Of interest for some. For me, I'll say I've had to do and continue doing some serious deprogramming work as I walk further along with the #CosmicJoker.

Blessed be the #DivineHumor.

John Beckett · Mar 19When You Call The Gods… And They Show UpDo the work to examine your unstated assumptions now, so that when you FAFO it will be a confirmation that all you’ve wanted is real and not something that sends you running back to a religion you left for very good reasons.

I was raised #Catholic. I currently identify as #agnostic #pagan. Which is say, that #gods or #deities, or whatever exist because people treat them that way. Like how we have seven-day weeks, and 24-hour days. And, if treated as #metaphor for "stuff that exists/happens that I/we don't understand," makes #religion as a concept somewhat sensical.

The best book about #Jesus and/or #Christianity I have encountered is _Jesus for the Non-Religous_ by John Shelby Spong. I'll put a Libro.fm link at the end.

Spong takes the reader through the #Jewish liturgical year, connecting the gospels and their stories to the various Jewish holy days. Because not only would a historical Jesus have been a #Jew, the disciples would also be Jews who follow Jesus. Whether Jesus was a historical person or not, the disciples are certain they had an important experience together, and that experience is Jesus-shaped.

The gospels are about this true thing that cannot be explained. It changed the lives of the disciples, and it is Important.

Libro.fmJesus for the Non-Religious Audiobook on Libro.fmWriting from his prison cell in Nazi Germany in 1945 Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a young German theologian, sketched a vision of what he called ""Religionless Christianity."" In this book, John Shelby Spong puts flesh onto the bare bones of Bonhoeffer's radical thought. The result is a strikingly new and different portrait of Jesus of Nazareth, a Jesus...

After much trail and error I am excited to reveal something I wasn’t even planning on turning into an actual thing, I just wanted to work on some personal art as I’ve been so busy doing trades and other things I haven’t gotten to work on my own stuff in a while. Honestly it’s a little silly considering this is a dead fandom and I’m pretty sure I’m the only one left in it, but I absolutely adore the way these two came out. While I didn’t bother actually lining the piece or giving them eyes I think the imagery still sells and I’m proud of what I have accomplished here.

Including additionally, Technical Boy traditionally has straight hair occasionally styled to show off I guess; However as a nod to his actor @brucejlangley I have passively head-cannoned in such an AU that his hair is actually curly and he simply straightens it to appeared more contained—… despite the fact we the viewers all know he is anything but lol.

Anyways, ignore me as I sulk in the corner and wish I had more friends to talk about AG with
