Let us really, truly hope and pray that that Project 2025 is just fear mongering. Because (and I hope I look silly in the coming years, I really do) if even a fraction of what it threatens is genuinely on Trump's agenda, then the name of Christ is about to be blasphemed horribly by people in our government who claim to serve Him.

If and (hopefully not) when that happens, the Church MUST step up and be the hands and feet of Jesus. We MUST show the true face of God to the world. We MUST choose to serve our neighbors over flag or party or human leader. We MUST put the teachings of Jesus over political power. We MUST be willing and ready to side with people we disagree with, for the sake of their human rights.

I don't care who you voted for or why. Yesterday is past, I'm talking about today and tomorrow.

If Project 2025 is nonsense, then praise God!

Everyone cooes over Gimli with the tiniest little beard and mini axe, the Hobbits all sleeping in a little pile of curls and tails, Aragorn in formal elven clothing but his hair is still as messy cause they couldn’t style it even if they tried, Boromir holding a baby Faramir cause he refused to part with him after he was born

400-something years later, it's common hobbit custom to give gifts on one's birthday instead of receiving them. Bilbo gets special mathoms for his 111th birthday party to give away.

Friends, please remember that those who live by the sword shall die by it. Not once when the apostles faced persecution did they slaughter their persecutors. Rather, they went to their deaths proudly bearing the name of Christ- and this caused MANY more to be saved in His holy name. When the world sees you act in violence, they only see worldlings ready to kill in the name of Jesus. But when they see us love our enemies, pray for our persecutors, and stand unafraid of who can take this life from us- that is what makes people of the world come to Christ.

He will answer them, ‘Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.’

Pippin thinks Legolas is a woman

Boromir is convinced that the hobbits are all 15 max

Everyone thinks that Merry and Pippin are twins, except for Legolas, who is convinced the hobbits are quadruplets

Sam thinks that Aragorn, Boromir and Legolas don't have to eat to survive

Legolas doesn't mention things he sees or hears because he thinks the others have noticed them too and just assumes they have a plan

Pippin complains that he is hungry and Legolas just gives him a handful of grass. Pippin is so confused that he just takes it, and now Legolas tries to figure out what hobbits can eat by just giving them random shit, like

Things the hobbits have accepted and likely eaten later (a list by legolas)

-Grass - Leaves

-Stones - a hair tie

-A feather - one of Gimli's shoes

Every picture of God that has ever looks like him has been made by people who never saw a Jesus that looked like themselves

I have never felt more at home than when listening to a gay person talk about God. I have never understood someone better than the lesbian Catholics who love to veil, or the transgender episcoples who see their transition as an opportunity to share in God's creation, or anyone who found God and then carved their own way to him.

When I sit in chapel, and the worship music feels like noise, I know there is a hymn being sung with a shaking voice that sounds just like Christ calling out for his father. When I see lessons written in script, I know there are sheets of construction paper printed in stock fonts on a family's kitchen table sent home from Sunday school teaching the same. When I get a hand out with Bible verses bought from Amazon, I know that someone has written the same verse in craft glue and collage and their blood.

This seems like a solid and real thing, I did my best to vet them and found their FB: https://www.facebook.com/Neverusealone/

Aragorn seems like a traditional King Arthur style hero— he has huge Main Character Energy because he’s supported by destiny, by bloodline, by all these magic artifacts and prophecies, and etc etc. Frodo and Sam are Just Some Guys. Aragorn recognizes that Sauron understandably thinks he’s the main hero of this story ….and he pretends to believe it too, spending the entire series using himself as a diversion to prevent Sauron from seeing Frodo and Sam.

Aragorn’s whole thing is that knows he seems like the Main Hero of this legend to people who don’t know better —- but he also knows that he isn’t, and that his role is just to keep Sauron’s eye on him in order to protect the people around him.
