Wait, I can still edit that one. Looks like it is a timer after all.

I don't see the button to edit it for some reason.
EDIT: I can edit this post however
I noticed that we can only edit the most recent post in each thread. Isn't that intentional?

Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue
Excellent exposition ! Thank you, eish, for telling us all this. I thought i had read something about the instruction of the hesychasts to look at the stomach. That struck me as so WEIRD ! What do the Fathers mean by that ? How could one be performing a daily task yet keeping the gaze fixed on the ...

Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue

Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue
Oh, I never knew that ! What an arrogant thought - to inject oneself into a painting of that scene - or as any holy figure. I had no idea this might have happened, but it makes sense, though the Renaissance was of course the opposite of a pious time. Self-insertions were the same phenomenon t...

Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue
Yes, also Renaissance painters like Raphael always used women they knew as models for their depictions of the Mother of God. I always thought it was dismaying ! Not only that, the artists would paint themselves, their rich patrons, and relatives of the patrons. Usually these would be minor figu...
