Then there's the one where Christian gets picked up by a bunch of soldiers and is forced to join the British Navy.

Pilgrim's Impress.

Did anyone else read the sequel by John Bunyan where Christian starts going to the gym and taking creatine and goes on this all-meat diet, and gets super shredded.

Pilgrim's Benchpress

[Josiah Hawthorne @JosiahHawthorne]

If you think someone's Christianity isn't valid, not because they don't follow Jesus's teachings, but because they hold different political beliefs than you do: you have no standing to ever criticize the "social gospel."

@Rainmaker1973 The social contract

[Greg Lukianoff @glukianoff]

I have zero patience for this tired old argument. It assumes that the people who taught their kids “sticks and stones” believed words never hurt. That’s asinine and assumes everyone before now were stupid and evil.

It’s a mantra meant to help insults hurt LESS.

AND it provides a bright line between speech and violence that helps prevent ACTUAL violence.

But we’d rather perform compassion than teach kids how to suffer less. The goal isn’t resilience anymore—it’s self-centered righteousness theater. That’s why childhood anxiety and depression are skyrocketing while self-righteousness on campus consumes everything.
