Happy third year anniversary to me reading one of my favorite verses of the Bible for the first time.

"There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus."

The funniest part about reading the Bible for the first time is that when a new person is introduced, and you've met a bunch of people IRL with that same name, you know that person is going to rule. If a new person is introduced and you've never heard that name in your life, they're probably going to be super evil.

I'm so genuinely heartened to see Pope Francis make this statement for the dignity and sanctity of Palestinian life.

The "Nativity of Bethlehem 2024" unveiled by Pope Francis, crafted by Palestinian artisans from Bethlehem, shows the infant Jesus laying on a Keffiyeh.

Around the star of Bethlehem above are the words "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men" (Luke 2:14) in both Latin and Arabic.

The Pope also made this statement:

It's so important this Advent to remember that Jesus was a Palestinian Jew, and that there is an ongoing genocide against the very people through which He came to us. We cannot contemplate Biblical Bethlehem without remembering the horrors that plague modern day Bethlehem.

On a personal note, as a trans Catholic-in-training, I've been pretty disappointed with Pope public statements recently on issues such as trans rights, so I'm glad to see him make a stance on the right side of history.
