After a while it seems like the actual lamb sort of gives up on hiding that they’re a lamb is that because there have just been so many sheltered generations withing the cult that they dont really question it or maybe truly know what a lamb looks like? and also that the old faith has been defeated either way so why doubt

Also if it did become just another open secret did anyone ever insist that they should be able to use wool for clothes or smth cause I imagine people would be curious about it if they made the connection that oh its really similar to cotton I wanna try that! Or has the lamb ever thought about it for their kids?

I answered the first question here.

About the second: No one would dare demand such a thing, really, considering that the wool belongs to the Leader and cotton is plentiful on the cult grounds.

BUT when the temperature began to drop, the Lamb thought of the children and asked an expert for help.

Much to the Leader's displeasure, of course. But the children come first.

Description

The Agony in the Garden of Gethsemane describes Jesus' intense spiritual and emotional suffering on the night before his crucifixion, where he prayed to God in an olive grove, asking for the "cup" of suffering to pass but ultimately submitting to God's will ("not as I will, but as you will").

Listen

I'd trust disciple Ratatuj with MY LIFE

He is tiny, he survived long enough, and he keeps the cult well mantained, catches the spies, and propagates all the propaganda needed for a healthy cult

We trust him with OUR LIVES

did I mention he is tiny? so tiny! tinytuj!

A great demon-stration!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. This cartoon spans two Bible stories, which both feature Jesus sending His followers out to surrounding towns to heal and preach. First, in Luke 9, He sends the twelve apostles. Later, in Luke 10, He sends another 70 non-apostle disciples (or 72, depending on the translation). They're all given the same instructions and come back rejoicing in the works they were able to do in Jesus's Name, especially the casting out of demons. 2. Old versions of this story are split between numbering the disciples as 70 or 72. The translation remains up in the air today, and both are valid for different symbolic reasons. One reason 70 is significant is because it represents the number of supposed nations in ye olde Bible tymes, making this passage about Jesus calling the whole world to evangelize. One reason 72 is significant is because 72 disciples plus 12 apostles equals 84, which is 12 (the number of tribes of Israel) multiplied by 7 (a number used to symbolize completion). 3. In this cartoon, when the apostles and other disciples return to Jesus, Peter gushes about being able to cast out demons, since Jesus's Name forces demons to obey them. To give Jesus an example of this, Peter asks John for his staff, and John obeys. Peter then gestures to John, implying (in hilarious jest) that he just made John obey him because JOHN is a demon.
