Definitely one of the worst, most uneducated press secretaries to ever hold the job. However, she held the golden minority quota ticket.

@zafulotus.bsky.social I was working from home today on detonation physics; an email notification popped up and I yelled, “Dammit Academia…stop with the fricking Magic Stick!”

@zafulotus.bsky.social Very nice job on your BSA discussion yesterday. Thank you for your time. Can you now please tell Academia to stop sending me emails with the subject line “I’ve Got The Magic Stick?”

@zafulotus.bsky.social You’d better not be cramming tonight for your BSA talk tomorrow on birth narratives!

@zafulotus.bsky.social You know a good week is coming up when your phone beeps at you saying “RFW talks ancient birth stories on BSA!” Hope you are well and have a nice weekend.

@hugomendez.bsky.social Finished your BSA class on the NT today. That was one of the best classes that I’ve ever taken. You are a superb lecturer. Thank you so much for taking time out of your regular teaching & research. Please let me know if you ever need any help from an explosives physicist.

Great article that everyone who cares about our justice system should read. And he quotes the great Akhil Amar, whose book on Constitutional Criminal Procedure I’m currently reading! www.cato.org/free-society...

@zafulotus.bsky.social My wife has complained about my rampant cramming of Mark knowledge because of your upcoming BSA discussion. She said, “That woman must seriously hate you.” I said, “Robyn is very nice, collegial, and wicked smart. I’ll know I’m in the shits when she compares me to Cicero.”

I was at a “liberal” gathering & discussing my views on the New Testament & Jesus. Then politics & I was asked for a few views. I said, 1. Not a Trump supporter. 2. I support mass deportation of illegal aliens. 3. I support Trump’s appointments of non-Fauci medical staff. No more invites for me!

@zafulotus.bsky.social The secret is out about your upcoming BSA discussion on Mark. My lovely wife said, “Oh shit…does she know that you study Mark morning, noon, and night and can’t STFU about it? That poor woman. I feel so sorry for her.” I promised to go easy on you. Have a great week!

@amandaknox.com Your interview with the legendary Ashleigh Banfield was great. Your questions about loss were poignant & reminded me of something a skilled interrogator told me: “Everyone tries to avoid loss, pain, suffering. You want to know something about a person? Tap into those.”

My views on the Pontiff are mixed bag. Summary. 1. Nice man. 2. Too progressive. Vatican II sucked. Church needs to return to Vatican I & all masses should be in Latin. 3. He should have met with more victims of priest sexual abuse. 4. All Popes should be Italian. 5. Need a Zen co-Pope. Me. 6. RIP.

Exactly, and I’m on the write in ballot. Just try to put aside the fact that I’m a Zen Buddhist. It’s a minor detail.

Tonight on CBS @candidamoss.bsky.social will be joined by special guest scholar @zafulotus.bsky.social to discuss the much debated topic of whether Pneuma can get through the papal apartment doors in the Apostolic Palace. Join us for our 10 hour live discussion.

@zafulotus.bsky.social I’m in the running for next Pope since I’m Italian, but I’ve been told that the whole Zen Buddhist thing may work against my candidacy. Hoping that the wonderful and brilliant @candidamoss.bsky.social can pull a few strings for me and mention me on CBS.

I’m a musician (guitar and piano), but love good lyrics. The next few months I’ll be taking us on an adventure into the mind of a brilliant lyricist, Mr. Ian Curtis. RIP, brother…I hope you found what you were looking for. Closer, by Joy Division.

Jesus demands loyalty from his disciples. They must be willing to follow his specific way of suffering. There is no other path than to take up their own cross and follow their teacher. Mark 8:34

@zafulotus.bsky.social Watched your short video on Was Matthew a Jewish Gospel with my wife. I said, “Robyn’s gonna wax poetically about how that’s a meaningless question & expound her views. I’ll have to correct her as usual.” My wife replied, “For God’s sake, leave that poor woman alone!”

Love the environment, but the EPA is unconstitutional and should be dismantled. It is not an enumerated right in the Constitution. If we as citizens of the greatest Constitutional Republic on earth want one, we should pass an amendment authorizing it. www.commonwealmagazine.org/cutting-and-...

Cutting and Undercutting
Lee Zeldin’s agenda at the EPA matches the Trump administration’s broader approach: kneecap the government, and then complain that it doesn’t run well.

Eggs are also very bad for you. Until they weren’t. Shouldn’t you be telling us that Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation? Until it wasn’t. Leave my damn coffee and nicotine alone. Do better.

@zafulotus.bsky.social We need to get you on a space flight. That might be the only way that Paul will make an appearance. “From the depths of the Roman catacombs to the farthest reaches of outer space. New Testament scholar Dr. Robyn Faith Walsh is on a mission. It’s Paul or bust.”

@zafulotus.bsky.social They should have asked her during the police interview if she liked to sleep in catacombs. Not that I’m implying that you sell human artifacts online or are a criminal in any way.

@zafulotus.bsky.social Our hopes of finding Paul are looking a bit dim. I’ll see if I can call in a favor with some of my NASA buddies, but they may be busy taking early retirement offers so they aren’t fired by the President.

@zafulotus.bsky.social Roma will be Roma. Luckily your legendary status provides you special access. However I highly suggest you cease asking restaurant owners if you can see their basement or asking to sleep in catacombs. They might think you are kinda weird. Have a wonderful weekend.

I never engaged with anyone using their preferred pronouns and never will. I engage with everyone by their first name. If they don’t want that then I engage with them as “you” or “they.” Simple. Done. Move on.
