kyburgAh, mixes. Yay. It all started with needing to have the Christmas Mix done, then ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
motorbike dared me to do one...and then she posted one that was nothing but covers of 'Everybody Hurts' - so I got wicked and retaliated.
I apologize up front for the lack of format consistency. You're gonna get what I got...mp3, cda, etc. Apologies. You need a password, you're 'welcome' -
The Christmas Mix - guaranteed to have stuff in it you won't find anywhere else for good reason....
The 'Kant Help You' Dare Mix - basis for this was a random Wiki pull - and after distilling it down to a few paragraphs, this is basically what Lawrence Stepelevich was all (mostly) about:
The conclusions were both simple and shocking: the Christ of the gospels was a myth generated out of the messianic longings of the Jews. Jesus actually existed, and his personality drew upon him the mantle of the Christ, but beyond that, little more can be said of Jesus. Finally, mankind is the actual Christ insofar as it is its own savior. It is this last optimistic, humanistic, and irreverent thesis which reveals Strauss as a Young Hegelian. The incarnation of the Logos, the Geist, was not restricted to the particularity of Jesus but was received into the total human race. The messianic ideal of a redemption of mankind
does not squander its fullness on one individual in order to be stingy lo everybody else. Its desire, rather, is to distribute its wealth among the multiplicity of individuals ... Is not the idea of the unity of divine and human natures a real one in a more lofty sense when I regard the entire human race as its realization than if I select one man as its realization? Is not the incarnation of God from eternity more true than an incarnation limited to one point in time?"[22]
In commenting upon this passage, William Brazill summarizes -- "as there could be no man without God, so there could be no God without man. Humanity was the Christ."[23]
Go fer it. Yes, that's 'Existential Blues' you hear, along with some vintage Toy Matinee.
And for the last? I retaliate against all those covers of 'Everybody Hurts' with more versions...of 'I've Got You Under My Skin' - which is Creepy As Hell
You want them all? Okay.
Ghad, there's a buttload of things to do.
