      1. > And all their minds transfigured so together, This showed that the myth was collective (interdividual) rather than individual, and also implied the role of mutual imitation.

      2. > More witnesseth than fancy's images; "The myth should not be confused with pure fiction, with the product of individual imagination or with a poetic inspiration that functions in complete isolation. Myth is not a subjective fabrication." - René Girard, A Theater of Envy

      "...This is the capital statement, irreconcilable with Theseus's fatuous skepticism." - Girard. @jordanbpeterson failed to communicate the intersubjective nature of the truth of mythology clearly to @SamHarrisOrg when they discussed truth.

      "She [Hippolyta] secretly repudiates his scapegoating of the poet, the lunatic, and the lover, which is the reverse of, and ultimately the same thing as, the official idolatry of "pure fiction" forever triumphant in modern literary criticism (AKA academic IYIs)." - Girard

      "Theseus is the high priest of an optimistic humanism that performs a neat expulsion of the midsummer night under the triple heading of poetry, lunacy, and love." - Girard Girard knew that @sapinker missed the point and that he is a priest of the Cathedral.

      @nntaleb, in contrast with the IYIs mentioned above, knew the importance of sacrifice and mimetic desire in René Girard's works:https://twitter.com/MimeticValue/status/1023786702605901824 …

      For Girard, a contagious mass movement, reaching a paroxysm of violence, would select an arbitrary victim, developing a widespread hostility towards it or him. The elimination of the scapegoat would assuage the violent tendencies of the group. - @nntaleb https://medium.com/incerto/no-worship-without-skin-in-the-game-70b4aa341092 …

      In Girardian terms, is the scape-goat *always* arbitrary?

      Replying to @Pv @nntaleb

      It's not exactly arbitrary, because there's a mechanism to it, but it's not attached to a specific identity. Perhaps @Ahimsa_Satya_ @GirardForum @BrunoPerennou could elaborate further?

      What I am getting at is that: Could it be that the scapegoat could actually be deserving of collective punishment in some cases? Did Girard account for that?

      If he is guilty, how much more the model? I think Girards answer is that we are all guilty.

          Yes. Actually that's the whole point of the Gospels
