Last year, I befriended a Catholic seminarian. We've gotten to be pretty decent friends. Seeing as he was staying in town for the summer and I wasn't, I entrusted him with caring for my plant.

He did a wonderful job, but as he was returning my plant to my custody, he explained "I watered her every other day, I gave her new dirt, moved her into the sunshine, prayed the rosary-"

"What?"

He looked at me, confused. "Isn't she a plant you pray with?"

"No," I said slowly. "She's a prayer plant. That's the... colloquial name of the plant."

Upon seeing his stricken face, I realized something went wrong. Turns out, this entire time, he's been including my plant in on his prayers and leaving her near icons.

Listen, totally cool. My plant becoming Catholic is a great deal for her not dying over the summer. But now I must navigate this interfaith household. Keep me in your thoughts.

Your ai icon is not real. You can't venerate it because it's not holy. The rules of iconography is that it has to be made by a prayerful Christian. It HAS to reflect Heaven and the Holy Spirit which is something ai can never understand as it's not alive.

Your ai generated junk is disrespectful to monks, nuns, and other iconographers who dedicate hours, days, maybe even months to their work which is a centuries long tradition. Plus, it's probably also disrespectful to those being depicted in the junk.

Keep your ai out of devotion.

@heresylog can’t tell if this is a joke or no

[heresylog]

It’s a joke. I don’t know the names of his holiness’ personal staff but I doubt they’d be named “Larry.”

Also no evidence of anyone beatboxing in pope Francis’ presence.

[synebluetoo]

SO THE POSSIBILITY REMAINS

[heresylog]

Sure. Let’s live in the world of whimsy and possibility for just a moment.

Just to be clear to anybody, especially in the USA because I know that Catholicism isn't as common there, this is not a cool rebellion against authority. While some traditionalist Catholics are purely interested in ecumenical things like the Latin mass, in the USA a significant portion of the movement for traditionalism is made up of violent antisemites. The "church's understanding of, and relationship with Judaism" they reference here is the idea that all Jews are not solely personally responsible for the death of Jesus

Why do you have a beef with kirby

No, I love all Pokémon.

sorry for vampire posting

[heresylog]

The reason the part of the Mass where the transubstantiation takes place was historically veiled in the Roman Church (and still is in some eastern rites) is because it was seen as something private such as a sex act.

With the unveiling of the host and allowing non-believers to observe all of the Mass happened in the 1960s, coinciding with the sexual revolution…

[jelimore]

Would love any links you have on this, please, because Google is failing me for some reason?

[heresylog]

I’m sorry, but this was a joke. No such connection exists.

(The sex thing with the host is real though. I learned it from Scoft Hahn.)

Edit: it was Ronald Rolheiser in his Fidelity book.

Do y'all have any favorite card games?

[cryptotheism]

I know this is the jaded post-irony website and we all wanna be funny, but I am genuinely asking. Please, tell me about a good memory you have with some loved ones and a stack of standard playing cards.

[heresylog]

I learned most of the games I play in the convent but I remember as a kid my dad taught me crazy 8s and we’d play it for hours

Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.
