As saul' ting mer' cy. What's the opposite of a hagiography? Some thoughts about budo. September 10, 2013.

There was a man called Thera, who, although commanded to go west, settled en route in Mesopotamia. God then spoke to Thera's son, Abraham. Familiar to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike, telling him to leave his kin and his land, to go some place God had decided to give him and his descendants. The well-known stories of Abraham and his wife Sarah are said to come from different traditions sewn together and edited in episodes taking a few chapters of Genesis. One can't but see the shadow of the time Abrah...
