Bible

The influence of biblical empowerment sees the awful side of life but does not listen to it. It removes itself by making daily life into an encyclopedia of events to learn from, and justifications for why things are the way they are. The events of daily life are rehearsals of the icons of the good and bad, their interpretation has been reduced to a catechism, interpreatation by something we might call retroductive reasoning. The particulars of experience are obeserved but do not expand knowledge, instead they feed back into a rigid personalised metaphysical landscape loosely informed by the axioms of religion, continually confirmed suspicions, superstitions and prejudices. and local fears.
