There are naked statues in my neighbourhood park. They aren't even old. Couple decades maybe. In the very area families out their picking and bathing blankets.
The other interesting thing is this doesn't apply to violence. No one is censoring images because they contain Christ on a cross slowly dying in pain.

“If we ever forget that we’re one nation under God, then we’ll be a nation gone under.” President Ronald Reagan Ecumenical Prayer Breakfast August 23, 1984 During the 1984 Ecumenical Prayer Breakfast, President Reagan provided a narrative timeline of religious views in American history.

Guilty Before God
Biblically speaking, guilt implies one has acted contrary to God’s moral character and laws. Divine laws are a reflection of the righteousness of God. The righteousness of God may be defined as the intrinsic, immutable, moral perfection of God, from which He commands all things, in heaven and earth, and declares as good that which conforms to His righteousness and as evil that which deviates.…

one of the things that makes (movie) poolverine work so well is that i think wade is legit the only love interest in these movies that has not ever told logan who he is. like the whole "you're not an animal, logan", and "girls flirt with the dangerous guy but they don't take him home" deal. wade has never really done anything like that, in fact he's pretty encouraging of whatever the fuck logan feels like doing at any given moment.
#wade is both “my boy is gonna fuck you up” and “you're the literal definition of the perfect hero and moral standard”#santi talks#deadpool and wolverine#deadpool#deadpool 3#wolverine#poolverine#deadclaws#logan howlett#logan#wade wilson#hugh jackman#ryan reynolds

Re: your most recent ask YESSS SAY UT LOUDER!!!!!!!! BRUCE LITERALLY STOOD BY HIS PARENTS MURDERER'S BEDSIDE WHILE HE DIED BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE WHO WOULD!!!!! BATMANS COMPASSION AND EMPATHY IS SUPPOSED TO DEFY BELIEF, ITS SUPPOSED TO BE BEYOND COMPREHENSION!!!!! HE IS THE LODESTONE FOR EVERY ROBIN, THEIR GROUNDING FORCE, THEIR MORAL TRUE NORTH!!!!!
Yeah!!! To me, Bruce is not moral creature. He’s a virtuous creature
#morals bend and morals break#but your core principles as a person — your ethical values and standards— those stay in you.#Bruce needs to be compassionate and empathetic in ways it’s hard to understand#he loves Gotham like man loves a dog that bit him. hope this helps#asks#bruce wayne

also remember that no form of resistance is ever acceptable to the colonizer. and that includes non-violent resistance (the great march of return) + non-violence is only successful against a force that has a conscience. but if your opponent had a conscience, he would not be oppressing you in the first place.
#its a bit weird how people who have been oppressed for decades are held to this moral standard that not even their oppressor is held to tbh#also yeah agreed w the person here like if i was a part of such a group being oppressed i would not just sit and take it#there's only so much pain and loss you can take#israelis want to cause so much destruction that it debilitates the palestinians but it ends up fuelling their desire to fight back even mor#i was just reading up on how initially the people who made up hamas focused on social services#and only became interested in developing a militant wing after israel's brutal occupation of south lebanon#and the plo's retreat#even before oct 7#hamas fighting back was never acceptable to Israel#even if they were only using rockets made of scrap metal. no form of resistance can ever be acceptable to the occupier.#free palestine#palestine#gaza#israel#israeli war crimes#death to israel#long live palestine#glory to the martyrs#from the river to the sea palestine will be free#long live the resistance

I have this small, deeply personal headcanon that after his grandmother's passing, Alhaitham's home was so unbearably quiet that he started--just barely, just one or two words--to speak out loud to her as if she was still there.
"I've been accepted to the Akademiya, Grandmother."
"I passed my promotion exams."
"I debated with Haravatat's sage."
Just that, and quiet again.
But one day, it's: "I met someone strange."
"He keeps showing up when I'm trying to study."
"We don't agree on anything. Still..."
"I made a friend."
"Today, Kaveh and I were researching--"
"It's already dark. I didn't realize we spent so long in Razan Garden. Kaveh wanted to hear about my article--"
"He's going to be furious when I tell him the whole point for his portion of the lecture is based on a false predicate--"
The house where his grandmother used to be gets a little louder again; the noise lasts a little longer.
Until one day, when there's no words at all.
One day, when there's just the sound of a single sob, and then a long, long silence.
#genshin impact#alhaitham#kaveh#haikaveh#kavetham#sometimes you wanna laugh#and sometimes you wanna think about things that make you ache inside#Alhaitham is a miracle of a man#because if my ONLY friend told me they regretted ever befriending me in the first place#I don't know if I'd be able to come back from that one#okay okay but enough of the angst; hear me out#here's the second half of the headcanon#Alhaitham comes home from work#their house is eerily quiet#normally Kaveh's humming to himself while he cleans#cursing his clients and his own high standards in equal measure#or banging away on his prototypes#with Mehrak beeping along for moral support#but today there's just a quiet murmur from the library#Alhaitham looks in#Kaveh is at the desk#he's fiddling with the small portrait of Alhaitham's grandmother#the one Alhaitham packed away when he moved into the home they were awarded together#and in the quiet#Kaveh is saying “Well the resemblance might be uncanny but you look like a warmer sort.”#“I can tell you wouldn't tease me for forgetting Khwarizmi's third principle.”#“Would you believe what your own grandson says sometimes--he actually claimed--”#and if--muffled against the door sill--there's the barest hiccup#that sounds like a single little sob dipped gold in joy#well no one will ever hear it but Alhaitham anyway

I don’t know why this is something we apparently need to re-explain to parts of the CR fandom every few years, but if I see one more post that implies that the way Samuel Oscar Riegel is approaching his character’s faith journey is “culturally Christian” I’m gonna McFucking lose it.
#this fandom’s inability to retain the very obvious fact that Sam is Jewish is my villain origin story#also people throw around that phrase like it means something or they know what they’re talking about#when mostly they’re just mad at how THEY can’t seem to stop interpreting everything through certain evangelical Protestant tropes#and moral standards#I don’t have time for a whole rant atm but I’m truly at my wits end#cr discourse

It is so funny to me when Tarvek calls the Wulfenbach Empire an "illegitimate government based on brute force" like. Sweetie. You're part of a monarchy. How do you think your government was established, your ancestors asked the others really nicely to let them be in charge forever?
"Turning it over to my debauched son" so you're saying you think inherited leadership is a bad idea? You think someone unfit to run a government being given the position solely because they're the offspring of the current ruler is a bad idea? Is this your opinion, Prince Tarvek?
Tarvek. Babydoll. I am holding your face in my hands and gently explaining to you that the only difference between the establishment of Klaus' government and yours is a few hundred years.
#tarvek sturmvoraus#girl genius#audrey talks#it's a perfect depiction of ingrained biases#tarvek is so clever and so politically astute and yet touts this double standard like hes got some moral superiority#no realization of the cognitive dissonance AT ALL#hands down one of the stupidest things he's ever said#i want to shake him

a way for the skaven running gag to continue via the Ratkin
Kitten: Okay this has been bothering me for a while. If there's things like werewolves and werecats- Big D: Hold on, I told you about werewolves. How do you know about werecats? Kitten: Long story, lots of family drama, I'd prefer not to get into it right now. But my point is are there other shapeshifters? Big D: You BET THERE ARE. No werechihuahuas, though. That's a joke. And it's NOT FUCKING FUNNY, DEAR GOD I AM SO FED UP WITH THE TOMES OF ARCANE LORE FILLED UP WITH JOKE POSTS ABOUT THEM and okay, okay. Off track. Anyway, there are indeed many different types of shapeshifters. Boy, wandering from another room: There's wererats and stuff Big D: Quite so! They're hardly friendly to humans, for you see, they're quite fed up with human corruption being responsible for HEY WHOA WAIT WAIT. Boy! How do YOU know about wererats!? Boy: They talks to me all the time. Kitten: They do? Boy: Dunno why. They just wander up and complain about humans being a pestilence upon the world. One of them wants to show me a giant mouse wheel it wants to make into a big bike thingy, though.
#hunter the parenting#WoD#world of darkness#ratkin#werewolf the apocalypse#given how the Ratkin are completely bonkers but in a somewhat morally gray way#and functionally fighting for the survival of the world#vs the skaven being comically evil even by Imperium standards#they also nicely have the 'TTS but everything just slightly askew' vibe that#HtP seems to be taking to character adjustments#queued
