Heck yes I’d LOVE to apply for your store’s credit card. Let’s go through the entire process now, while the shoppers in line behind me fantasize about my brutal murder.

If Christianity is not seen as countercultural and even subversive within a military-economic superpower, you can be sure it is a deeply compromised Christianity. #zahnd

“They go on to say that church culture can feel unwelcoming and even shaming to people who are struggling financially or have family structures outside of the model they describe.” 🤔 https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/opinion/religion-affiliation-community.html

Houses of worship are, uniquely, one-stop shops of meaning, continuity and support.

I’m so proud to have been a part of this film and the uplifting strength, wisdom, and love of Mother Earth and all creation that is displayed in the relatively unknown story of the Lakota, Nakota, and Dakota people’s history. You do not know the history of America without the revelations of this film told by the side of those who have lived it.

Lakota Nation vs. United States is coming to theaters on July 14th.

I think this "everything's going to hell" is a central mindset of a lot of people, despite so many objective measures that dispute this. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/20/opinion/psychology-brain-biased-memory.html

Our biased attention means we’ll always feel we’re living in dark times, and our biased memory means we’ll always think the past was brighter.

@WordyAnchorite There’s obviously more context to the quote that I pulled— but interestingly in a 2021 research paper there were indications that particular religious traditions predicted a unique pattern of cultural traits. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2109650118

Culture is derived from how and what people worship. Anthropologically speaking, religion and culture are nearly synonymous. #zahnd #books #theology #culture
