The protoevangelium of James (or at least the synopsis I read) is very funny to me as a premise, purely because they try so hard to extrapolate Mary's perpetual virginity that they manage to come up with this story instead where it's this young girl who's been hidden away all her life like Rapunzel being hand fed by an angel every day and then handed off to a very reluctant and confused old carpenter who wants nothing to do with this, and now they're on the run from the police because of immaculate conception

Someone on YouTube reanimated one episode of the 70's Monkey Magic show and released it a few days ago.

YES OMGGGGG PEOPLE I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS HARD ENOUGH TO WATCH NOW! This is a project where

170

artists took a segment from "Catfish, Saint, and the Shape-Changer" the 14th episode from the 1978 series Saiyuki or better known as "Monkey". It is nearly 50 years old and while I shall say the English voices are a lil dated the artists have captured the charm and humor that made the series so popular in the first place! It is creative, it is inspiring, it is so glorious to see so many different artists show how much Xiyouji means to them and how they see this funny and strange group of monks together on their holy pilgrimage. It really captures just how beloved not only the show was but how even today JTTW is for any generation and transcends time to still be going strong after 400 from Wu Cheng'en's official release!

If you have 30 minutes to spare, please give it a watch! This an ENTIRE episode so please enjoy!

I'm putting some of my favorite shots but sadly I can only fit 30 but look at these DESIGNS and in ANIMATION!! Seriously this is all worth it! From beautiful to funny give it a look!

is this God leading me to deeply study something, or is it an ADHD hyperfixation/imprinting on the book of Galatians

i think we all need to remember spn is not a christian show. it was created by a jewish man and many creatives involved were also jewish. "fake bible passages" ?? yea, it's a jewish show. not being 100% faithful to the christian bible and taking creative liberties with passages is not shocking. also the bible is literally a fiction open to interpretation

Can anyone point out to me one thing that God made that just has "only for enjoyment" as its utility?

"Only." Only. Only. ONLY, I said.

I'm willing to believe He made something just for joy if that's the truth but someone used a phrase like that the other day about trees and I started thinking, "they also provide oxygen. The way they grow and function also is a really obvious picture of the Gospel."

So far I'm landing on "He always makes things with a purpose and He's good enough at it to make it also intensely enjoyable."

max and i are closing in on launching [redacted sports rpf charity fest] and i am once again pondering how do i write "experience with writing form emails and manipulating google forms in ways no one has dreamed of" in a cover letter without saying "i did it for the rpf grind"...like there's no way unless everyone in this microsoft teams meeting gets really cool about a bunch of stuff really quickly. you know

It's a shame this is ending soon, the outfit may be from an old shoot but I gotta admit the perks of being a vampire are killer.

[talentforlying]

might go without saying, but rewatching midnight mass knowing you'll finish the last episode less than an hour before your class? not a good idea.

Bible Plotholes 2/?

The Bible says the moon produces its own light. It does not. Moonlight is sunlight reflecting off of regolith (moon dust).

Also, the sun is a star and not separate from stars.

"So God made the two large lights. He made the brighter light to rule the day. He made the smaller light to rule the night. He also made the stars." (Genesis 1:16)

bo katan living the far too relatable experience of pretending to be religious for family or extended relations to keep the waters calm. when everyone else around says amen This Is The Way with conviction and she can quietly get away with not saying it. it’s like when you have to go to church for some holiday dinner - you just smile, nod your head, and take extra care to say gosh instead of god

[sketching-shark]

It's been a while since the last time I asked you Shark

But I have a new question:

What do you think about the retellings of JTTW, where Tang Sanzang proves to be able to stand up for himself or that he literally can also fight alongside Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing and even Bai Long Ma/Ao Lie (who lately I've noticed has started to grab more fame and recognition, being more and more dynamic and part of the group than just being a simple background character)?

I think the most famous version of this kind of retellings is "The Westward" (I like the design of that Tang Sanzang)

PS: It's good to be back

Oh hey! Good to see you again too @wiings-kwami! And in regards to your question, while I fully appreciate that this is a very inadequate answer I guess that depends on how it's used asdfrweadf. TBH the idea that Tang Sanzang can fight back against or at least somewhat defend himself against yaoguai is a potentially really neat idea! As is in the og classic he is the second most static member of the pilgrim group, and this could provide an opportunity for him to be active and explicitly grown and change instead of regularly acting as the embodiment of the "damsel in distress" trope lol. THAT SAID, I can also easily see this being used to shove the monk into the role of "badass fighter" and keep him a static character that way...I know everyone makes fun of Tang Sanzang for crying and falling off his dragon horse, and while some of this is warranted tbh I feel like a more interesting story could be told by addressing WHY he's crying so much rather than putting him in the opposite direction as a stoic fighter. So at the end of the day and as with any other trope out there, I'd say making Tang Sanzang into a warrior monk is potentially a cool idea, but it's less about him being that and more about how it's executed.
