“The Church is not merely an institution, as you call it, but the living embodiment of the Holy Spirit.’

‘Ah, well here we differ. I feel I am more likely to encounter the embodiment of the Holy Spirit elsewhere – for example in those two million women who have been raped as an act of military policy in the civil wars of central Africa.”

Free flowers is back with a big brained idea! Imagine this:

Fyodor brings his little pet girlfriend to work and allows her to interact with all the other pets. You walk around the pen, soon meeting who you assume to be nikolas pet. ( you can kinda tell from the frilled collar) you two hit it off instantly and go to a not so crowded area of the pen to talk. Although, you two haven't needed to talk in so long the act of speaking almost feels wrong... however things take a turn for the spicy whenever nikola's pet starts to shift and bring her thighs close together. She looks down embarrassed but you quickly put the peices together and oddly enough, start to feel the same way...

You two start to whine and beg for you owners, however they can't hear. How could they? They're at a meeting right now. You look towards nikolas pet and find shes already mmakeing a forward motion with her hips. Makeing an attempt to grind against something. Your both feeling needier by the second... you crawl up to the other pet. And motion her close to yourself. You both manage to put yourself in some sort of position where you two are scissoring eachother. You both know your going to get punished if your owners find out, but you two are way too needy to stop.

The two owners come back to the pen, seeing their two pets equally fucked out and cuddling eachother. Nikolas makes a comment on how their so cute but fyodor is lowkey furious you came without his permission. Let alone cumming with someone else. No matter, hell punish you by simply fucking that other pet brutality. Forcing you to sit on the floor and watch. Hopefully after that you'll learn your lesson, but Nikolas seems rather insistent on setting up another puppy playdate...

FREE FLOWERS, you are a menace to society, this is just so good-- IT HAD ME BLUSHING ALL OVER AGAIN, it was just so hot-

the details!!!! Nikolai's pet having a pretty frilled collar!! you and the other pet growing bored and getting each other off, Fyodor punishing you in such a mean way, the difference in Nikolai's and Fyodor's reaction-.. and the way you and Nikolai's pet are so unused to actually talking now that speaking actually feels wrong!! MMMMM

besides, just the thought of Fyodor and Nikolai taking their pets with them to work is getting me all flustered 🥺🥺 i can't tell if i prefer the thought of him making you crawl like a good pet while he's holding the delicate leash connected to your collar, or of you simply walking behind him with your head bowed in submission, your gaze on the ground while he's taking you to the pet pen-

suddenly my thoughts are filled with this concept.... Fyodor and Nikolai watching, amused, while you and the other pet make each other cum again and again, not being allowed to stop despite you both already whining from how sensitive you are; Nikolai making all kinds of suggestive and bemused comments while Fyodor settles on simply watching-

ALSO, you can't leave me hanging like this!! Is there going to be anorher play date? Will we see Nikolai's pet again? Will we disobey again, even after Fyodor being this mean and fucking Nikolai's pet?

(/j (!!!), please don't feel obliged to continue this or whatever!! I'm just expressing my excitement because your ideas are always making my day better 🙏🏻🙏🏻)

The Anglican Church had broken off from the Catholic Church. The Methodist Church broke off from the Anglican. The Holiness churches broke off from the Methodist, and those churches have seen further splits. Such splits will not end, because there is a logic to further splitting. “That they all may be one” (John 17:21) has become “That they all may be multitudinous—and often at each other’s throats.” The acrimony directed at Rome also, with a few modifications, can be directed at Westminster or Geneva or Wittenberg. None of this is to deny that many good and even holy people have come from or remain in Protestantism, nor is it to deny the invaluable work done by Protestant scholars, theologians, social thinkers, and everyday lay people. Most clouds have silver linings, but some eyes are capable of seeing only the silver linings, not the clouds.

Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.
