"Write, read, and study -- do what you will, there is only one real thing to do in this world, and that is, to love." - Augusta Theodosia Drane (1823-1894)

apple bottom jeans — this is a reference to the apple that was eaten from the forbidden tree of Eden

boots with the fur — this references the way Adam and Eve had to clothe their nakedness once they had eaten from the Tree

the whole club was lookin’ at her — traditionally it is Eve’s fault for succumbing to the temptation, and most scholars blame her and future women for original sin

she hit the floor — this is a reference to the snake, who was cursed to crawl in the dust

next thing you know — the Lord immediately responded to kick them out of the Garden of Eden

shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low — this represents the way humanity fell from grace and gave in to temptation, and was repelled from the garden

Other Christians: Yeah I’m a Christian, but don’t worry, I’m normal.

Meanwhile, Christian Tumblr: I worship a triune God who emptied themself to become a human. He was born a poor teenager and grew up in poverty and at risk of homelessness. He was fully God and fully Human. He taught and lived in radical indiscriminate self giving love and subversive peaceful resistance of oppression. He fought the cause of the widow, orphan, immigrant, poor, and oppressed. He loved the sinner so much they left their sin and followed him, and reconciled both the government allying capitalist and the rebel freedom fighter to harmony in himself. He invites us to take his prescience into ourselves by eating his flesh and drinking his blood. My God then enthroned himself as the exalted king of the world by dying the death of a cursed blaspheming slave. He then rose from the dead and decided his first witnesses would be women, whose witness is worthless in court. His followers then went on to live in voluntary communism, to advocate radical generosity, to destroy ethnic barriers, to elevate the inherent humanity of women and the enslaved, to self identify as exiled and enslaved refugees and pilgrims, to equate God with Love, to diagnose the government as a necessary evil worth responding to with equal parts submission and resistance, and to make the preposterous claim that we conquer the world by giving our lives in self sacrificing love. In my faith, normalcy is heresy.

Right, so next time I fool myself into believing I need a doctorate, I at least have a nice research topic to start off with: high-energy theology

"consent isn't sexy, it's mandatory!" Yes, but, consider this: it's also sexy.

Whispering into your partner's ear "do you want this?" Before kissing down their neck and to their chest when they answer in the affirmative, then asking again, "are you sure?". Placing the tip of your girlcock against their boycunt, leaning forward and saying "tell me how bad you want it". And they start begging and pleading with you to fuck them.

Discussing your kinks, limits, wants and desires and knowing you can trust each other??? Fuckin' hot

God offered Adam possible partners in caring for all creation, and Adam chose Eve. We are allowed and encouraged to choose our relationships with others and creation and the world-- and each time God holds love for us that we might choose God back too, but it's not a true choice if we are ruled by a predetermined fate over God's unconditional love that provides room for creation to grow and to surprise.

I love soulmates but also this-

i’m gonna say something controversial yet brave: sexuality labels are a convenient tool we use to define something that is undefinable
