"Come regularly to meeting for worship even when you are angry, depressed, tired or spiritually cold..." Advices and Queries 10 I am all four of these today, but inadvertently my Meeting kept me to something of a normal schedule

Every life is sacred and has purpose. Some seem to be more purposeful for fertilizing a tree, which is where I'm struggling lately 🤬

One of those days I look at everything. Love, hate, nature, philosophy, art, food, absolutely everything under the sun and moon and ask What asshole did all of this

Wait, so if 1000 years is like a day to God then is Jesus actually dead for another 1000 years?

Just call God “she” or “her” or “mother” and you will find out very quickly how many Christians refuse to see God’s image in women. As if calling God by a feminine pronoun is demeaning to God rather than naming part of who God is. This is the worship of patriarchy.

Got to describe my experience at Meeting today as "processing existential joy". I had to an hour to roll around the Artemis 2 mission, and omgosh it makes me happier than I thought it did

I don't believe in the absolution of sin, or the resurrection of Jesus. When I read the christian canon I read the story of a victim of state violence, who showed and taught kindness and empathy for all from all. Who's influence couldn't be killed and lived on with the people closest to them

Charlotte Friends Meeting Transgender Affirming Minute. Y’all—we did it!
Charlotte Friends Meeting Transgender Affirming Minute-3rd Reading (now approved)

Charlotte Friends Meeting celebrates and welcomes the transgender community. Transgender people have historically and continually have faced prejudice, oppression, and silencing. We now stand in a moment where governments, faith communities and individuals are targeting transgender people with concerted efforts to constrain or eliminate their joys, livelihoods and even their lives. Those efforts and their intended outcomes are wrong and must be resisted.
Transgender people possess that of God, the Light, Spirit, which is in everyone, and deserve and require active love , support and affirmation. We acknowledge the unique witness of transgender people, who embody some of the lived testimonies and values of Friends, especially that of integrity. Integrity is acting consistently with our conscience and what we know to be true, seeking alignment between the inner self and the outer expression of that self.

Charlotte Friends Meeting rejects silence toward and complicity with any intimidation and oppression of transgender people. We honor the witness of transgender people and welcome them, benefiting from those who offer their unique selves in trust and love. We urge and call upon Friends and all faith communities to stand and be counted and to act by embracing, protecting and supporting transgender people in their joyous fullness of their beings. 

Let us lead with love and have the courage of our F/friends.

"God made you as you are and doesn't make mistakes!" 1. I'm not a mistake 2. God made me trans, and has made trans people since the start of humanity. We've always had transitions methods, the most important being FUCKING EMPATHY from the rest of y'all as a lesson!

It's probably really weird that I enjoy "performing" christianity. Like, taking time to study my bible (its getting very colourful), I've been enjoying prayer and watching church services (that one isn't new). I still can't get behind contemporary worship music tho lol

Whenever people gush over AI I'm going to think about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle being utterly convinced that he'd discovered real scientific evidence of real fairies because he saw these pictures
One of the Cottingley Fairies photos. A little girl is surrounded by what is very obviously paper cutouts of fairy pictures.Another of the Cottingley Fairies photos. A little girl is looking at what is, again, very clearly a cutout drawing of a fairy. Yet another of the Cottingley Fairies photos. Once again a little girl is looking at what is, again, very clearly a cutout drawing of a fairy. The final Cottingley Fairy photo. This one is supposed to be maintained as real. Again, very clearly paper cutouts. If you go look at the wikipedia  page about it you can even see the original drawing from the book they were from.

the most distracting thing is having all the different books labelled, so to quickly check the referrences made in better context. that's a new thing i just started doing, and may need to go back through the ones Ive already read 🤣

my bible is quickly becoming a mess of tabs and coloured highlighting. i normally leave it out if anyone wants to read during meeting, but this will be a distracting eye sore 🤣 need to pick a different one to bring sunday. preferrably that i haven't written in.. and is a translation i like...

uhhh... I barely made it into the article cause the trump bible is literally the KJV. Because he's supported by KJV-onlyists And why would the pope use a translation from a breakaway denomination... (instead of like the jerusalem or douay-rheims bible?)
Opinion: The speaker reads the Trump Bible, while Pope Leo uses the King James Version, which teaches love, compassion, and acceptance, writes John Casey.
