Reflecting from a Christian Perspective

Over the last few years especially since 2014 the nation is going through a huge challenge in understanding and articulating what is a Nation especially in an Indian context. Traditionally and historically, a nation that was least mindful of its poor and downtrodden, who were used just as objects of use and misuse of the powerful, rich and the rulers from time immemorial, yet experienced a short…

Two Fathers, Two Kingdoms: Understanding Spiritual Identity in a Divided World

Everyone we meet has two fathers. Everyone.[1] They have a biological father and a spiritual father. Biblically, their spiritual father is either God or Satan. The Pharisees incorrectly thought they were children of God, and said to Jesus, “The only Father we have is God himself” (John 8:41). Here’s an example were perception was not equal to reality. Jesus refuted them, saying, “You are from…

Interesting speculation on what went wrong with the writers' room for Arcane Season 2. I know for a fact that most of what's written here is legit, but there are a few statements I'm not too sure about. If anyone has receipts for everything this person said and can confirm it's entirely correct, that'd be great

Honestly I feel like it's a bit insulting to God to insist that They create a person in dignity only once, at their birth, and not continually over the course of their whole life, through the love and intelligence that both have their ultimate source in the Almighty.

My top surgery wasn't a mark against the dignity my Creator gave me, it was an act of creation born out of the love I have known from family, friends, strangers, and God, as well as a testament to human ingenuity and craft that are gifts from God. I carry around all of that on my trans body every single day and every single day I thank the Lord for it.

Just to clarify my thoughts (since I've had a number of people ask me about it) re: Job and cursing God. There's a big difference between cursing God as used in Scripture and how we generally would think of cursing at God today.

Cursing someone, in the Bible, has a lot of depth to it. It's not just saying "screw you " in anger, it's got a sense of forsakenness to it. It's the opposite of a blessing, a removal of blessing. If the blessing is presence, your face shining on the person you're blessing, then a curse is absence. In some translations, Job's wife tells him to "renounce God and die," which I honestly think makes a lot more sense to modern ears.

Job says a lot of unpleasant things to and about God in his anger and grief. So do the Psalmists. A number of the Prophets. So can we. God can take it if we come to him with honest expressions of our emotion, including those not-so-nice ones directed at him. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting mad at God and saying, "How dare you, you bastard" when you suffer unjustly. You can say much worse, I think, without sinning, though I don't feel particularly inclined to give examples. But as long as it's an honest expression of your heart, I think you're doing exactly what prayer is for. You're presenting him your heart with an open hand. He can use that. Opposite of love is not hate but indifference, etc.

Job doesn't renounce God. Neither should we. But I think when you're truly suffering, you're gonna have those feelings toward God either way. He'd rather you address them with him directly than try to avoid them. Cursing at God in the modern sense is actually a great way to keep the relationship strong and not end up cursing/renouncing him in the Biblical sense.

"don't worry we're only deporting the dangerous ones" that's what they said in 2017 before deporting our most beloved custodian who had a clean record and a family and worked at an upstanding Bible college funded by conservatives' money. they didn't care to make a distinction then, they absolutely won't give a rat's ass now. la migra are like vampires. don't answer the door for them. don't give them permission. you have the right to remain silent. if you see uniforms or exempt license plates, sound the alarm.

I think I'm in the "conscious incompetence" stage of being a social animal in the real world and it sucks so majorly. bro what do you do after you realize you're bad at socializing and then in-person interaction gets harder because you know you're failing at it now.

It’s really, really annoying how many women will wear bikinis and lowcut tank tops and see-through leggings and booty shorts with their buttcheeks hanging out, but then turn around and be all, “Men should be able to control themselves and stop lusting after me!” Like girl, we know why you’re dressed like that, you know why you’re dressed like that, everyone knows why you’re dressed like that. Stop pretending, lol.
