God is a noise in the street

OK, maybe it’s because I’m becoming an old guy but this morning, as I’m working from my home computer, and there was a bunch of shouting in the street from my noisy neighbor, I’m thinking of myself “Jesus, I wish that guy would just shut the fuck up.“ And then it occurred to me – as Joyce describes God as a noise or a shout in the street, is the interpretation that he just wants that noise to go away?

Giordano Bruno in Rome

“He said Bruno was a terrible heretic. I said he was terribly burned." Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.

Campo de' Fiori where Giordano Bruno was burned. Didn’t realize the significance when I took the picture last September. Statue of Bruno in the center.
