[*The things I write here simply reflect hermeneutic curiosity, and are not intended to endorse any religion.] So, last time I was talking a bit about Isaiah 6:5 and the idea of seeing God in all his glory and holiness makes conspicuous our sinfulness and inspires our repentance.  The Gospel of John specifically references the (2/2) The Rise of Spirit Warriors on the Christian Right: The Secrets Of The Cross

Off Topic: Science and COVID-19

I just read an editorial in Newsweek by a SHITHEAD named Kevin Bass who is attempting to promote skepticism about the mainstream science on COVID-19. Since Bass is a complete IDIOT, I will not waste much time or energy on his pathetic editorial.

Conservative vs Liberal Christians: Wait, There’s Another Way To Read This?!
