☦️ Pilgrim, former archaeologist, and now trying to share/summarize archaeological discoveries related to Orthodox/Levantine sites.

[WGellone @WGellone]

Hi!

My goal is to share about the archaeological and historical context of Orthodox Christian sites throughout the world- but primarily the Levant. My hope is to provide decent summaries of the histories of those sites for the average reader.

This is merely a hobby project of mine, as I do have commitments outside of X. If you have any particular sites- be it churches, cities, tombs, monasteries, etc. That you would like me to do, please leave a note and I will try to get to it.

Please keep in mind, one simply can't be an expert on everything. (Though some of my friends may say I think I am...) But I will try my best to obtain the archaeological field and published reports, academic articles, and books to provide as references.

For the archaeologists and historians who may not like the framing of my future content- great! Discourse is what drives our fields forward. To that end I'll share my personal bias which certainly affects my interpretation of the finds! I'm an Orthodox Christian. This means I will not just dismiss out of hand the "folk memory" of the Church and Christian community. (To use the popular language of academia)

If you like the content, give me a follow. I will try to respond to everyone. Thank You! God Bless! ☦️

@CKubilayCelik @OrdinariateUSA You're retarded. The Ottomans routinely persecuted the Orthodox Church.

The Turks still do to this day. Take your taqqiya elsewhere.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@MJKelleyII @grok Imagine not realizing that Pope just means Bishop.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@Truth_matters20 Weird that he cited a canon you don't use.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@BibleInContext1 Ah yes, every man his own Pope.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@redeemed_zoomer I suggest the book of Acts

[WGellone @WGellone]

@BibleInContext1 Weird, the most pagan thing I've seen about it is evangelicals and Protestants using the same language the Pagans did to persecute actual Christians. Such as calling us cannibals and practicing necromancy.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@IndianaBrunner I can't believe evangelicals just pretend that James doesn't exist.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@Truth_matters20 Why when your fellow parishioners are sick do you pray for them?

[WGellone @WGellone]

@SoliDeoGloria_X It's so weird how you guys just explicitly reject James.

[WGellone @WGellone]

Yeah, 1/3 of your entire logistics system being built in Detroit is completely negligible.

10% of your armored force being lend lease, completely negligible.

15% of your soldiers footware being lend lease.

Whenever leftists try to pretend the Soviet Union won World War Two, they just show their ass.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@T0dd_Lester @Stropheus51 @farmingandJesus I'm convinced you weird evangelicals don't know what the terms pagan and worship mean.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@MJKelleyII Man, sure are a lot of evangelical pagans.

They constantly are talking about praying for people.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@MJKelleyII @schoenburg_von @Cardsfaninkc64 No, it comes from observation.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@JustinPetersMin Why use AI?

[WGellone @WGellone]

@ComeYeSinners I'm increasingly convinced you don't know what an idol or idolatry actually is.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@ComeYeSinners Pretending to be following the early church, yet repeating the accusations the Romans used to persecute and martyr early Christians.

Interesting strategy, my friend.

‼️🚨🇷🇺 Russia’s Central Bank releases new “rubles” depicting Saint George the Great-Martyr. ☦️

The Russian Central Bank made sure to exclude the “Halo” around the saint’s head, or any depiction of a Cross, because it may offend Muslims, Jews and Atheists.

[WGellone @WGellone]

@emlindy Who gave you the Bible- be specific!

[WGellone @WGellone]

@ComeYeSinners You guys are essentially Muslim lol.

How do you know what the Word of God is?

[WGellone @WGellone]

@BibleInContext1 Ok Pastor Bobby, now run back to your cousin.
