Your Personality Type Based on The Poet You Read When You're Sad: a thread
Throwback to middle school when I had undiagnosed OCD and didn't understand that intrusive thoughts are the opposite of your values so I confessed that I was struggling with the sin of racism to an entire roomful of my peers. It's funny NOW.
I'm just barely old enough to remember what it was like before OCD awareness efforts were mainstream and it was a much harder world to live in where it was far more likely for stigma to catch up with you in daily life.
It used to be that if I opened up to someone about my experiences with OCD, there was a much higher chance of them acting like I'd just admitted to something really quite shameful.
Happy Lord's day! Christ is risen from the dead.
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.”
— James 1:17

I'm convinced people who say the Trinity isn't in the Bible are just not reading attentively. If their argument is that the word "Trinity" isn't used, that's silly. If their argument is that the concept and teaching of the Trinity isn't there, they are not paying attention.

in some ways "an abstraction, an approximation, one step removed from reality" is the best any language can do because reality is always too much to capture. writers know this. so do mathematicians I suspect.
like yes I can say many things that are objectively true with either words or math but the things behind the words or the math will always be bigger in some way, I'm describing one leg of the elephant
