Somebody tell my fam I got a gambling problem.
Wine is not discovered but made: it is an artifact that can be appraised that can be appraised aesthetically
Taken as hypotheses, religious claims do very badly. Yet the striking fact is that this does not worry Christians.
The wine itself has aesthetic value; but what it is for a wine to have aesthetic value cannot be understood without making reference to the experience to tasting it
Would it be better if religions were to disappear? I have no idea. Since I do not have any confidence in the association of truth with virtue, I am not sure if the world would be a better place if people believed more true things. But what is undeniable is that we cannot understand our own culture unless we recognise that it was formed, for good or bad, as a Christian culture. It's an illusion that we could somehow recover a human essence which is independent of the way it was created by culture.
Unlike art which contains a message, wine conveys nothing, it has no intellectual or cognitive content
Catholicism is the most philosophical branch of Christianity.
Man is a fugitive from nature.
I would describe our band "Paper Walls' growth as the natural evolution for anyone the age of 25 to 27, but with "Paper Walls' we focused on the best of what Yellowcard had to offer from our previous work. Meaning we took the energy we had from Ocean Avenue and blended that with that sharp rock edge and all the different sonic evolutions we have on "Lights and Sounds', and we basically mashed them together. So what we have on "Paper Walls' is basically the finest Yellowcard sounds we have to offer.
The noble style immobilizes its subjects.
The only way a relationship will last is if you see it as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.
