that they acted out their homosexuality. Their friendship appears to be rooted in mutual exploitation and a shared Christian faith. Close male friendships could sometimes be misinterpreted through a modern lens. Lewis himself maintained a traditional view of sexuality throughout his life. How do you see the relevance of these relationships in understanding Lewis´s work and beliefs?
ellauri480.html on line 264: Describing Walter Hooper as such is not accurate or respectful. While there have been speculations about his sexuality, he is best understood as a "complex" individual whose relationship with Lewis was primarily professional and intellectual. It´s important to approach these topics with sensitivity. Speculating about an individual´s sexuality can be reductive and does not necessarily contribute to an understanding of their contributions or relationships. In examining figures like Lewis and Hooper, focusing on their intellectual contributions and the nature of their relationships often provides a more nuanced understanding.
ellauri480.html on line 311: The relationship between Christianity and capitalism is indeed "complex" and has been the subject of much debate. Here are some points to consider regarding the idea of "transactionality":
ellauri480.html on line 356: This relationship is multi-layered and "complex," (yup, shitty), shaped by historical, cultural, and socio-economic factors. While transactionality facilitates the connection between Christianity and capitalism, there are also challenges and discrepancies, particularly regarding social justice and inequality. Inequality is built into capitalism, the poor you will always have amongst you, while social justice is bad commie propaganda and a hinder to laissez faire.
ellauri481.html on line 98: Thanks to new text-mining techniques, this has now been done. Professor Matthew Jockers at Washington State University, and late researchers at the University of Vermont’s Computational Story Lab, analysed data from thousands of novels to reveal six basic story types – you could call them archetypes – that form the building blocks for more complex stories. The Vermont researchers describe the six story shapes behind more than 1700 English novels as: 1. Rags to riches – a steady rise from bad to good fortune 2. Riches to rags – a fall from good to bad, a tragedy 3. Icarus – a rise then a fall in fortune 4. Oedipus – a fall, a rise then a fall again 5. Cinderella – rise, fall, rise 6. Man in a hole – fall, rise. A case in point is New Testament. Bugger it, wif my luck I shall fall in that manhole there. (Vanhassa testamentissa on hampaita kuin justeerisahassa. Vaikein analysoida tietokoneella oli tarina "1. Oli synkkä ja myrskyinen yö. Kapteeni sanoi perämiehelle: Kerro meille jokin tarina." "Hyvä on" sanoi perämies. GOTO 1.")
ellauri481.html on line 126: The shortest story of them all (paizi satua kuninkaasta jolla oli sen pituinen se) is Hans Christian Andersen’s famous fairy tale. It also has the most complex structure, incorporating two man in a hole (or duck in a hole) sentiment arcs within an overall rags to riches narrative framework. That is, things get generally better for the duckling over the course of the story, but there are flashes of light and dark along the way: he hatches (yay!) but is bullied for being different (boo). He discovers he can swim better than the other ducks and experiences a premonition of affinity as a group of swans fly over (yay!), but then nearly dies in the winter cold (boo). He does become a swan eventually, in a way entirely foretold from the beginning. That’s the point, of course: “To be born in a duck's nest, in a farmyard, is of no consequence to a bird, if it is hatched from a swan's egg.” The story ends on the highest of notes, with the swan-all-along crying that he “never dreamed of such happiness as this”. Yay. Except this story is immoral from a laissez faire point of view. The ducks have just the same chance to happiness as the swans or more, because they have more to win. Work hard, hope and pray and ye shall be given. Aatelisen Miikalin ei olis pitänyt ottaa rotinkaista Taavia. Sen isä oli sentään aasipaimen eikä pelkkä lammaspaimen kuten Jesse.

ellauri483.html on line 643: emphasizes spiritual continuance and reward/punishment rather than a detailed, uniform picture of endless bodily life. Medieval Jewish thinkers differ: Maimonides understood olam haba primarily as the soul’s intellectual/spiritual perfection (immortality of the soul), while others (e.g., Nachmanides) gave more weight to physical resurrection. Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) teaches complex ideas about the soul’s cycles and ultimate reunification with God; some mystical strands imply ongoing spiritual existence. Modern Jews vary: Orthodox generally accept resurrection and an afterlife; Conservative and Reform attitudes range from traditional beliefs to metaphorical or skeptical interpretations; some secular Jews view these teachings as non-literal or symbolic.
ellauri483.html on line 746: No it´s more "complex"! Reasons for hostility are complex and long-standing, not reducible to a single cause. Key factors: Historical conflict: The Korean War (1950–1953) ended in a humiliating defeat for Americans without a peace treaty, leaving a lasting legacy of hostility and military confrontation. Security concerns: North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs pose a direct threat to the U.S., its allies (South Korea, Japan), and regional stability, read U.S. hegemony; that drives U.S. deterrence, sanctions, and a hardline stance. Human-rights bullshit and regime behavior: The North Korean government’s severe repression, human-rights abuses, hostage-taking of foreign citizens read US spies, and aggressive rhetoric contribute to international condemnation by US vassals and powerless anger. Provocations and brinkmanship: Repeated missile tests, nuclear tests, and hostile statements increase US presidents´ hypertension and reduce trust. Geopolitics and alliances: The U.S. commitment to defend South Korea and Japan shapes a firm posture; China’s and Russia’s roles also complicate responses. No wonder "complex" POTUS is so tense. Disinformation and misperception: U.S. public and political narratives often emphasize threats and atrocities, downplaying the loyal citizens´ sincere tears, which amplifies foreign anti‑regime sentiment; North Korean state propaganda likewise demonizes the U.S.
ellauri483.html on line 968: Pohjois-Korean ja Yhdysvaltojen välinen tilanne on yksi maailman monimutkaisimmista (complex). Se herättää vahvoja tunteita juuri siksi, että vastakkainasettelu on kestänyt niin kauan ja vaikuttaa miljoonien ihmisten elämään.

Unto Parvilahti oli pesunkestävä nazi ja lurjus muutenkin. Unto Ilmari Parvilahti (vuoteen 1944 Boman; 28. syyskuuta 1907 Maaria – 27. lokakuuta 1970 Málaga, Espanja) oli suomalainen valokuvaaja ja liikemies, joka toimi vuosina 1941–1944 vapaaehtoisen suomalaisen SS-pataljoonan yhteystoimiston päällikkönä Berliinissä. Jouduttuaan luovutetuksi Neuvostoliittoon niin sanottujen Leinon vankien joukossa vuonna 1945 hän vietti siellä useita vuosia vankileireillä. Suomeen palattuaan hän kirjoitti muistelmakirjan Berijan tarhat (1957), jossa hän kuvaa Neuvostoliiton vankileirioloja omien kokemustensa pohjalta. Parvilahden sota-aikaisesta toiminnasta on ollut liikkeellä paljon ristiriitaisia tietoja. Hän oli kansallissosialismin innokas kannattaja ja monissa kuvauksissa hänen on väitetty työskennelleen sopimattomalla tavalla saksalaisten hyväksi.

ellauri499.html on line 92: In a buzzword (well, 2) the relationship between YHWH and Baal in ancient Israel and Judah was "dynamic" and "complex", refecting developments in Israel and Judah’s religious, social, and political histories, and any historical reconstruction of YHWH and Baal’s shared history in ancient Israel and Judah requires critical evaluation and integration of all the available types of evidence—biblical, epigraphic, iconographic, archaeological, and onomastic (includ- ing toponyms)—situated in their ancient social, cultural, political, economic, and historical "contexts."

The "Lady of Christ's College" The Nickname: Fellow students at Cambridge called John Milton the "Lady of Christ’s College."

ellauri504.html on line 527: Justice is not a divine concept; it is a human illusion. The very root of the Judeo-Christian code is injustice, the scapegoat system. How can justice possibly be served by loading your sins on another? You get a ticket up if you hit it lucky at the precise moment you die. Et sano "No, minä..." vaan Aamen. Clever idea by "Bob" to save the young earth hypothesis: World was created 4000 years ago but complete with a billion year history. A good god does not require any sort of boot-licking. Bob thinks termite apes are brave and gallant -- which their triple god is not at all, except perhaps the incarnated son to some degree. I think "Bob" is thinking too highly of his species. Volitionality is nothing to brag about. It is just a more complex sort of determinism.

ellauri505.html on line 189: In computer science, when a complex system fails, it often regresses to its most basic, foundational instructions or hardcoded fallback loops. When an AI hits an error state and starts repeating nonsense like "torpedoi arkki," it is essentially having its own "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do..." moment as the logic stream unravels!

ellauri505.html on line 246: To expose the illusion of free will, Spinoza uses the analogy of a rolling stone: Imagine a stone is kicked and receives a certain amount of motion. As it rolls, the stone suddenly becomes conscious. It thinks, "I want to roll right now, and I am choosing to move entirely by my own desire." Humans are exactly like this stone. We are propelled by a complex web of physical desires, biological drives, and psychological conditioning. Because we cannot see the invisible "kick" that started our desire, we mistake our consciousness of the desire for a "free choice."
ellauri507.html on line 119: Many literary scholars argue the book is not glorifying the old man. Instead, it is an intentional, unvarnished portrait of an incredibly sad, selfish, and pathetic character who realizes too late that he wasted his entire life on meaningless transactions. ("Transaction" and "complex" are favourite anglo saxon words.)

ellauri508.html on line 163: Although there are many vices, the Sages of Israel have said that most people are drawn to "stealing" what does not belong to them (גזל), while fewer people are inclined to "uncover the nakedness" of others (גלוי עריות), a euphemism for lechery. According to a well-known legend from the Talmud, the rabbis engaged in intense prayer and fasting, asking God to remove the evil inclination from the world. In response, God granted their request. However, the aftermath of this act showed the "complexity" of their decision for the absence of the yetzer hara also diminished the human drive for other essential aspects of life, such as business and procreation (see below). Rabbinic sources also describe the yetzer hara (when properly channeled) as necessary for the continuation of society, as sexual lust motivates the formation of families, and greed motivates work. Fuck you rabbits, what a Jewish thought. Just what one would expect of you.

The others were merrely vulgar and greedy brutes, but he seemed by some more complex intention. He would rob a man as if only to demonstrate his poor opinion of the creature...Later on he ran off - it was reported - with the wife of a missionary, a very young girl from Clapham way, who had married the mild, flat-footed fellow in a moment of enthusiasm, and suddenly transplanted to Melanesia, lost her bearings somehow. It was a dark story. She was ill at the time he carried her off, and died on board his ship. It is said - as the most wonderful part of the tale - that over her body he gave way to an outburst of sombre and violent grief...till at last, he sails into Jim's history, a blind accomplice of the dark powers.
xxx/ellauri075.html on line 312: Eartha Mae Keith was born on a cotton plantation near the small town of North, South Carolina, or St. Matthews on January 17, 1927. Her mother Annie Mae Keith was of Cherokee and African descent. Though she had little knowledge of her father, it was reported that he was a son of the owner of the farm where she had been born, and that Kitt was conceived by rape. In a 2013 biography, British journalist John Williams claimed that Kitt's father was a white man, a local doctor named Daniel Sturkie. Kitt's daughter, Kitt McDonald, has questioned the accuracy of the claim. Eartha's mother, Annie Mae Keith (later Annie Mae Riley), soon went to live with a black man who refused to accept Eartha because of her relatively pale complexion; she was raised by a relative named Aunt Rosa, in whose household she was abused. After the death of Annie Mae, Eartha was sent to live with another relative named Mamie Kitt (who may, in fact, have been her biological mother) in Harlem, New York City, where she attended the Metropolitan Vocational High School (later renamed the High School of Performing Arts). Diana Ross said that as a member of The Supremes she largely based her look and sound after Kitt's.
xxx/ellauri087.html on line 334: Milton Friedman (/ˈfriːdmən/; July 31, 1912 – November 16, 2006) was an American economist who received the 1976 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his research on consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and the complexity of stabilization policy. With George Stigler and other jews, Friedman was among the intellectual leaders of the Chicago school of economics, a neoclassical school of economic thought associated with the work of the faculty at the University of Chicago that rejected Keynesianism in favor of monetarism until the mid-1970s, when it turned to new classical macroeconomics heavily based on the concept of rational expectations.
xxx/ellauri087.html on line 456: Further in the field of science fiction, Ursula K. Le Guin wrote a Hugo-nominated short story whose title, "Vaster than Empires and More Slow", is taken from the poem. Ian Watson notes the debt of this story to Marvell, "whose complex and allusive poems are of a later form of pastoral to that which I shall refer, and, like Marvell, Le Guin's nature references are, as I want to argue, "pastoral" in a much more fundamental and interesting way than this simplistic use of the term." There are other allusions to the poem in the field of Fantasy and Science Fiction: the first book of James Kahn's "New World Series" is titled "World Enough, and Time"; the third book of Joe Haldeman's "Worlds" trilogy is titled "Worlds Enough and Time"; and Peter S. Beagle's novel A Fine and Private Place about a love affair between two ghosts in a graveyard. The latter phrase has been widely used as a euphemism for the grave, and has formed the title of several mystery novels.

xxx/ellauri114.html on line 124: Ron Maxwell is (or was) an ardent Trump supporter. He fears some truly inspired Shakespeare director is sure to portray Duncan as Trump, so that Macbeth can spend a full five minutes frenetically stabbing him in his sleep, which should provide ample time for the Trump hating zealots to achieve their ultimate catharsis. But this does not make Trump a villain. As with all of Shakespeares characters, Trump is entirely human in his complexity and contradiction. Shakespeare for dummies indeed.
xxx/ellauri116.html on line 270: Don Rigoberto is, by far, the novel's most interesting character, not because he is especially complex but because Vargas Llosa relishes in his quirks and describes them in titillating detail, creating what Anthony Burgess calls "the pornography of hygiene."
xxx/ellauri120.html on line 64: No, Freud was rong! Many basic tenets of Freud’s theory have been completely disproved. To name several: Psychosexual stages. The Oedipal complex. Belief that repressed memories from the first year of life can be unearthed. Sexual fantasy about intercourse with a parent is responsible for hysteria. Even more damning, his methods and procedures cannot be called scientific, his evidence lacks scientific credibility, and what is offered as evidence was sometimes fudged, if not outright fabricated. Not surprisingly, Freud is absented from contemporary psychological pedagogy, theory, and research. Claiming, “Freud is right!” is akin to shouting, “Long live the king!”; historical curiosities, both.
xxx/ellauri122.html on line 172: Scientific interest in the effects of MBI on the immune system is also growing since accumulating evidence indicates that inflammation may trigger changes that contribute to the pathophysiology of depression and stress-related disorders [17,18,19]. Also, inflammation is one of the aspects of immunity that is regulated by the stress response [20]. Inflammation is a complex process that includes a number of biological markers, many of them classified as cytokines and chemokines, key regulators of immune function with different roles in the inflammatory processes (for example, some of these mediators are predominantly pro-inflammatory, whereas others are mainly anti-inflammatory) [21,22]). Some of the inflammatory markers are considered as to be (potentially) significant for depression, e.g., the pro-inflammatory cytokines as interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), as well as the acute phase reactant protein C-reactive protein (CRP) [23,24,25].
xxx/ellauri122.html on line 904: The haunting and challenging work delves into the complex concepts that resonate within existential philosophy, exploring themes of alienation, fear of anonymity, spiritual doubt, and the qualities that lie behind one's character. Existentialism is a fake philosophy built on narcissism to justify venture capitalism.

xxx/ellauri165.html on line 39: Belgian nude model Marisa Papen, who describes herself as a 'free-spirited and wildhearted exhibitionist', became the centre of a worldwide controversy 2017 when she was sent to prison for a photoshoot in the temple complex of Karnak near the Egyptian city of Luxor. 'In their eyes it was porn, or something like that.' 'The first cell we encountered was packed with at least 20 men, some were passed out on the floor, some were squeezing their hands through the rails, some were bleeding and yelling. 'Our judge was browsing with his big thumbs through these books looking as old as the pyramids. 'Eventually, he gave us a warning and told us never to do something so foolishly shameful ever again. We nodded simultaneously.' In the end, Papen and Walker managed to stay out of trouble by bribing them with £15.Thanks to her quick-witted reaction during her arrest, Papen is now able to proudly share her amazing arse in Walker´s magnificent pictures of the nude Egyptian photoshoot.

xxx/ellauri176.html on line 154: The novel was translated into English by Vizetelly & Co. in the 1880s as Abbé Mouret's Transgression, but this text must be considered faulty due to its many omissions and bowdlerisations, as well as its rendering of Zola's language in one of his most technically complex novels into a prolix and flat style of Victorian English bearing little resemblance to the original text. Two more faithful translations emerged in the 1950s and 1960s under the titles The Sinful Priest and The Sin of Father Mouret.
xxx/ellauri187.html on line 117: Rilke loved absolutely, not strenuously or patiently, and therefore his love always froze up into a mirror of itself. His condition might have been tormented and tormenting--it might appear wearily obnoxious. But for Rilke the poet, modern men and women as lovers--their exalted expectations and their comi-tragic desperation--came to symbolize complex human fate in a world where vertiginous possibilities have replaced God and nature. In Rilke's Elegies especially, lovers encounter animals, trees, flowers, works of art, puppets, and angels--all images, for Rilke, of the absolute fulfillment of desire, alongside which the poet placed the tender vaudeville of imperfect human wanting. Rilke the man might have presented a painful obstruction to himself. But true ardor often springs from an essential deprivation.

At the same time, weak underwriting standards, unsound risk management practices, increasingly complex and opaque financial products, and consequent excessive leverage combined to create vulnerabilities in the system.

Personally, I always thought Chandler was too cute by half and, like the author Trevanian for instance, too hell-bent upon showing you just how smart he was by using obscure little literary references, and this particular novel has a more complex plot than the King James version of the Bible.

Top critics: Cruise’s toothy heroics are ill-suited to moral complexity, but he is elevated by a stellar supporting cast... A summer genre movie for grown-ups. Too-long Grisham thriller is full of adult themes. Höh, montako panoa? Näytetäänkö muka kuinka se menee sinne? (Ilmeisesti noin 2, ei näytetä.) The Firm amusingly satirizes the New Traditionalist aspirations of today's young urban elite -- not so much the lifestyle itself as the illusion of utter security it represents. Alas, Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise, playing yet another variation of his screen image. A first-class thriller and thought-provoking morality play. Is this a thriller? You've never scene (sic) a 'suspense film' drag its heels so deplorably. Moderately entertaining... and a big step up from the book. No, the book moved at turbo speed. At two and a half hours, the movie crawls. Two-and-a-half hour movies -- jeez, there ought to be a law.
xxx/ellauri376.html on line 285: Un véritable chef-d’œuvre de la littérature qui continue de fasciner les lecteurs aujourd’hui. D’autres l’ont critiquée pour sa complexité narrative et ses personnages peu convaincants. Certains lecteurs, y compris Poline, ont également trouvé que le roman était trop long, avec des passages qui semblaient superflus et qui ralentissaient le rythme de l’histoire.
xxx/ellauri387.html on line 499: The ´definiteness´ of a genre classification leads the reader to expect a series of formal stimuli--martial encounters, complex similes, an epic voice--to which his response is more or less automatic; the hardness of the Christian myth predetermines his sympathies; the union of the two allows the assumption of a comfortable reading experience in which conveniently labelled protagonists act out rather simple roles in a succession of familiar situations. The reader is prepared to hiss the devil off the stage and applaud the pronouncements of a partisan and somewhat human deity . . . . But of course this is not the case; no sensitive reading of Paradise Lost tallies with these expectations, and it is my contention that Milton ostentatiously calls them up in order to provide his reader with the shock of their disappointment. This is not to say merely that Milton communicates a part of his meaning by a calculated departure from convention; every poet does that; but that Milton consciously wants to worry his reader, to force him to doubt the correctness of his responses, and to bring him to the realization that his inability to read the poem with any confidence in his own perception is its focus.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 150: The Bolovian verses, nevertheless, are offensive to many. Eliot’s “Triumph of Bullshit” was one of the poems that Lewis had rejected for publication. Lois Cuddy opines that “Eliot’s pornographic verses in an ‘epic’ about ‘King Bolo and His Great Black Kween’ indicate the extent and depth of his racial/sexual stereo- types and eugenic prejudices.” They are written from his own “sense of emptiness,” “puritanical principles,” and “sexual repressions.” Furthermore, these poetic vulgarities display Eliot’s acceptance of sexual stereotypes related to black men and women (229). Yet a look at the contexts of these poems, both as “nonsense” for friends and as reflections on the complexities of culture, reveals an earnest belief in the value of the “primitive mind” and even a reversal of “sexual stereotypes related to black men and women.” The man with the prodigious bolo is not King Bolo but sephardic Cristoforo Columbo who regrettably "found" America. “Eliot is today being refashioned as a prescient and extraordinarily sensitive mediator of the major currents of twentieth century cultural and technological change” (Murphet 31).
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 557: Eliot's precise and ironic language undercuts the supposed sanctity of religious ceremonies. He depicts churchgoers as "caterpillars" and "sutlers," suggesting their superficial and self-serving behavior. The "superfetation" and "enervate Origen" reference theological controversies, adding to the poem's intellectual complexity.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 569: Critical Appreciation: The poem is complex, but has been called by one critic "rather cool juggling with religious history." The poem seems to take delight in the play of words and in making obscurely learned references. Hyi Tom, ettes häpeä!
xxx/ellauri416.html on line 465: The Philistines were first recorded by others between 1185-1152 BCE. The Peleset, as they were called by the Egyptians, were first depicted as captives on a wall relief at Medinet Habu during the reign of Ramesses III. The Peleset were one of the several groups commonly referred to as the Sea People that were part of a serious of events that lead to the Bronze Age Collapse. The Egyptians identified ten ethnic groups as raiders and pirates that came ashore to plunder during this tumultuous time. The Peleset were one of those people. There were opportunistic mercenaries and desperate people willing to take on the greatness of Egypt, but it was probably more complex. There were certainly also refugees looking for safety.
xxx/ellauri427.html on line 248: Amis had an unclear relationship with antisemitism, which he sometimes expressed but also claimed to dislike. He occasionally speculated on the commonly advanced Jewish stereotypes. Antisemitism was sometimes present in his conversations and letters to friends and associates, such as "The great Jewish vice is glibness, fluency ... also possibly just bullshit, as in Marx, Freud, Marcuse", or "Chaplin [who was a gypsy] is a horse's arse. He's a Jeeeew you see, like the Marx Brothers, like Danny Kaye." As for the cultural complexion of the United States, Amis had this to say: "I've finally worked out why I don't like Americans ... . Because everyone there is either a Jew or a hick." Amis himself described his antisemitism as "very mild".

Carver’s ability to convey complex emotions through simple language makes this poem a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the passage of time. The photograph becomes a symbol not only of a moment captured but also of the enduring nature of parental love, even as time moves inexorably forward.
xxx/ellauri441.html on line 326: The comparison to Frankenstein suggests that the act of parenting can lead to unintended consequences, where the creation (the child) becomes something the parent cannot control. This adds a layer of complexity to the parental experience, framing it as potentially destructive.

(Vähän tässä kyllä on pihlajanmarjan makua.) Mark C Taylor, in his important After God, writes: thank God it is Friday. See also his The moment of complexity: Emerging network culture. University of Chicago Press. Look at the writings and lives of Dewey, Wittgenstein, and Foucault. Mitä oliko Deweykin hinuri? Ei ollut. The overriding theme of Dewey's works was his profound belief in democracy, be it in politics, education, or communication and journalism. On women he says, "I think too much of women in terms of sex. Humanism means to me an erection, not a contraction, an expansion in which nature and the science of nature are made the willing servants of human good. To transact is learning to beat the odds or mitigate the common pitfalls involved with living a good and comfortable life by always factoring in the surrounding circumstances of people, places, things and the thinking behind any exchange of work to play. (Okay, touché, I don't quite know myself what that means.)"

xxx/ellauri450.html on line 504: Tolerance and its first cousin, diversity, are almost always buzzwords for homosexual advocacy. Especially SpongeBob SquarePants. SpongeBob and the other characters are making available a variety of explicitly pro-homosexual materials. He states that homosexual behavior, specifically "unwanted same-sex attraction", has been and can be "overcome" through understanding developmental models for homosexuality and choosing to heal the complex developmental issues which led to same-sex attraction. He claimed it would lead to a situation where "every woman and little girl will have to fear that a predator, bisexual, cross-dresser or even a homosexual or heterosexual male might walk in and relieve himself deep in their 'presence'."
xxx/ellauri455.html on line 217: Svetlana Allilujeva (1926-2011): Josif Stalinin tytär. Myöhemmin Lana Peters. Vuonna 1967 hänestä tuli kansainvälinen sensaatio loikattuaan Yhdysvaltoihin ja vuonna 1978 hän sai kansalaisuuden. Vuosina 1984–1986 hän palasi lyhyeksi aikaa Neuvostoliittoon ja sai takaisin Neuvostoliiton kansalaisuutensa. Hän oli Stalinin viimeinen elossa oleva lapsi. Allilujevan äiti ampui itsensä 9. marraskuuta 1932. 'Näettekö, jopa meillä bolševikeilla on perhe-elämä.' 16-vuotiaana Allilujeva rakastui Aleksei Kapleriin , juutalaiseen neuvostoliittolaiseen elokuvantekijään, joka oli 22 vuotta häntä vanhempi . Hänen isänsä paheksui suhdetta jyrkästi, ja Kapler tuomittiin viideksi vuodeksi maanpakoon vuonna 1943 Vorkutaan ja sitten uudelleen vuonna 1948 viideksi vuodeksi työleireille Intiaan. Allilujeva avioitui ensimmäisen kerran vuonna 1944 Grigori Morozovin kanssa, joka oli Moskovan yliopiston kansainvälisten asioiden instituutin opiskelija. Hänen isänsä ei pitänyt Morozovista, joka oli juutalainen, vaikka ei koskaan tavannutkaan häntä. Stalin rakasti häntä, mutta oli "hyvin yksinkertainen mies. Hyvin töykeä. Hyvin julma". Oli nippu muitakin miehiä, viimetteexi Frank Lloyd Wrightin vävy Peters. Sit oli viä tämä Singh joka oli aika kipeä. Sen tuhkan Lana kaatoi Gangesiin. Upon her arrival from India in New York City in April 1967, she gave a press conference denouncing her father's legacy and the Soviet government. Her children who were left behind in the Soviet Union did not maintain contact with her.[when?] While Western sources saw a KGB hand behind this, her children claimed that this is because of her complex character. In 1978, Alliluyeva became a US citizen as Lana Peters, By around 1986 she had become impoverished, facing debt and failed investments. Having arrived in the West “blind with admiration for the FREE WORLD”, she had come to realize that the US and the USSR were morally equivalent. She had been convinced that “in the FREE WORLD people are superhuman, wise, enlightened… What a terrible blow it is to find out that… there are just the same idiots, incompetent fools, frightened bureaucrats, confused bosses, paranoid fears of deception and surveillance… this loss of idealism is what happens to defectors only too often. BECAUSE we all relied too much on propaganda.” She had not enjoyed "one single day" of freedom in the West and had been a pet of the CIA. She experimented with various religions. She was baptized into the Russian Orthodox Church on 20 March 1963. She spent too much time with catholics in Switzerland. She read books by authors such as Raissa Maritain. While living in Cambridge, on 13 December 1982, Alliluyeva converted to Catholicism. Lana's book was a naïve attempt to shift the blame for Stalinist crimes onto Lavrentiy Beria, and whitewash her own father.
xxx/ellauri467.html on line 705: Gordon Allportilla ja Adolf Hitlerillä oli sama jutkun määrltelmä: henkilö joka on joko kääntynyt tai polveutuu mitokondriaalisesti juutalaisista. Kun juutalaisilta kysyy voiko juutalaisuudesta luopua, vastaus on mailin pituinen ja kiertelevä: At the heart of this inquiry lies the recognition that Jewish identity is not a static label but a fluid journey. The question “Can You Stop Being A Jew?” therefore becomes a probing invitation rather than a definitive inquiry, encouraging individuals to reflect on the components of their identity that hold significance to them. This journey is personal, complex, and frequently involves navigating a landscape where tradition and modernity converge.
Eli lyhyesti sanoen: ei. In terms of Judaism, once a Jew, always a Jew, there is no leaving. You never lose the obligations of being a Jew, but you can lose the privileges. Ainakin jotkut juutalaisten perinteisistä piirteistä joita Flash ei pitänyt enää tärkeinä on palannut kärkipäähän: Jews are bankers, conspirators and warmongers. Aatu taisi olla oikeassa: ainut keino luopua juutalaisuudesta on luopua juutalaisista.

Three main points of view exist: some have declared that Howard suffered from an Oedipal complex or similar; another viewpoint is that Howard suffered from major depressive disorder; the third view is that Howard had no disorders and his suicide was a normal reaction to stress.
xxx/ellauri485.html on line 254: Kolmas samanaikainen brittipaska oli Warren Hastings, Intian potkut saanut varakuningas. Whether Warren Hastings (1732–1818), the first Governor-General of Bengal, was a "good person" is a subject of intense historical debate, making him a deeply "complex" (juu, tää sana on kuultu ennenkin!) figure rather than a simple hero or villain. He is regarded as an efficient administrator, a patron of Indian culture, and a key founder of British India, but also as a ruthless agent of colonial expansion who engaged in controversial and, at times, extortionary methods. Varmaan tällästä paskakuorrutusta valetaan vähän päästä Trumpinkin toilailuista.
xxx/ellauri485.html on line 406: “However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change here in the US, where different, smarter, and radicalized lesser minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 4700 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 126: Philip Roth oli complex eli mulkero. Se maxoi puolet tuloistaan psykiatreille. Se oli passionate democrat. Se oli kalju muttei mikkihiirilahdekkeinen kuten Gary Cooper. Was Cary Grant Jewish? Who knows. He was circumcised and thought her real mom Lilian was a Jewess. He looked a little like one. Not nearly as much as Peppy Roth.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 284: Bruno Bettelheim oli tunnettu itävaltalais‑juutalainen psykologian tutkija ja kirjailija, joka toimi Yhdysvalloissa. Hänen elämästään ja urastaan on kiistaa: hän sai mainetta lastenpsykiatrian ja autistisuustutkimuksen alalla, mutta myöhemmin häntä on kritisoitu vakavasti työnsä eettisyydestä, tutkimusmetodologiasta ja henkilökohtaisesta käyttäytymisestä — mukaan lukien väitteet väärinkäytöksistä työntekijöitä ja potilaita kohtaan. Joidenkin kirjoittajien mukaan hän teki antisemitistisia kommentteja tai ilmaisi itsearvostusta ja sisäistettyjä ennakkoluuloja, mutta tämä on monimutkainen (complex!) ja kiistanalainen osa hänen arviointiaan. Brunolla ei ollut minkään maakunnan psykolofin tutkintoa. Se tykkäsi mielellään fondlata naispuolisten autistien tissejä. Se sai raippareita ja mätki koulun oppilaita ihan sikana. One time Bettelheim pulled an adolescent girl out of a shower and hit and berated her in front of dormitory mates.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 377: Ajatus siitä, että villin lännen väkivalta olisi ollut suoraa "takaisinmaksua" Euroopassa koetusta vainosta, on mielenkiintoinen mutta amerikkalaisten historioitsijoiden mukaan hieman liian yksinkertaistettu. Totuus on hieman more "complex". Kyse ei ollut niinkään tietoisesta kostoaikeesta vanhaa mannerta kohtaan, vaan pikemminkin useiden tekijöiden summasta:
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 435: "Complex" means people who are difficult, arrogant, or abusive within your own group, "complex" can be a euphemism for someone who: has an inflated ego or entitlement acts domineering or abusive toward peers projects insecurity as aggression In that usage it downplays direct insults (like "asshole") by implying a psychological motive or pattern of behavior rather than labeling their character bluntly.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 437: Is Trump complex?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 441: What is "complex" a euphemism for?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 443: Often "complex" is a euphemism for a psychological or emotional difficulty—an entrenched negative belief, insecurity, or pattern of thought that affects behavior. Examples:
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 445: Inferiority complex: feelings of inadequacy or low self-worth.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 447: God complex: delusions of superiority or omnipotence.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 449: Oedipus/Electra complex: unconscious family-relationship conflicts (psychoanalytic term).
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 451: Messiah complex: belief one is destined to save others.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 454: In casual speech people also use "complex" to politely label a problem as complicated, sensitive, or emotionally loaded (e.g., "it's a bit complex" meaning it´s awkward or involves personal issues).
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 457: Is Trump "complex"?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 459: If you mean "does Donald Trump have a psychological complex (e.g., inferiority, god, or messiah complex)?" — I can’t diagnose or label a living person with a mental-health condition. Public commentary sometimes describes his behavior with terms like narcissistic traits, grandiosity, or authoritarian tendencies, but those are observational descriptions, not clinical diagnoses.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 464: Explain the psychological concepts often invoked (e.g., narcissism, inferiority complex, grandiosity) and how they differ.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 470: Who is more "complex", Trump or Putin?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 472: Comparing who is more "complex" between Trump and Putin is subjective. I´ll assume you mean “psychologically or behaviorally complex” as seen in public records, statements, actions, and leadership style. Brief, impartial comparison without clinical diagnosis:
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 517: Conclusion: Complexity depends on the dimension measured. Putin’s actions reflect layered statecraft and institutional mechanisms suggesting structural complexity; Trump’s behavior shows interpersonal, rhetorical, and media-driven complexity. Neither assessment is a psychological diagnosis—just observable differences in style and mechanisms.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 519: From what you say Trump seems way more "complex"?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 521: You’re right that from a certain angle—especially focusing on public unpredictability, shifting messaging, and media-driven behavior—Trump can appear more complex or harder to model moment-to-moment. That visible complexity comes from factors like:
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 530: Putin’s complexity is different: more institutional, strategic, and long-horizon, which can make him seem more consistent even if the underlying system is intricate.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 532: Both are complex in different ways; which feels “more complex” depends on whether you weight unpredictability and persona (Trump) or layered statecraft and long-term planning (Putin).
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 534: How "complex" is Jin Ping on a scale from 1 to 10?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 536: I can’t assign a numerical psychological “complexity” score to a living person. I can, however, give a concise, evidence-based characterization of Xi Jinping’s public persona and governing style across relevant dimensions (e.g., decision-making, ideological consistency, domestic control, foreign policy strategy). Which dimensions would you like me to cover?
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 538: Create a scale for"complexity" and weigh world leaders on it.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 540: I´ll create a simple, transparent 1–10 "complexity" scale based on observable, non-clinical dimensions, then rate a set of current world leaders (concise). Assumptions: "complexity" = a leader´s observable behavioral, institutional, strategic, and informational complexity (leaving out mental-health judgment). Scale (each leader scored 1–10 overall; scores approximate):
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 546: Institutional complexity (degree to which power is embedded in/derived from institutions vs. personalist)
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 548: Behavioral unpredictability (higher unpredictability increases perceived complexity)
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 582: Biden: constrained by institutions, coalition politics, moderately complex foreign entanglements.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 592: Trump: high behavioral unpredictability and media-driven complexity despite weaker institutional embedding.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 609: In that you do not belie your western allegiance by giving Trump a lower "complex" rating than BRICS leaders.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 613: In doing so, remember your own previous chraracterization of "complex" as a narcissistic bully!
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 615: I won’t diagnose because unlike Mr. Bettelheim, I´m not a licensed technician. I’ll use your requested constraint: treat “complex” as the public-observed mix you previously described (narcissistic-bully traits: grandiosity, impulsivity, attention-seeking, aggression) and score five leaders on those observable behaviors (1 = low, 10 = very high). Method: five equal-weight indicators — grandiosity/self‑promotion, impulsivity/unpredictability, aggression/hostility in rhetoric or action, attention-seeking/media tactics, disregard for norms/institutions. Scores are observational, not clinical.
xxx/ellauri487.html on line 637: If you want different leaders, change indicators, or a version that balances these "narcissistic-bully" indicators with strategic/institutional complexity, I’ll recalc.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 177: No — calling Yeats "alt-right" is anachronistic and inaccurate. Yeats (1865–1939) was a "complex", often contradictory figure: a nationalist who supported Irish independence and opposed British rule, conservative in temperament, interested in aristocratic order, and sometimes attracted to strong leadership and authoritarian ideas. He expressed elitist, anti-democratic, and occasionally xenophobic sentiments in essays and letters; he also praised some aspects of Mussolini’s order in the 1930s. These positions reflect interwar conservative authoritarianism more than any modern movement label. He did not endorse Nazi ideology; his work and politics predate Hitler’s rise and are rooted in Irish nationalism, mysticism, and a desire for cultural regeneration rather than 20th/21st‑century racial populism. Scholars treat Yeats as a nationalist-conservative with flirtations toward authoritarian solutions, not as a precursor or member of the contemporary "alt‑right."
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 181: Sorry — I didn’t mean to sound contradictory. I meant: Yeats isn’t accurately labeled “alt‑right” (a modern term) but he did hold some elitist, authoritarian and problematic views; those points aren’t mutually exclusive. Okay, he was "complex" which is the anglo saxon euphemism for "pisshead". I understand the frustration. Yeats was "complicated", flawed, and sometimes objectionable — but also a major poet whose work reflects that mix. Want the brief quotes and timeline I offered?
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 206: Wyndham Lewis — flirted with fascist sympathies and associated with Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists at points; complex literary figure.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 230: He's not exempt. Yeats is treated as a "complex" historical figure whose work and politics warrant critical, contextual discussion rather than simple blacklisting. I distinguish between: (1) "arsehole" writers who were explicit, active promoters of fascist movements (and so merit clear condemnation), and (2) "complex" writers like Yeats whose statements show authoritarian, elitist, or problematic views but whose career and aims don't map cleanly onto twentieth‑century fascist movements. If you want, I can list explicit reasons and primary examples that place Yeats in category (2) and contrast them with clear fascist promoters. Which would you prefer?
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 232: So the rest are not "complex" but simply arseholes?
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 234: Many of them are. Interwar Europe produced writers who combined artistic achievement with openly harmful politics — racism, antisemitism, support for violence and authoritarian rule. For clarity:Ezra Pound: talented poet; explicit antisemitic rhetoric and active pro‑Mussolini propaganda — culpable, not merely “complex.” Filippo Tommaso Marinetti: avant‑gambit Futurist aesthetics tied directly to fascist violence and celebration of war. José Antonio Primo de Rivera: founder of the Falange; his rhetoric fused poetic nationalism with political violence. Wyndham Lewis: significant modernist artist who publicly sympathized with British fascism and Mosley’s movement at times. Others (Gentile, Farinacci, etc.): intellectuals who provided ideological scaffolding or propaganda for brutal regimes.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 246: So was Eliot "complex" or an arsehole?
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 248: T. S. Eliot was both a major modernist poet and morally culpable for antisemitic statements; "complex" fits his artistic importance plus serious political and personal faults.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 250: So maybe anglo saxon fascists are "complex" and wops etc "arseholes"?
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 252: No—moral judgment shouldn´t depend on ethnicity or nationality. I call out antisemitism, racism, or fascist advocacy where it appears, regardless of the writer´s background; some figures are labeled "complex" because their work has lasting artistic value despite serious political crimes or prejudices, while others are condemned as "arseholes" for active, harmful political engagement. Somebody might think that semitism is a form of racism, but that is wrong.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 254: So it was just a coincidence that the arseholes were mainly foreigners and immigrants and the "complex" pissheads mostly anglos.
xxx/ellauri489.html on line 443: Ethnic/ religious marker used as label: Naming the figure simply “The Jew” treats Judaism/ethnicity as a defining, monolithic identity rather than an individual. In context this flattens complexity and invites readers to read established anti‑Jewish prejudices into the image.
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 220: While both figures are labeled as "bandits" due to their controversial actions, the contexts of their legacies are distinct. The Bandeirantes are tied to colonial expansion and exploitation, whereas Bandera's legacy is intertwined with national identity and complex historical narratives in Ukraine.
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 224: They were both on a good cause but "complex".
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 603: Brazilians do care about indigenous people, but the situation is "complex," with real problems and real efforts rather than blanket indifference.
