@J @adachi it's kinda infuriating when people refer to God as an old man in the sky and it's like all basically referring to Michaelangelo's depiction of God which is a radical break from tradition

@adachi @une This is broken during and after the Renaissance but Catholics are very much innovating and going against the tradition there.

@adachi @une I didn't remember this, yeah that's pretty iconoclastic lol

@adachi @une For what it's worth though, the validity of icons isn't just some crazy Protestant nonsense. The tradition is legitimately split on the issue and has been since the very beginning, ESPECIALLY on images of the Godhead himself. That's why it's so controversial.
The compromise after Nicaea II was typically no depictions of the Father allowed, the Spirit can only be depicted through abstraction (like a dove) and the Son can be depicted the same as any saint, although typically with more reverence.

@adachi @une That doesn't sound like him. If he did say something like that, it wouldn't be unqualified. I would be shocked if it was.
Lewis did have Puritan leanings at certain points during his career, but not consistently, and he was tactful even when he did. He's well read in the early Patristics, is fully aware of the ambiguities and nuances between the different schools of thought, and deliberately avoids sectarian issues in nearly every work.

@une @J
I could tell from one part of the book, he begins to whine that catholics have crucifixes in their house because "praying with a crucifix in the room is like praying to an idol instead of directly to god", i basically put the book down there because that was dumb as shit.

@une @J
I actually read that book, only the first 50 pages or so though because it's total bullshit and protestant cope.

@J @une
Who's screwtape lol? I only know wormwood, the comic artist right?
I'd refer to it as learned helplessness. you can see it on the left too, people who make excuse after excuse due to mental illness or some other thing
but incels are the worst for it.

@J @une
Loving misery, also known as the 'crab mentality' is quite a common trait in general too, often shared by generally 'toxic' communities (that sounds soy lol but its true)

@adachi @une Yeah I agree.
I view incels the same way I view Screwtape and Wormwood. You can't feel sympathy for them, they're choosing to be pathetic.

@adachi @une I know they do. I disagree with Une that it is not funny. It's very funny. I had a hot Asian girlfriend when I was almost 275 lbs. Women do not give a fuck.
Incels are funny because they could literally not be lonely if they would just stop psyching themselves out, but they never will. They love being miserable.

@adachi @une Yes friend, I am joking. The joke is that I am actually tall, so it does not make sense for me to be an incel. I am a "fakecel" as the young kids say. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

@J @une
I know you were joking, obviously, I'm just saying incels really do think the whole height meme is real, like girls only date 6'5 or whatever.

@une The jews fucked with the food supply so I would only grow to 6'1" bc they knew Staceys only go after 6'2" Chads.
They'll all be sorry. I have a plan.

@J @une
the height thing is a meme tbh, no matter what incels say, face > body > height

@J it must be because the jews are using mass media to make our women only go for chinks and closet fags
