wtf is nestorianism

Nestorianism is maybe the most common heresy in Christianity, to the point where some saints are even guilty of it. (Hello St. Patrick)

It is the idea that Christ had separate Divine and Mortal aspects.

"But CT, why does that matter? Who cares?"

The crucifixion is why it matters! If Jesus was just a normal guy being haunted by a separate Divine Christ that could just leave whenever it wanted, then the Crucifixion wouldn't be a sacrifice now would it? It would just be the Divine Christ junking an old car, or throwing away an old outfit.

But if Christ is both fully mortal, and fully divine, his sacrifice was God dying for humanity. Which is a much greater sacrifice.

Whats the COOLEST fresh water fish you know 🐟🫶

THE COOLEST FW FISH:

There are a lot of really amazing fw fish in the amazon basin, and I love giant catfishes from around the world. I'm based in North America though, so my attention goes there.

We have a pretty cool fish here...

 American Paddlefish (Polyodon spathula), family Polyodontidae, order Acipenseriformes, found in various parts of the Mississippi River basin

This species is the only member of this family that still exists. They are most closely related to sturgeons. This order, Acipenseriformes, is considered one of the most evolutionarily primitive groups of ray finned fishes.

They do not have scales, and their skeleton is mostly cartilaginous.

They are filter feeders. Their heads and rostrums are covered with thousands of sensory receptors, which help them locate zooplankton swarms.

They are considered “vulnerable” due to overfishing, habitat degradation and destruction, and pollution.

as we know the higher up you are the closer you are to god. this means when clouds form in the sky they actually develop sentience and immediately start cannibalising each other to get more divine power. when a cloud is strong enough it does gain psychoelectric abilities but it also gets too heavy and begins to die, blaming the ground for ripping it from the heavens and attacking with its thunder on the way down. nevertheless its pieces descend like whale fall spreading the last of its divine light into the earth

anyway the build up of that divine light is why there's trees and animals and stuff down here

An informational comic I drew last year for my Comics 2 class, reposting it to my new account (had to jump ship from the old one unfortunately) with some minor grammar changes and learned my lesson in adding watermarks! Happy early pride :)

I see this headline:

As a former cakewrecks lover, I figured sure, I’ll bite. Let’s see this cake. Literally nothing could have prepared me for this cake. 

They paid $49 for this “frog-themed” cake and honestly no amount of money in the world could be put on this masterpiece:

imps bother a nun in the scriptorium for imp thursday

[sicut-anima]

For about 6 years now I've had a running gag with one of my cousins where, once every like 6 months or so, I'll find a way to insert a certain mental image into the conversation. The mental image is "a pile of toilets in an elevator, which closes and then goes up." I do this as naturally as possible. I'll construct an entire scripted conversation path with the express intention of leading into an opportunity for me to say "a pile of toilets in an elevator, which closes and then goes up." I have talked other people who aren't me into integrating the phrase into their conversations with him just once. He fucking hates it. He has threatened to kill me about it. I let so much time pass between instances that he never sees it coming. Because he knows that the only way to see it coming is to integrate into his brain the expectation that at any point, any conversation may suddenly turn out to be a toilet-elevator trap. And that's a fucking insane way to live.
