So many people do this btw. I just read Eric Weinstein’s response he just says a bunch of facts and a few absurd ones and hopes that people read it as sarcasm.
“It is May
We weep for love
In the imperfect wood
In the land of bodies
O lonely little boat
Carry me away
Across the sea of wine
O small strong boat
Bring me
My child.”
—Thomas Merton
@monachus_iners Sure, but the fact is that no one cares in real life. If you brought your issues up to an actual Priest they would probably just be happy that you are thinking about theology at all.
Fr. Antonio Spadaro has revealed that Pope Leo XIV introduced himself to Bob Dylan as a 'a son of St. Augustine' in reference to Dylan's song 'I Dreamed I saw Saint Augustine'
A beautiful idea. Haunting. "I've kept more promises than I made" is pure poetry. But no one is going to enjoy that, no one treasures it, so he's forced to keep talking about how some 55 year old senator has a super tight and fuckable ass.
It is absolutely incomprehensible to me that people harbor such beliefs, let alone advertise them publicly on the Internet.
Wanna know how you go to hell? 'Cause that's how you go to hell.
