It is not “progressive” to denigrate another person’s religious beliefs. If those beliefs do not entail a denial of scientific reality, if they do not entail abusing or harming other people, if they - on the contrary - inspire and motivate meaningful community, why would you be an asshole?

Okay so this is kinda cool: this is an old German striking clock, with a signature from 1851. It's a really bizarre mechanism, too; it counts the quarters (like you'd expect), but every single quarter it also strikes the hour! And yes, that gets annoying quite fast.

Some good ol' mystical Bible reading on the dial of this old English longcase clock.

TradBros saying tolerance is a sin because St. Nicholas supposedly assaulted Arius (likely a myth from the later Middle Ages) are beyond dull. The same legend indicates St. Nick prayed for forgiveness for his fault.

Wittgenstein: the eye is not contained within the perceptual frame; it "shrinks" to a supernal point beyond individuation. "Das Ich des Solipsismus schrumpft zum ausdehnungslosen Punkt zusammen, und es bleibt die ihm koordinierte Realität."

Perhaps the most hauntingly beautiful work of Christian mysticism ever written.
