I've seen pictures of the Vatican sculpture before, but not the Lucifer one. Very creepy. Also reminds me of some of Kaori Yuki's art for Angel Sanctuary. I wonder if the sculpter is a manga fan.

Fat activist does some kind of weird Catholic-psuedo-magic. Seems heretical to me.

Lol, spiritual rituals are part of every religion. Tell me what burning incense, eating bread wafers and holy water are...

According to some Christians thats also satanism, it's a big thing in the rift between catholics and protestants.

Many Protestant sects still accept Communion, it's the Saints and the Papacy that causes most of the rift since Protestants tend to consider that a form of idolatry, not quite Satanism but still very bad.

So, so close to coming to the realization that if she did more hiking or 'things' she'd stop having fat sagging over her top. But nah I guess its 'Fat Revenge' on all the skinny people who don't let them go outside.
Oh wait that's what people have been suggesting to fat people since forever. I feel like they don't understand what the definition of revenge is.

A lot of Protestants hate each other too. It's a whole thing in the town I grew up in, kind of funny.

Yeah Protestant here studying Orthodoxy. The views on ritual are definitely different, but communion and baptism are still accepted as things that must be done. iconography and things like the rosary are where a lot of headbutting occurs.
Old Joke: After many years a ship finally rescues a man stranded on a deserted island. Before they leave they ask the castaway to show them around and describe how he survived.
While he's giving them a tour of the island, they see on a hill 3 buildings.
"What's those?" they ask him.
"The one on the left is my hut where I lived," said the man. "And the one on the right where I would go to church [insert brand of Protestantism here]."
"What about the one in the middle?" they asked.
"Oh that's where I used to go to church."

All historical Protestants Lutherans and Calvinist, and Anglicans literally believe you go to hell if you deny / don't do the sacraments especially communion. The only Christians that really don't do communion that often is fundamentalist baptist and pentecostals, ( which technically are Protestant but are not considered" historically" Protestant they appeared in the 19th and early 20th century)

The "how to be respectful in a graveyard tutorial" is mostly okay but it just seems egotistical to believe you speak for Confederate soldiers and other departed souls and I'm amused that she said people will come after her for saying to be modest and cover shoulders. The "don't walk on graves" is a common Anglophone superstition but I think it's fine. You won't be able to read many gravestones, not all cemeteries are developed enough to have a bunch of rows for walking. It makes it sound like caring about genealogy and history and reading graves is somehow haram or disrespectful when it should be anything but.
Agree with her on not putting your hands on gravestones bc some are easily damaged by oils in our skin and not sitting on them, which should be obvious but a lolcow called Jude Valentine claims she witnessed someone doing this too.

Maybe she is Satanic.
A lot of them are "Ow the edge" Satanists these days. The kind that support The Satanic Temple* (not to be confused with the Church of Satan) so they can argue that they need abortions for religious reasons.

True, I guess I was thinking of when Pagan and witch were more synonymous terms. Witch always seemed a LARPy term to begin with to me. If you can't affect anything physically, I don't think you're a witch.

Baptists and related sects still do communion, they just believe that it is symbolic and Jesus is only spiritually present in the wafer and grape juice (it's never wine). Looking it up, this is a pretty old belief (minus the grape juice which is some weird 19th century temperance nonsense).

Jesus, in the Gospels, directs that we take communion; "For every time that you eat this bread and you drink this cup, you commemorate the death of Our Lord, until his coming." He also says "take this bread, for it is my body, broken for you;" and likewise, the wine is blood shed; but whether or not this is metaphorical depends on your tradition. I personally think transubstantiation is weird, but so is getting so mad over whether or not the Holy Spirit comes from Jesus or not that you split Catholicism from Orthodoxy. I feel like even if I take the bible seriously there are people who take it waaay more seriously

I think any herbalist has a better claim to the title of "witch" because they do affect material reality by making a new tea that helps an owie tummy.

The grape juice thing came from Welch, he founded the grape juice company as well. He was part of what historians call the 19th centurty Holiness movement which was a loose set of various groups that believe that clean eating and living and right living could bring you closer to sanctification. Kellogg was also part of this movement.
