Reading David Zahl’s amazing trilogy: “Seculousity”, “Low Anthropology” and now “The Big Relief” https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B00R0ZTPWM?ccs_id=f6904d6e-c5ca-47cd-b381-d567818abf99 I was struck by the intensity of translation his works evidence. These books are uniquely targeted to each human, rather than the World of Church. David Zahl applies a rigorous lens of clear expression focus, organization, language and cadence that is conversational, direct and humorous.

When architects talk about AI, it triggers me into a Groundhog Day–like reliving of the dire warnings against computer-aided design (CAD) in the 1980s: The field would be decimated, rendered obsolete. But just as CAD was not design, artificial intelligence is not intelligence. Some architects decry the darkness of impending technology to explain the bland buildings that are carpet-bombing our landscape. This design malaise is not due to how these buildings were drawn.

Creaking Bones, Blurring Vision, and the Giver of Life Growing old, you have two choices. First, you can accept the decay and degradation of your body. Second, you can “rage, rage against the dying of the light.”Is it faithless human hope that causes rage against death? If we are living to join God in our death, why should we, I, care so much about pushing death as far away as possible?

Why isn’t death a sacrament? Defining the human acts of Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation, Reconciliation, Anointing the Sick, Marriage and Holy Orders as connections of/following God is this essence of religion. As organized religion changes from definition to discovery in the world of explosive understanding perhaps the only cultural sacrament left is Marriage.

This is not about politics. Politics, like architecture, simply reflects humanity. The culture we create and the architecture we build is not caused by the politician, or the architect. The wave of our collective generation uses the people who “lead” as embodying who we want to be. The obvious center of who we want to be today is the figure who dominates the world in both support and loathing – and not much in between.
