So like, I gotta ask, how come you don't mind creating something like hotel purgatorium as a Christian? Like even if you don't believe it is a sin, doesn't just writing about hell, sinners and the devil feel wrong or even weird (especially with them being written in a pos light)?

It’s cuz I know that these characters are fictional and separate from real life. these interpretations of figures from abrahamic lore don’t have any real life power nor do they affect what I believe or practice- it’s playing touys!

However evil is real and I do think that fictional manifestations of evil and corruption are a good way to explore it. It’s okay to write characters that are evil and antagonistic. It’s okay to not deny that there are bad people in this world. However there’s something to be said in this particular story about nature vs nurture and if people who- maybe in different circumstances- wouldn’t have done the harm they did- truly deserve eternal damnation.

i think your art would taste like the communion wafers you get at church

theres something i really enjoy about this comparison

Something in 40k which I find interesting, very funny, and also both realistic but a really weird worlbuilding choice for a setting that is meant to be at least somewhat satirical is that the Imperial Cult of the Imperium of Man is in many ways more tolerant of heterodoxy than the real world Catholic Church

Random Hotch q for the expert, but do you think he’s especially religious? I can’t recall if it’s been mentioned/touched upon in the show (currently rewatching) but I always envisioned him to not be practicing but maybe subconsciously Christian lol idk what are your thoughts

truthfully im not sure. from his vibes i could definitely see him being a hardcore christian, but considering the amount of american symbolism we see in his office, we definitely would see some sort of evidence if he practiced any kind of religion.

if i was to speculate, id say he’s uninterested in organized religion and spirituality on the whole. he seems more bemused when interacting with overtly religious pushy parents and clinical with abusive parents with a religious front, while morgan has a much more personal reaction, which makes me think hotch isn’t bothered by religion the way morgan is. but i imagine morgan, who grew up in a loving home that was disrupted, felt abandoned by a god he once loved whereas hotch, who grew up in a consistently abusive household, never bought into a benevolent god to begin with.

if we’re talking just my opinion? i think hotch’s childhood was littered with the omnipresent force of southern christianity: there’s a church on every street, sunday church was a weekly occurrence, bibles in every school, prayer during class, crosses in every room, etc. but i think he thought it was a sham. i think of his interactions in natural born killer with the guy who’s dad put up a religious front in public but beat his family in private, or the father in boxed in who would do the same thing. i think of it similar to that; religion was just part of the cover to maintain the appearance of a happy wholesome family. hotch doesnt seem like the type to pray every night for the abuse to stop—it seems more like he would just accept the way life was for him until he takes it into his own hands.

it’s been a while since i’ve seem cm so i don’t remember his house decorations or haley’s jewelry, but nothing stands out in my memory. i don’t think he’s religious but i don’t think he has a particular aversion the way morgan does. that being said, i could understand any religious headcanons for him since he really doesnt talk about it much. he even kinda dodges the question in demonology when morgan asks what he believes in: he believes in behavior and people and things he can understand. there’s no need for him to worry about the rest of it.

i really should have started some kind of interfaith org when i was in undergrad. i had absolutely zero time for that of course and was busy with class and orchestra and running a completely different club at the same time but. it would've been nice to have i think

[bleakbluejay]

you guys gotta learn to be a lot cooler about religions that aren't your own

and yes. that does include christianity.

Sometimes I think about how my catholic grandma legit at one point had a serious conversation with my dad about having me professionally exorcised by an exorcism-certified catholic priest because I dressed androgynously, listened to angry music, and liked dragons a little too much as a child/teen, and sometimes it's funny to wonder about but other times it's like what the fuck, man. My dad told her no and I only found out because he told my sister who then told me, years later, that it was ever on the table at all

excatholic will always be a better descriptor for me than agnostic or atheist cause it's not like i don't believe in god. that's not really a choice for me. my foundational perception of the world is built around a belief in god. so all that core stuff is still there. religious leaning of 'excatholic' meaning that to me the foundational facts of the catholic tradition are true, that god is real to me and so are sins and saints, but that i am consciously choosing to be contrary to all the practices of the religion because i think they are bad 👍 'excatholic' cause i think it's all real! i have just chosen to go to hell about it 🫡

two different rabbis directly to me + multiple places online: jewish imposter syndrome is real and is (to varying degrees) almost a universal experience in one way or another

me, who has been actively practicing for over nine months and taken multiple classes while also being halachically jewish by birth: i am the exception and am an imposter in jewish spaces and should feel bad about it. no i will not elaborate on why i believe this is true of me and no one else.

ok I talk about Kieran a lot in the context of like, a little generic fantasy revolution plot but he is not in fact the lynchpin of this. this is his little cousin, Audrey. She's actually interested vaugely in politics + keeps up with Damian's (kieran's older brother) work, and the #state of things. Kieran is just very conductive to the vibe and does a lot of PR because he's kind of an extremist in his own right before the righteous cause, y'know. While things are kicking off for Audrey's little gang he's becoming well acquainted with violence and such because his friends are being personally tormented by A difficult to articulate embodiment of evil. (Just for fun and for easy targets, because a mildly descript embodiment of evil is about power. However you too can accumulate enough violence to fight back about it. But watch out!)

However a couple provinces over are some Good Kids (tm) at a little institution near Ottawa. Audrey considers herself not much special but wants to do magic sociology like Damian (he did not want to do magic sociology he wanted to practice magic law and somehow ended up being a combo magic social worker/cop), accompanied by her friends Charlie and Sam, interested in furthering magic research, and Gabriel, who is here to blow things up. But, TLDR, Sam furthers magic research a bit too much and gets into necromancy stuff and they've gotta put this guy down. Magic society is held together with paperclips n glitter glue and nobody's really been materially powerful enough to reanimate the dead proper, but they are not ? really cool with letting this guy continue to try ? People who properly practice magic are an open secret that's usually defended by cynicism because Who is going to believe you . CGI has gone too far etc etc. However properly fudging the line between dead and not is going to cause SO many problems that no one is ready to deal with yet.

However now a pack of plot-armoured kids are like HEY ? THERE IS A MAGIC SHADOW GOVERNMENT WHO IS SUPPRESSING INFORMATION BY ASSASSINATING KIDS? and such is the plot, in loose terms. and against his better judgement, Seth is there
