  • The lore is deep, the Johannine stuff influential but there is tons of others.

    From the Books of Daniel, Ezekiel, the Enochian tradition, the apocalypses of Peter, Adam, Paul, John, Gog and Magog etc.

    Around Pseudo-Methodius and Qur’an, look to the east, kinda time seems to when it notches up a gear all the ways to the joys of US rapture obsession, Watchtower, LDS, George Romero, Resident Evil and all that good stuff.

    Reading over Michael Penn’s early sources on Islam and the end seemed rather real for a few peeps




  • It’s dark age Europe, because of the chuch.

    Aquinas apologetics in there too, yay.

    Fortunately no one owns the period or phrase and we are free to call dark age Europe dark age Europe if we wish, and I couldn’t give a fuck if someone with a sticker thinks otherwise.

    Academia as everything else runs on trends, fashions and the needs of the masses, even those that don’t go to masses anymore.













  • I think that’s part of why he is being so careful with language, it’s in line with him coming out to say homosexuality is not a crime earlier this year.

    Hopefully this is just paving the way for further change but when the Church holds a lot of power in countries where lgbtq+ people are outlawed and heavily oppressed I can see why he’s slowly introducing ideas like it’s not against the law and being permissible to baptise.

    I’m no fan of the RCC but if the pope quickly does a full 180 on these issues the church will likely fracture and the countries where things are pretty extreme will break away and, double down on the persecution and allow it to become an identity marker.




  • I don’t think popping them was an issue, it was a few hours before the rain hit, they were ready to pop and my son was eager to help them.

    I think the idea is that raindrops hit the mushroom which expels the spores, suspect my son’s finger does the job better than the fungi was expecting…but perhaps it would be better to leave them alone.

    Have a few video clips of pooping, but not sure how to post/share them
