#St. Joan

[stone-cold-groove]

St. Joan of Arc.

Hey, folks. THIS is a meme fail.

I saw this on a Witch page and now I feel I need to explain what's wrong with it. The text on this is quite old and circulated just fine on its own.

This added picture is the fail.

That's not even a woman being condemned as a witch. That's Joan of Arc. Condemned for hearsay because she claimed to hear the voices of the saints, but not condemned for witchcraft. She was later canonized as a Catholic Saint.

The painting depicts Saint Joan asking for her cross. She begged that someone hold up a cross for her so she could hold it or at least look at it as she died. ...Not sure why someone chose Saint Joan for a Witch meme...

Did they just Google "Woman burned at stake" and didn't realize it was Saint Joan?

Happy Feast of All Saints/big shoutout to the homies who came through for me this past year. Hail the mighty dead and may the Communion of Saints pray for us!

I mean they did also kill Joan of Arc for dressing in male clothing. that was a pretty significant thing that happened. like I understand where you’re coming from here but they very much did kill Joan of Arc.

I'm also totally giddy about it as well <3

eee, thanks for this! I had no idea that Happy End was the basis for St. Joan! I shall have to read both of these now and I'm unreasonably happy about it, hehehe.

I do love that radio performance. When I found it, I remember being so surprised that such an early recording was still available, and in such clear quality. I sat there listening in fascination and thinking: "I don't understand much, but I do know that voice." <3
