I need to have a tough conversation with my husband at some point in the near future, and just thinking about it makes me shake, cry, and feel so anxious. None of those are good.

Please pray for me.

And my husband.

I'm feeling mildly blasphemous, so let's muppet-cast the bible.

Non-negotiable: Animal is Jon the Baptists. "RE-PENT, RE-PENT, RE-PENT!"

Jesus is the only Human.

Sweetums is that guy who was possessed by Legion, and then they were cast out into 'pigs' (it's the chicken-girls wearing fake pig snouts, since pigs are actual people in this world)

Up for debate: Statler and Waldorf are Anas and Caiaphas.

I am taking suggestions for more. Also, I think Sam the Eagle should be Pilate.

I'm glad you brought up kirby, because as a fellow Catholic I have always wondered something. Kirby is an alien who has the ability to gain the "powers" of whatever he consumes. If the Pope is correct in his assertion that aliens could take Communion, my question is as follows: If Kirby was a baptized, believing Catholic who took communion, would the process of transubstantiation give Kirby the powers of Jesus Christ?

Hello Small Business Owner,

When we partake in the Eucharist, the priest says a silent prayer along the lines of “may the Body keep me safe and eternal.” And there is another point where everyone says, “I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.” The point of Mass is to literally give thanks have gratitude and receive spiritual healing. It’s not like a video game buff or recipe where if someone does x then y happens. But for you, I’ll humor the question.

In this situation Kirby’s birth would have been forordained and his powers are a gift from God. Kirby would also need to be fit to receive communion by being in a state of grace and fasting at least one hour before Mass.

We can conclude that Kirby would have the same gifts Jesus gave to his apostles (power to heal, power to forgive sins, power to walk on water with Him etc) but would exclude powers they were not given that Jesus has. In conclusion: Kirby would become a priest. But like, in a speed run.

Since I sometimes make posts about gauge swatches people sometimes expect me to be able to tell them why their swatch lied to them and sometimes it's the resting step but sometimes it's not and gauge can be affected by a LOT of things like mood and stress, among many many others. And I'm good at knitting lace but I don't consider myself an expert knitter! There's lots of stuff I don't know! I am constantly learning new things!

So I've decided to join the "I don't knit gauge swatches I just suffer" people and get Catholic about it. The swatch lied to you because it was possessed by that guy who denied knowing Jesus. That's why it betrayed you.

When you’re down to nothing, God is up to something.

"God gave birds wings, but he didn't forbid them from flying. He blessed cheetahs with speed, but he never forbad them from outrunning their prey. He did, however, give humans a brain and insisted that they not use it."

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

2 Corinthians 10:5

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ

The Last Chapter by James Doyle Penrose

So, I've noticed a few things about Sir Pentious' blimp and how it's built.

Its main window is all circular, and if you look at how it's structured, it resembles a flower. Specifically, a window like this is often seen in churches, and they're called "rose windows"

Then, the windows on the side: it's like they're made of stained glass. And, what do you know? They're also found in churches!

And finally, the ship has a pointy extreme on its frontal area. It actually looks like a spire, aka the highest architectural element in a church.

So basically, this blimp contains elements that evoke the place where everyday people come to confess their sins and become better people and be able to eventually ascend to Heaven.

Sounds familiar?

Notably, a certain Sinner, who happens to resemble the Biblical representation of sin and evil (the snake), became a martyr and ascended to Heaven by using this machine of destruction to save his friends with no guarantee he'd be able to survive such an action.

Such an act of self sacrifice to help beloved ones is seen as the ultimate form of love and virtue, and it fully explains the brilliance and plot reasons behind his blimp's sacral architecture.

"Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." (John, 15:13)
