As far as I know, not a single pagan criticized Jesus during His life

So don't be surprised when, if you preach the truth, your greatest critics will be in the visible church

The retardation is strong with Islam.

Around 98% of Japan's roughly 80,000 annual adoptions involve adults, almost all men in their 20s and 30s.

The practice is called mukoyoshi and it exists almost entirely to solve one problem, what happens to a family business when the born sons aren't good enough to run it.

The logic is straightforward. A Japanese family that owns a company but has no capable male heir will identify a talented young man, adopt him legally, and often marry him to a daughter of the family as part of the arrangement.

He takes the family name. He inherits the business. The family line continues, just not biologically.

Some of Japan's most recognisable companies have been run this way for generations.

Suzuki, Kikkoman, and Canon have all had adopted heirs in leadership roles. The Toyoda family, founders of Toyota, have practiced forms of this system.

Specialist matchmaking agencies exist in Japan purely to connect business families with promising young men willing to be adopted.

Archbishop Cherry Vann says she’s “baffled” believers are leaving in protest, saying the Church has crossed a line they believe contradicts Scripture. https://t.co/dcG9zaHfm8

@CSLewisDaily Who'd have thought it?

@jonnypollock The PCI church in Limerick city is no longer PCI. It is solely methodist for a few years now.

Lads...if ye win this one.. I'd be pretty confident ye won't be spending those winnings.

@alaninbelfast @pciassembly @PCIModerator Further his comment on end of life was badly put but his point was rather is it right to *use medication* to extend life beyond palliative care norms...

[Trinity Presbyterian Cork @TPChurchCork]

@alaninbelfast @pciassembly @PCIModerator That's my elder...I think he was misheard. He said marriage is *not* a sacrament

I love when you meet someone and they say, "I don't think churches should belong to denominations, because it's (sinfully) divisive" and now I have to play 20 questions to figure out what they believe.

They almost always end up being Baptists with charismatic or anabaptist leanings.

The future looks conservative.

The assumption that birth rates are falling across society in general is not really true.

People who identify as conservative are having almost as many children as they were decades ago.

The decline is overwhelmingly among those on the progressive left.

“Not only is the framework of salvation in Eastern Orthodoxy oriented around one’s capacity to generate more good works than bad, the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of Aerial Toll Houses frequently establishes hope of salvation on the Blessed Virgin Mary.” —Joshua Schooping

@redeemed_zoomer Is there a way for congregations to rejoin?

🚨BREAKING: A teacher brought her students on a school field trip to a mosque, where an imam taught the children about Islam, demonstrated how to wear burqas on the girls, and instructed the group to kneel for prayer.

Only one young boy refused to kneel.

The clip from the visit (reportedly involving young scouts or schoolchildren) has gone viral, sparking outrage over concerns of religious indoctrination.

When Slovenia gained independence in 1991, its first time in history as it's own country, they wanted to introduce a national holiday that wasn't contentious in recent politics. They decided to celebrate Trubar's contribution to the Slovenian people on Reformation Day.

[Giff Lasta @GiffLasta]

Did y'all know that Slovenia is the only fully Catholic country (Protestants < 1%) that celebrates Reformation Day as a national "everyone gets off work" holiday?

As a Protestant who's touched by Slovenian Catholic enthusiasm for my book, I find the history here fascinating.
