First and foremost, Happy Belated Feast of the Assumption. Apologies for the mild disappearance, I'll be back on schedule as of today. My thoughts were focused around the change between day to night and back to day. How much of the patterns of nature can be used allegorically as a direct representation of a concept- like the Assumption. I may make another blog post on this soon. font » Continue Reading
I didn't think I would have to make another blog post about the topic of AI, but it seems that I'm compelled to do so regardless. I came across a discussion about AI and it being used as a crutch for human interaction and or companionship. We have lost what it means to connect with each other in the most basic, fundamental way. I do not believe mocking these people is the way to fix the damage we... » Continue Reading
I have been asked to discuss AI and its affects on people worldwide. I'm not exactly a tech genius, however I do know that it is wreaking havoc on the world around us. Not only is it affecting our environment, but on a smaller scale it is allowing the propagation of unholy images of Christ and others. AI cannot recreate the God-given creativity and skill we as humans possess. To say otherwise is ... » Continue Reading
The weaponization of Mary's perpetual virginity is something I believe should not be allowed to continue. We should strive to obtain the kind of dignified grace she possessed, which was kindness and the willingness to accept her place in this world among other things, but it was not her virginity that gave her these qualities, nor should it be something to subjugate women with. We are not our repr... » Continue Reading
I'm incredibly biased. I'm willing to single-handedly bring it back. I don't necessarily think that it should be done for modesty's sake, because I don't believe that was the original purpose. I believe it should be done for the stated reasons below: 1. It is cool. 2. It brings a sense of mystery to your life. 3. You feel like a princess or queen. Yes, those are my reasons. Take that as y » Continue Reading
I think to some extent Christianity is supposed to be unnerving, disturbing in a sense. After all, we killed God and that quite obviously did not hold him down in any sense of the word. Christ died nailed desperately to a man-made torture device and resurrected in the dark of a tomb. The Mysteries are supposed to be unnerving, strange, unexplainable. That's why they're called that. Too often do w... » Continue Reading
When people speak of taking the Lord's name in vain, they most often speak about swearing. In reality, it is about using the word of God to hurt others. People speak of swearing as if it is some great offence, when they use the commandments to put down others. To subjugate those who are unlike themselves. For this, they worship money and hope that it will be enough to buy back their souls. They p... » Continue Reading
The Divinity of Knowledge is the basis for many of our longstanding, historical universities. I consider it a great pleasure and privilege to be able to study the aspects of the world around us in sometimes painstaking detail. Science and Religion need not be at odds, it is a human construct to polarize and divide concepts that are nestled together like babushka dolls. We » Continue Reading
Self hate deludes the mind into believing that it cannot do any better than where it is already. Hate is a dangerous notion, so is hate against yourself. It will not give you a sense of relief from this great weight. It won't bring you anywhere but where those who seek to harm you, want you to be. They want you to be in a state of displeasure and they want you to hate what you see in the mirror. I... » Continue Reading
God seems to require some level of patience from all of us when it comes to righteous vengeance. People are often told that the act of forgiveness is for the victim. So, is vengeance for the perpetrator? Careful patience is required to forgive but not forget what God has planned. Don't forget. Forgiveness has always been for you, much like the blood of Christ. For it absolves the hate in the soul... » Continue Reading
How is it that the relationship with God is much like the relationship with people? Because God houses Himself in the people around us. I don't suppose that many people think of it this way, however, people are just as infinite and complex as God is. People, humans, have proven they can see the divine in anything and everything around them. Even the most remote tribes conceive of their own underst... » Continue Reading
We are in desperate need of the mysteries. There are things that simply cannot be explained and our task is to sit with that. font-size: 150%; } h1,h2,h3,h4,h5{ font-size: 200%; } body { background-image: url(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a0/Giovanni_Battista_Tiepolo_096.jpg); background-position: center; background-size: 600px; } .profile { background-color: rgb(222, 185, 146)... » Continue Reading
