anyways now that the danger has passed and it’s completely pointless for anyone to worry about me I’m ready to talk about the fact that the minor medical emergency I referred to a few times on here during the holidays was when I had an (apparently) spontaneous brain bleed and spent 5 days in the ICU with wires all over my body and an emergency brain surgery to drain the blood from inside my skull.
(I’m fine now)

Moody Baptistcore aesthetic blog i gleefully followed several months ago is apparently an actual Christian fundamentalist of some sort and I'm genuinely gobsmacked. It honestly never occurred to me that an ardent young Protestant dogmatist would vibe with pics of antlers and skulls next to crosses and abandoned churches. What are the semiotics of these images of the decay and decline of Christian institutions to someone who quotes Romans as a clobbertext while fielding asks about Ethel Cain??? Why would a fundamentalist curate these subversive images if they have such a didactic relationship with their religious institutions? Who ARE you??? Who am I??? Girl i am adrift

Strange bedfellows
“O Corinthians! We have spoken openly to you, our heart is wide open. You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections. Now in return for the same (I speak as to children), you also be open. Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ…

this a bit late but I saw ur tags on that sp easter episode gifset "not my ass pulling a stan at the tender age of six" - I'm so curious what ur easter questioning origins were 👀
i was (…am?) a lil insane growing up, like ok, I have memories of telling everyone in my kindergarten class that santa wasn’t real and wouldn’t care if they cried, bc they HAD to know the truth like, how could santa deliver those gifts in one night? why does he only give gifts to kids in america/ with enough wealth? You can still love the specials, and the holiday, the characters of the santa mythos, but believing a lie told by adults just didn’t sit right with me. also bc my parents told me he wasn’t real lol. (listen. my mom grew up very very poor. My grandma told my tias and tio that Santa wasn’t real, and only existed for the gringos with money jfkfkfjf) so. yeah my religiously zealous ass is the preface for even more religiously zealous stuff
so I grew up as a conservative christian girl that read the bible like a storybook every night, but I also have memories of questioning everything, it drove everyone crazy. I would hound my pastors after service with new questions someone my age wouldn’t usually have? I knew they thought it was kinda annoying if not mildly cute but I needed answers for every goddamn thing. Easter traditions bein one of them 😅 Now, I was raised very traditionally, as in, we examined good friday and went to a long Easter service and then, that’s it. Eggs, Rabbits were worldly, and had nothing to do with Christ, and tbh the most my fam enjoyed was the after church carne asada and the trip to walmart the coming monday to get discounted candy to munch on thru summer lolol. But I asked my classmates and teachers at school like at what point did easter become abt eggs? so if you’re not christian then, what exactly are you celebrating? You’re just doing elaborate stuff to eat candy. what’s the true purpose of the bunny? where did this originate? and everyone was like, just paint ur damn plastic egg for class Cel, you’re 6. 😂😅
Well that’s done and over with and I’m completely sane now. Also I did not paint and properly prep my first easter egg and participate in an egg hunt until last year with some friends and it was cute lol.

Our Advantage with Our Advocate
But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 John 2:1-2 (NIV)
Pray as we might, we’re still going to be tempted.
That’s just part of the big picture of this life, especially…
