Jesus shared the fate of all who die, which is every living thing. There is a difference that prevents any smooth comparison in that unlike the workings of the natural world that brings death, for example, to the back-up pelican chick, the manner of his death was not part of an evolutionary process. Rather, it was a contingent event resulting from an expedient decision by political authorities. Far from being the result of a natural process, the crucifixion was historical, unpredictable, unjust, the result of human sin. Given the vagaries of human will, his life could have ended differently

I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.

percy being told that you burn what you'll miss the most and immediately burning his blue jelly beans to talk to his mom. i don't think anyone understands how much of a big deal this is to me

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

imagine what the ealdor villagers must have thought of merlin. when he lived there they thought he was a bit odd, probably accident prone, on the outside, bit of a funny guy. he had exactly one friend. all of a sudden he leaves to go to fucking camelot of all places. why? stfu we don't need a why. they think nothing of it and forget about him.
IMAGINE THEIR REACTION WHEN HE RANDOMLY SHOWS UP WITH THE FUCKING PRINCE OF CAMELOT, THEIR ENEMY, FOLLOWING HIM LIKE A LOST PUPPY. I WOULD BE SHOCKED OUT OF MY FUCKING SKIN IF A LITTLE WEIRDO REAPPEARED HAVING BAGGED A PRINCE. NO WONDER WILL WAS SUSPICIOUS. WHY IS AN ENEMY PRINCE HERE. WHY IS HE HARDCORE FLIRTING WITH MY BESTIE. WHY IS HE SO WHIPPED.

Context: Israel “allowed” aid in the forms of flour bags to be airdropped into Gaza, waited for hundreds to congregate, and then opened fire into the crowd of desperate, starving Palestinians. 150 Palestinians were killed. Hundreds more wounded. This is being called “The Flourbag Massacre”.

Some people speak of the Holy Trinity in this manner: God above me, God beside me, and God inside me... In order for everything in the entire cosmos to exist, it has to be continuously held in existence by God. Nothing can exist on its own. All of us are borrowing our existence from God. It is like the light that comes from a lamp that you plug it into a socket. It turns on while it is connected to the source and only when connected to the plug. But if you unplug it, the light will cease.
All of us have this spiritual light inside of us because we are all being held by the Holy Spirit... To be a vessel of the Holy Spirit means that we carry a special presence of God inside of us everywhere we go... There are times that we feel God is distant from us, as if he cannot hear us crying out to him nor feel our pain. But God is never far from us.

I don't recommend the rest of this article because it gets a bit problematic; I just like this specific quote.
