Key Notes
model
The Elohim passage is interpreted as a theology where flesh and sin give mortals access to knowledge gods cannot obtain.
definition
Jiang answers that sin is taboo or invisible walls; it reveals reality, the self, guilt, reflection, wisdom, pain, and freedom from social conformity.
interpretation
The serpent is rehabilitated as the impulse to seek knowledge even when a false god or priestly order forbids it.
diagnosis
He claims Philip II and Aristotle were childhood best friends and reads that as evidence of a long Macedonian plan: Philip absorbs Greek military innovation while Aristotle absorbs Greek intellectual innovation.

diagnosis
Universities are diagnosed as temples for comfortable priests; true knowledge is found in the ordinary, mundane world with suffering people.
diagnosis
The Greek alphabet mattered because mass civic participation required an efficient writing system, replacing elite Linear B with a tool for broader literacy and knowledge-seeking.
