Postmodernism is a difference in worldview/cognition. You can see examples of it with Classicism vs Romanticism. Marxists/Egoists making assumptions about how people perceive then & now is a spook

*ahem* I would like to recite the following poem that I like to call "He does It for free"
>He does it for free, on an anime website
>Working on the dark, as he never sees the daylight,
>Not remuneration or acclamation.
>He copes with dilation.
>Frustration is at his sight
>Cleaning shit left and right
>Cooking hotpockets on the microwave
>In his dark and wretched cave
>He is a fat as a whale and ugly as a snail
>His ego is trully frail
>To the abyss he will send you if he please
>This beast is truly unease
>CHUCK makes him bleed and to SNEED you will plead
>FUCK NIGGERS
>FUCK KIKES
>AND FUCK JANNIES

depends on what you are reading, OP, and your goals. Don't be afraid to consult a reader or a companion if you are reading a canonical book, be it philosophy or fiction. Don't be ashamed to read slower and reread, many books require you to do this.
Another piece of advice is to read physical books that you underline and mark upon. If you use an e-reader, then you must have a reading journal in which you write down what you want to remember.

This is very good advice when dealing with non-fiction (and even some fiction, ie Borges)

I read most of the western canon (Fiction + Philosophy) before the age of 19.
Between the ages of 20 and 23, I only read stuff for my law degree, non-fiction, and self-help. I only started re-reading fiction and philosophy after 23.

Listen to these based anons, OP. Becoming a fool for Christ cannot be a goal if you want to be genuine. If you want to be seen as holy, there are easier ways to do it, but some people will see through your bullshit.
If you want to worship directly, just pray every day, pray as much as you can, think good thoughts, and do good deeds. But know that the closer you get to God, the devil will be more interested in corrupting your soul. And you can end up being a rich cult leader that will be damned to hell.
