FunBuildingAChristianCivilizationJoinUs
Here’s how we start.
E. T. Hall, in ‘The Silent Language,’ made a 10x10 chart of
culture. Here it is. Call lthis a
culture house.
To build a Christian culture house, we might start with the
books of the Bible, because each book was written at a specific time for a
specific reason to help build the house of GodTrinity, the church. These were written for our nurture and
admonition. The house represented
differed at different times. Tabernacle,
Temple , etc. I
propose to use the 49-book Bible, in a 7x7 grid, put forth, for wisdom, by
James Jordan in ‘Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament’: http://www.biblicalhorizons.com/biblical-horizons/no-80-rethinking-the-order-of-the-old-testament/
22 Old and 27 New make 49, and in his works he shows how these
seven 7s are echoes, each one, of the Days of Creation.
That is on page 3.
Hall’s work is copyrighted, and I cannot put it in this. You might find it online, or by looking
inside the Amazon copy, or it is on sale inexpensively, or in libraries.

What blocks build a
Christian Culture House, then? Let’s
look at Rosenstock’s thinking about the Revolutions of the West, summarized by Gardner
New types of person
New types of speech
New institutions
We could also add…
New words
New memes
New inventions
New songs
New books
New tools
New Imperatives
--Gardner
This started during
Ecclesiastes Sheba
Here is the key.
We are not building
a Christian Culture House of only 2 dimensions.
We add to what first
comes to us as an appropriate
building block
[and we use all
causes, not just material—the bricks and wood.
We include formal, the blueprint.
And efficient, the workers. And final, the purpose of the building].
I will add comments
on a page after the 7x7.
And the 7x7 will be
more than one page.
Conjective truth
(McCloskey, ‘Bourgeois Dignity,’ is truth arrived at in conversation.
Let us aim for
conjective truth.

Well, the last 6
blocks are 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49—I am defeated by computer graphics. I’ll have
to write on the bottom when I come up with something, as I go through the
calendar year by year.
44—Deut. How To Make
Your Communities Better/PellaSquared. 45—Leviticus The House Of Singing
Times/Calendar Of Peace Prejected. 49—Exodus The Symphony Of Comprehensive
History Interactive
Put the new meme,
type of person, type of speech , or organization in the space.
The 7x7 will expand
as descriptions are made.
--For Proverbs, yes colaboramorate, and laboramoratory but
end up in 31, the church as Lady Wisdom
--For Ecclesiastes, Vanity, yes, but in the end ‘Fear God
and Keep His Commandments (guard, reverence), for…Judge’—that is, optimistic
exchatology (a felicitous mis-typing, ‘x’ is Xrist!, and is ‘from’ what was
empty?) , and emptiness is filled by BledsAlinskyoevey clubs. Oy Vey—convey the awe—that you owe? That it’s a ‘we’? Wait, grief is the START of
getting away, it’s the confession? oy vey
/oi ˈvā/
exclamation
1.
indicating dismay or grief.
From Bledsoe’s ‘Can Saul Alinsky Be Saved?’ A new
application of atype of speech, logomachy?, such that Bledsoe encloses Alinsky,
and they start out ‘we’ ‘vey—as inconvey’ from an owing, the history Bledsoe
relates, a dismay, but a going. From that, move to the sequences of Rosenstock
and others.
Now, 3-dimensionally, we build up from
what first comes to us.
What do we use?
In sevens, we could use Beatitudes, which might be 8!
Also the 5 Cs of Call, Cleanse, Consecrate, Commune, Commission.
Jordan’s Law, Lyric, Evaluation, Fact, New Torah.
Rosenstock’s Imperative, Subjective, Narrative, Objective, Planetary
Service.
[See Gardner
--
How this would work
will be developed, but for the
Bledsalinskyo(!w)evey
Clubs, taking that as a Rosenstockian Imperative, we would work through the
subjective (do the AA-like thing for myself first0 and then narratively tell it
as Bledsoe did in ‘Can Saul Alinsky Be Saved,’ and then make it objective by
taking it to others and to the world, in Planetary Service?
