For the record, I "liked" this post for two reasons:

(1) Literally yesterday, when I was looking for a photo I took this summer and came across the memories of my visit with you, I thought to myself, "I wonder when Benji will publish something again?" I'm glad you scored a point against the inner critic.

(2) I enjoyed your writing, as I usually do, but I especially appreciated the first four paragraphs, and shared them with my students, since we spoke about that phenomenon yesterday.

(Also for the record, I did NOT "like" this post for the Christian propaganda reading of Jesus into the Book of Isaiah. That's not your fault, of course. You can blame the Christian propaganda machine, and that's not even being cynical.)
