Ignoring the original post: I’m so happy to see another Tasting History fan in the wild!

Max Miller seems so wholesome and gives me hope for this crazy world.

The scripture is a perfect mirror of the human heart.

One with a heart in alignment with God will use the scripture for goodness. One with a heart out of alignment with God will use the scripture for evil.

It was written by mortals, who are intrinsically flawed. The message it strives to convey is absolute and incorruptible.

Errors in scripture are inevitable, the Bible is a literary device, but the essence of the teaching is incorruptible.

All humans strive for perfection, but the concept of perfection is illusory. Anything truly perfect is inconceivable to the limited human mind.

The history of those that have used the scripture for evil is long. The history of those who have used the scripture for good is equally long.

Christ commanded us to love one another, do we not fulfill the commandment when we are in love?

Hatred begets hatred.

I spoke to inform both the believer and the non-believer.

There are Christians in this world who have taken Christ’s words to heart and strive to live in His image daily. This way of living inevitably leads to compassion.

There is the Church of Peter, and the Church of John.

The Church of Peter is the Earthly institution that instructs the faithful and leads to a life filled with Love.

The Church of John is the Church of the Beloved disciple who put his head on Christ’s chest and listened to the heartbeat of the One who Created Love.

These two Churches are present in all people, at all times, throughout history. They shall never fail, as long as there is suffering in the world. This is why the faithful call them eternal.

When these two Churches are in harmony in the soul of the individual, and in the soul of the World, there is harmony. When they are in disharmony in the soul of the individual and the soul of the world, there is chaos.

Christ has Illuminated the soul of this individual, and there is only harmony.

This harmony is available to all, whether Jew or Greek, male or female, believer or non-believer.

Forgive me for being unclear in my communication, and I pray your soul knows this peace.

I think I responded to the wrong poster. I meant to say that to the person saying (falsely) that the Bible condemns queerness.

Have they never heard of David and Johnathan? Does Jesus taking twelve men and washing their feet mean nothing? Was John not the Beloved disciple?

I am a queer Catholic, and it deeply angers me when people believe that the two are mutually exclusive. The current wave of LGBT hatred (in the USA, at least) started with the Evangelical church in the 1940’s. It is not some ancient and infallible dogma.

Forgive me for causing you anger, I spoke only to gently admonish and correct the sinner.

Christ never knew you.

Weird she didn’t even link to it on her website!

Here’s a link, she just goes by her name on there.

Oh, I DO like these.

Does Native Knitter sell her patterns? I just found notions on her website.

Thank you for looking for me!

I was more enamored with the color work than the cloak design, though. I don’t particularly care if it’s any more complex than a circular cloak with pockets, but that bold geometric design is what I want to make!

Did they ever REALLY go out of style?

My design philosophy is: if it makes you (and the people you live with) happy, then why worry about what strangers think?

We agree. Poor baby is a rescue and had a hard life before we got her.

I mean, not everyone.

Reading your comment was like reading my own back story, so that type of childhood is more common than people think.

There’s a tendency to portray childhood with a more rosy tint than the reality, and when you had a crappy childhood, it makes that mythologized perfect childhood seem like something sorely missed.

Everyone is different and has a different story, but I agree that my adulthood is far nicer than my childhood ever was. I don’t feel like I missed anything by having a less than perfect experience as a child, and I am grateful for the life I’ve had since then that helps put it into perspective.

I think it’s just a troll. They made a account this morning and immediately started flooding the place with ridiculously thinly veiled antisemitism. Block and report.

Ooh, it’s like a window to the other side. Thank you for showing us!

I think they just got banned, their post history just vanished. What a ride.

This is crazy, and I can’t wait to see how this pans out.

Out of curiosity, who is the Arch-Lemming who decides to ban someone? Can they be summoned?

Personally, I don’t know ANYONE who experienced the “peak of life satisfaction” at 23.

Most people that age are still confused about what they want to do with their lives and sweating off some leftover hormones from the teen years. It’s more chaotic than satisfying, I think.

Edit: also, having a child at 26 sounds like hell.
