had a weird dream where I was arguing with someone about whether or not the Crucifixion is beautiful and they were like well “how do you define beauty” and dream me said “beauty is when something makes you want to do something good” and idk I think my subconscious was on to something there

obviously this raises the question as to how you define goodness, and dream me gave the example of the kind of self sacrifice inspired by the crucifixion as good actions and again I think she had a point: good is what makes you go out of yourself. Beauty brings you out of yourself

When I say "king behavior" I usually mean something Jesus would do

What am I talking about, I always mean something Jesus would do or encourage

Slow train journeys in rural England sure are an experience. You're going ten miles and it takes a day and a half because it stops at every lamp-post and the announcement says "The next station stop is Ferretley" or something and you think "I didn't know that was a place" and you get there and it isn't

Last stop was literally a picket fence, enough chopped wood to build another picket fence and, briefly, a train.

Fresh new sitcom idea: a spinoff of Modern Family but it's 1536 and the dissolution of the monasteries is in full swing. The patriarch is a secret Catholic and is hiding this from his long suffering wife and children. The guilt is eating him alive but he puts a brave face on things and has a reputation for being a total lad, a real joker, a good-time guy. Spoiler alert: they're all secretly Catholic but hiding it from the others. The family is tearing itself apart at the seams. Secrecy lurks beneath every punchline. It's a fun-filled series of heartwarming, wacky japes, set during the reign of terror of Henry VIII.

…and the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron your brother not to come at any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before the mercy seat that is on the ark…

…so that he may not die.

And you shall hang the veil from the clasps, and bring the ark of the testimony in there within the veil. And the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy. You shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the testimony in the Most Holy Place.

And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit…

And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom…

…he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

(Leviticus, Matthew, Hebrews)
