This will blow your mind:
In the Eucharist, when we stand and listen to the Gospel lesson….
In the first decades of Christianity, before the 4 Gospels were written or circulated, at this point in the liturgy, one of the 12 living Apostles would stand up and tell a story they remembered about Jesus Christ (Gospel lesson) and then explain it (sermon). Then that Apostle would consecrate and distribute the Eucharist.
The 4 Gospels naturally took the place of the living Apostles over time. That’s why the Apostles commissioned the 4 Gospels. And it’s why we still stand - in honor of the Apostles sharing their memory of the very words of Christ.
A few notes about The Lord of the Rings that people suddenly seem to be misrepresenting:
The One Ring is NOT "just a tool"
It was infused with the evil of the being that crafted it
The only way to deal with it is to completely destroy it

Ubaydullah Hussain is actively working to bring Norway under Sharia law. He says it is the religious duty of every Muslim to strive for an Islamic state, regardless of where they live. He made the remarks in an interview with the Norwegian newspaper VG.
“Sharia is not just beheadings and amputated hands. It is a complete way of life,” he continues.
Sharia and Islam are inseparable. And to anyone who still believes in the existence of “moderate Islam”: it does not exist. How do you moderate a doctrine of conquest?
The irony is that Hussain criticises the West for being economically and morally weak, with rising crime, yet he fails to see that these problems are largely the result of open borders policies that have allowed people like himself into the country. It is his own “people” who dominate the crime statistics.
I have seen so many posts recently by people who clearly cannot hold more than one idea in their heads at a time
"Maybe X is a factor as well as Y"
"Why are you denying Y"
Why are you an imbecile
Rape gangs are not some kind of aberration. Ask any combat veteran what they saw in Afghanistan. The sexual torture and slavery of children is utterly commonplace in Muslim countries. It’s part of their “culture.” Which is why it’s suicidal to import that culture into the west.
I have just finished reading The Rape Gang Inquiry Report.
It is, without a doubt, the most horrifying document I've ever read in my life.
There is no close second... and it's worse than you could ever imagine.
Here's everything you need to know 🧵
This is approximately a million times worse than Epstein. It’s not even remotely close. The scale. The nature of the crimes. The powerful institutions implicated. And yet something tells me that many of the Epstein obsessives will have nothing at all to say about this.
the purpose is not to remove young people from the internet. the purpose is to remove anonymity from the internet in a country where the government routinely punishes dissent with jail. the british caliphate is no longer free.
@instapaper Is there something wrong with note/highlight syncing? For the past several weeks, the app does not sync highlights from the andoird app to web browser on PC.
If you’re wondering what is happening to the UK here’s my view.
We’ve entered a new phase of ‘anarcho-tyranny’ where the state is now failing to perform its basic duties like controlling the borders while oppressing its own people.
