But I understand that you see the tragedy in Mark . . . but the real tragedy is not that he was crucified but that he went back to Galilee again, happier than a pig in shit, as some of us here would say. But then again, I think that some of us here have been watching these gophers for too long and begin to think like them, in that their 'final stand' is made when they go underground and let the good times roll.

Aristotle would have this to be a rout between the ego and imago wherein imago is the winner with the ego crucified.

More specifically, I see the original passion narrative (Mark 14:1-15:39) as a Tragedy.

The anticipated appearance in Galilee belong not to the passion narrative, nor to pMark but to Mark, the last stage of composition.

Yes the end is added later and they just loaded her up some more and did a very good job of sophistry. And if noting else, you must give them credit for their sense of humor.

Similar to this, I once took an ethics class (just for fun), and the Margareth Mead scandal was a topic there. It had nothing to do with Margareth herself, but whether or not those 20 honorary PhD's she had received for her "Coming to Age in Samao," should be withdrawn or not. That was the question to be discussed (I am sure it was 20 in our course).

What I learned from that was that Greek 'sophistry,' Samoa 'tall tale telling' and 'Roman Catholicism' was all the same in that we must 'catch the lie' in it.
