Welcome to The Open Door! Could it be true that Look Space blocks Catholic devotional posts? This week (September 15th) we explore such provocative, yet evidence-based, conjectures. Our special mystery guest (SMG) is an artist and evangelist. We’ll be talking about devotional posts and what some of our Puritan forefathers would have banned in Boston. Our SMG is also an accomplished iconographer at risk to the wrath of today’s iconoclasts. The questions we will explore include the following.
1. In hope of opening a (philosophical) can of worms, what counts as censorship? Is there good censorship as well as bad censorship?
2. Why would a powerful international communication network “block” Catholic devotional posts?
3. How extensive can “blockage” become?
4. Are there any methods, apart from calling a plumber, to eliminate such blockage?
5. What does it mean to “sign” an icon?
6. How is an icon at once incarnational and transcendent?
7. What gave rise to the iconoclasts? Are they still in our midst?
8. True or false? You, our SMG, are a prayer warrior.
9. How does a mendicant iconographer pay the rent?
10. Speaking of acronyms, does your work have an AMDG dimension?
