Quandary Resolution 669
theogony, copacetic, Valhalla, plenipotentiary
Like some vox pop plenipotentiary from Valhalla, there he stood, foot in the door, canvassing to know what might induce me to subscribe to (a) polytheism (b) monolatrism, or (c) kathenotheism, and when I retorted that I didn’t give a fig about theogony but inclined towards the chthonian he withdrew into the twilight, muttering - I assumed ironically -’copacetic, copacetic’, so I called after him that I didn’t give a fig about the origins of that either.
