@mcfate Both of these things are true. 😞

@Vanitas

Somewhat relatedly, when I was young and even more churlish, I used to lie in wait on the front steps of the New York Public Library for "Jesus freaks" to try to convert me.

I enjoyed asking them to explain the Trinity and then telling them what heresies they'd just committed.

I made one cry one time.

@mcfate Bad @mcfate. Very bad. Sometimes it's better to use an eyedropper than a firehose. . . The Grand Canyon wasn't bulldozed as a weekend project, ya know? 😊

@Vanitas

The Panama Canal sort of was, though.

😂

@Vanitas

Anyway, I SAID it was "churlish".

The one who cried had just learned that the word they lean on to mean "virgin" in Isaiah is also used to describe Dinah back in Genesis.

AFTER she'd been sexually assaulted by an entire village.

Oops.
