I don’t care if you make fun of Catholicism as long as it’s accurate! The best humour has its roots in the truth.

yeah we might be brothers in christ but so were cain and abel so shut the fuck up before i decide to find a rock about it
#postscript;#if you try to tell me cain and abel were not brothers in christ shut up pls#i've studied theology for nearly a decade. i know more than you.#christ's harrowing of hell exists to retroactively turn all of humanity even before his existence into ''brothers'' in christ#because it is not a literal term it is an evangelist term. bc christianity in all denominations is evangelistic in nature#not being a christian is 1. a moral incorrect choice according to them and#2. not actually possible. everyone is judged as a christian everyone is fundamentally supposed to be christian#calling someone a brother in christ is just calling them christian.#so ergo according to doctrine cain and abel are in fact brothers in christ#but#and this is far more important than any of that#i was not trying to be perfectly accurate to the theological timeline of the tanakh vs torah vs old testament vs new testament vs apocrypha#i was trying to make a silly one line joke on the internet#and all you do when you try to go Well Actually They Werent is make yourself look stupid and pedantic.#so for the love of god stop it with needing to be right online im so bored and tired

Can I also post a meme that would have done numbers on tumblr in 1720
#or actually in a bunch of other years. this is really an introduction to one viewpoint in a centuries old theological controversy#masquerading as a meme#this doesn’t deserve an irish history tag#jory.txt

*The Eucharist is the body of Christ under the appearances of bread and wine.
**God is bound to these sacraments, meaning he always gives grace through them when they are done, but he is not bound by these sacraments, meaning that God can do literally whatever he wants and can of course go around them and provide grace in other ways.
***7 sacraments, listed: Baptism, Confirmation, Holy Eucharist, Confession, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony.
Feel free to add nuance in the tags or talk about why you find the teachings strange! Let me know if there's anything utterly baffling that I didn't include!!!
Also please remember to be respectful!!! Not everyone knows theology like you might!!!

[image description; a digital drawing of drift and rodimus. drift kneels before rodimus, looking up to him and reaching one hand up in reverence. rodimus stands with his body facing away from drift and holds the matrix of leadership up with his far hand. his eyes are closed and his expression is somber. both drift and rodimus have golden halos. there are several streams of white and blue light coming from the matrix which frame their bodies. in the middlemost light beam there are scattered stars. they are posed before an enclosed circle composed of red, silver, and golden rings. one ring has an engraving, written in cybertronian, reading; “he broke open his body to give shape to the lives within - many from one - so that cybertron and its people would survive and thrive.” outside of the enclosed circle in the top left corner is a shattered sword with a silver halo. in the top right corner is a full sword with a silver halo. the background is dark purple with a lighter purple etched pattern. end description.]

You know, it's a tragedy that there are no (or very little) Vampire x Christian stories out there, not for angst or theology or forbidden seductiveness or whatnot but for the sheer comedy of it all. I mean, the Christian would technically be immune to all of the vampire's shenanigans, like for example...
Vampire: Fool, I am the most powerful vampire in the West. Nothing but the force of an entire holy temple could even deign to scratch me
Christian: Idiot, I AM a holy temple. 1 Corinthians 6:19, fear me and the Spirit inside that can burn you to ashes
#this thought was brought on by a conversation i saw on the km shea discord#and also my need to theologize everything#it would be so funny to me too if we added the fact that the human Christian was also anemic#(not because anemia is funny. especially not if it's chronic. just the fact that the vamp couldn't bite the human)#truth be told it doesn't even have to be a romance to me. just a chaotic comedy duo#lemon duck quacks#lemon duck tales#yeah this is funny#for the words!#one day i will write all my deranged supernatural story ideas that involve way too much Christian imagery and comedy#but for now....#anyway how to make the most unbiteable human that you cannot help be drawn to as a modernized vamp?#Christian and likely chronically iron deficient#i am very sorry if this is offensive#but you know#vampires

thinking about the ranch metaphor again. it's almost as if god (famously not omnipotent since shit is still fucked) was like. there's a lot of shit I can't fix but at the very least I can try to draw these lonely, chronically online goofy gay boys to each other so that their love and joy becomes an ever growing beacon of light entertainment for all the other chronically online geeks and gays who might need that positivity in their lives.
#sorry not to get philosophical / theological but. yeah.#whether you take this literally is up to you i don't care <3#phan#dan and phil#dnp

paul accidentally putting a reference to cruising in a song about male models is clear proof yet again that he is the punchline in some elaborate cosmic joke
#paul this can only happen so often before I either can't take your word 4 anything or I have to update my theological beliefs word doc again#paul mccartney

Jesus is my older brother, not my dad.
other christians don't seem to feel the same?
am i missing something where he insists on such a thing except perhaps with actual little children?
#christianity#tumblrstake#Quakers#i just want to know what y'all think#progressive christianity#some christians see themselves as his children#but again most chrsitians are sippin trinity juice so the Father is the Son? egro Jesus can be Dad#i guess i'm not a true monotheist bc if Jesus is a child of God and told his disciples to call him friend. he is my peer#Jesus is my peer - big brother - mentor - friend#God the creator is my Mother/Father/Parent(s) as well as Jesus'#Jesus and I are both children of God and Jesus is my teacher/my respected older brother/ my friend#i think the Holy Spirit is what generally moves around among humans and through humans. experiencing God through others.#also an internal prompting on what direction to take (which typically needs to undergo through discernment) but is sometimes an act rn thing#hence the gift of the Holy Spirit being gifted to us#but now i'm getting theological in the tags#did i mention that all of this is through my christian lense and a muslim could have a different perception and be just as valid#and thats on different ways people see the Divine and how the Divine presents Godself/selves to different people#i know this because Heavenly Mother was at my conversion experience. she offered an invitation - an embrace#and i took it immediately a wept#and i think that presentation was intentional bc i may not have/wouldn't have reacted the same way to Heavenly Father#our relationship is good now - Heavenly Father and I -currently on the rocks in my “ God#in my “God - why?” era. shit has been dark. and people are commiting atrocites in your name#i do pray for their smitting. but only in a way God with Hir cosmic justice sees fit#and for softened hearts more often but on one occassion it was “plz get these sinners in line” and pulling out psalm 94#Godposting#religion

I don’t usually have strong averse reactions to art but seeing a painting of the holy family with baby Jesus wearing a keffiyeh and titled “Palestinian family” sure does leave a bad taste in the mouth. It’s really just the constant erasure of Jewish identity and people. Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish, as were Joseph and the Virgin Mary. And once again the appropriation of the literal Christ of Christianity as a Palestinian muslim is insane.
#personal#it’s shit like this that makes me cast heavy doubt on the concept of ‘Abrahamic’ religion as a grouping#even grouping judaism and Christianity together is shaky#they’re very different religions despite their similarities and connections#it’s like saying Mormonism is a legitimate theological companion to Christianity or Judaism#bruh moment

This world is our ship and not our home, but also sailing ships are the setting for the ultimate coolest stories, so maybe enjoy the adventure while we're here.
#random thought of the day#i was gonna post about how treasure planet awakened my love of sailing stories#because the minute they rush on deck to prepare for the storm i'm like 'how are sailing stories always the coolest things ever?'#and then there were metaphors so i made a shoddy and at best half-true theological point instead
