#Capitial

[katesfoxhole]

Speaking of Latin being used as the translation convention for High Gothic, it just occurred to me that if Astartes was a third-declension i-stem plural noun, then the singular form would be Astartis.

I will be using that from now on.

I mean, I could instead headcanon that it's fifth-declension, in which case Astartes would be both the singular and plural (in the nominative case)... but that would be boooooring.

So, to recap:

[piccolaanima01]

Vogliamo parlare di quanto sia sfiancante il dover sempre capire tutti, ma poi non essere mai capiti? Cioè, tu devi sempre capire i pensieri, i comportamenti, le azioni, le parole degli altri. Ma quando si tratta di dover capire te, tutti voltano le spalle e se ne vanno.

“Mi ascoltava. Ascoltava anche le mie pause, tutto, anche quello che non riuscivo a dire. Sedevamo lì, e io sapevo che questo si prova quando si è completamente accettati. Si siede accanto a un’altra persona e si viene capiti, tutto viene capito, e niente viene giudicato...”

its just so crazy how dimension 20: a starstruck odyssey is the greatest season of any tv show of all time

[katesfoxhole]

It just occurred to me to wonder, do Astartes speak High Gothic, Low Gothic, or both?

It would be funny if they only spoke High Gothic and only the more educated Guard officers could even communicate with them.

Meanwhile a handful of Astartes do go to the trouble of learning Low Gothic, and they get mocked for caring about the squishy mortals.

No singing until the corporation tells you to

Money grab!! WICKED fans have said DO NOT SING in theaters for the movie.

That is because the corporation wants to now have official sing along showings to make more cash..

No, in confession you aren't talking directly to Jesus, nor is He to you

A friend asked me to comment on the following sentence that she had come across:

"When the priest declares our sins are forgiven, it is Jesus speaking his words of love through the priest."

I fgured I would share my response:

"St. Thomas Aquinas is the source of the distinction that in confession and other sacraments, the words said by the priest are the priest's, but in the mass at the consecration the words of the priest are Jesus'.  

"Aquinas' distinction is: At the consecration, the priest acts in persona Christi. In all other sacraments, the priest acts ex persona ministri (see Summa Theologia III.78.1). Vatican II introduced the phrase "in persona Christi capitis" to refer to the priest or bishop insofar as he is exercising his Holy Orders (see Presbyterorum Ordinis 2).

"St. Thomas never expected that his choice of terms would later become canonical, and used by people who otherwise would not read the Summa Theologiae. But since they did, and because the two expressions are so similar, people are sometimes confused about the teaching regarding the other sacraments, particularly confession.

"You can tell that the words in confession come from the priest, since in the formula of absolution, the priest says, "I absolve you in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." If the words came from Jesus, he wouldn't be acting "in the name of" anybody else. 

"So the text above is incorrect. The priest is not possessed by Jesus when he talks to the penitent, nor is the priest prophesying, nor must he use Jesus' words in Scripture. Those are pretty much the ways for Jesus to put his words in the priest's mouth as the text suggests, and none of them happen regularly. What happens is that the priest uses his intellect and judgment. Hopefully, he's open to any promptings from the Holy Spirit, but the action is fully his. Some Protestants tried to deny this before the Council of Trent, but Trent condemned anyone who thought the priest was not acting as a judge using his own prudence."
