Hegel nos ensina que a contradição não é um defeito da realidade, mas sua essência.
- Slavoj Žižek
A ideologia não é simplesmente um erro ou ilusão; 
ela é a própria estrutura que organiza nossa realidade.

Memory of moss

Peat holds buried breath
A thousand years press downward
Moss forgets nothing
I don't save, I don't rehabilitate. I mean, I don't even educate, really. Actually, the most I do is a two-hour holiday in the head. A brief respite from a life of concrete, steeped in spice.

Tomorrow's tomorrow.
KEITH
That is not the myth of Pandora. The earliest and most accepted version of the myth of Pandora is found in Hesiod, who tells us it's Prometheus who steals fire. Not Epimetheus. And it's not what Pandora releases that's the punishment, it's Pandora herself. Pandora is the first woman fashioned of clay by the gods. 

What Dan so assiduously omits is that Pandora is made of the self-same clay that the jar is made of. The jar with the spirits in. 

DAN
The vessel doesn't matter. It's what inside that counts.

KEITH
Only the vessel does matter, though, doesn't it, Dan? Because the jar is made of clay, and a box is not. 

Dan is deliberately choosing to sell us the false version.

DAN
Ok, right. Why am I doing that, Keith?

KEITH
Because of what the myth is really saying. The jar and Pandora are one and the same, ergo it says woman is the cause of all man's ills.

Don't you think we deserve to be in relationships where we can both be exactly who we are while still moving forward?

I used to think I was anti-establishment, but as it turns out, I'm establishment.
- Joanne in Nobody Wants This, S02E05
And that's the point of faith, right? It doesn't exist in the plans we make. It exists in the unknown. Otherwise, tough decisions would be easy. There'd be no risk.

Et toi mon cœur pourquoi bats-tu

Comme un guetteur mélancolique
j'observe la nuit et la mort

As for forgiveness and mercy, I don't know. I've prayed for an answer, some kind of guidance, and all I've gotten in return was silence.

What were they expecting a priest to do at these mass casualty events?

TOM
Counsel. When things go terribly wrong, people want to know why God let it happen.

Outra vez e sempre

O arapaçu trama,
espiralando o silêncio, 
um festim velado.
