Here I am reading the paper that Was accepted to the conference at the University of Toronto, Negativity, Pessimisms, and Sad Affects in the Study of Religion Conference. Next week, April 18-19, 2019. Right before THE GREAT ZIZEK PETERSON DEBATE!!
I just realized I said the name of the conference wrong in the video 🙂
I am not able to attend, though, so I made a video.
Note – the negation of the speculative negative theology can appear as a philosophical venture of arguing philosophical primacy as not a religious effort. We can call a move of bad faith, the “sickness” which permeates some avenues of philosophical effort; that is, a sickness unto death. Hence the problem Highlighted in my essay. See also this essay. This is to say that the problem does not dissipate through philosophy but is rather suspened, which then perpetuates real psycho-social aggravations.
My paper can be viewed at Academia.edu HERE. Even though I wanted to post the paper with resources, it looks like it has posted without them.
And HERE is the Researchgate listing, with references.
(Im pretty sure I formatted the paper incorrectly. Oh well. Learn by living, learn by trying.)
Maybe someone will want to give me some pointers.
