The Fediverse is starting to feel unwelcoming to me as a person who has spiritual beliefs.

I agree that: Religion, like any philosophy, is often used as a tool of oppression. That is evil.

I hope you can agree with me that: People of Faith & Spiritual Humanists can be as awesome AND as awful as the members of ANY other group.

So ...

If ya'll could stop calling people like me stupid (or worse, fascist), I'd be appreciative. Many of us are out here fighting the baddies alongside you.

My 1 year #Fediversary is coming up in less than a month. How should I celebrate?

RamenCatholic, 6 months ago to solarpunk

Huh. It's really easy to start a cult. I have customers joining, without asking for ANY details.

• Me: "You wanna join my cult?"

• People who barely know me: "Yes."

I have people in charge of snacks, the library, the cat sanctuary, the maker space, and I'm negotiating with a local heavy metal band for our worship music program.

Comment below with what you want to be in charge of in my theoretical #SolarPunk #EcoVillage #Cult ?

I took a home-made #THC edible last night before #Monsterdon and I'm still too high to function. It's been, like, 16 hours.

I'm punishing myself by watching #LeftBehind #movies - it's been 20 minutes, and none of the characters are even remotely likeable. The CGI is even worse than the "acting."

This is my #LeftBehind3 #WorldAtWar thread.
There are none others like it, and that's probably good.

Spoilers from 2005 in the comments below, I guess.

#Exvangelical #AdviceWanted

I need a polite & respectful way to tell a parent:

"I don't mind if you pray for me, but FOR THE LOVE OF FUCK please stop sharing my private health information with your chuch group. I DON'T WANT PRAYERS FROM THOSE BIGOTS.

"Next time you wonder why we aren't close, remember that one reason is because YOU DON'T KEEP MY PRIVATE SHIT PRIVATE."

Aight #DresdenFiles fans, I miss lurking in #TheDresdenFiles subreddit back in the day. I need my fix!

Let's talk #Marcone - I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Here are some questions I've been thinking about:

• What's his endgame?

• Do you think that the #WizardOfChicago will ever see the #BaronOfChicago as a true ally?

• By the end of the series (in the grand scheme, not the mortal world), will he be a hero or a villain? Or somewhere in between?

It bothers me that "Genocide is Bad" is a controversial opinion.

RamenCatholic, 6 months ago to Paranormal

I need(*) $120k USD & a stupid amount of additional funds for taxes, restoration, and fancyin' up an abandoned asylum halfway between Duluth & the Twin Cities for my cult.

Gib me money and you can survive the #ClimateWars with me in a #haunted af building.

Please note: the #spirits and other #undead WILL be treated with compassion and respect. Grok? #AdoptATorturedSoul #FreshStartClub

(* WANT)

This is my #LeftBehind2 #TribulationForce thread; there are none others like it, so this is all mine.

Please feel free to enjoy these comments, or mute this post.

I've been high from edibles for 20 hours now & I think I'm really fucking funny.

Poll for the 40+ crowd who went to school in the USA:

Do you, like, actually remember middle-school basics (like "how to diagram a sentence" or algebraic formulas and whatnot)?

#Pronoun #Poll

This is mostly for #Quakers and the #LGBTQIA crowds, but I'm also interested in other opinions.

How do you feel about Cis/Het #Quaker folks considering the use of #Thee / #Thou pronouns?

RamenCatholic, 7 months ago to ai

Trying to pay attention to a dubbed movie, the #Monsterdon posts, and my family group text (who are currently debating the ethical & practical use of #AI in #ASL #interpreting 🤯).

Hannity was a real bitch this morning, but seems to be calming down.

I've had "Jesus cysts" on my wrists for as long as I can remember; my dad & his brothers all had them too.

In the past couple of years, a third one has grown on my right foot, in another crucifixion spot.

Should I go ahead and apply for #Sainthood now, or wait until I have a full set of #stigmata cysts?

I'm doubling down on "opinions that shouldn't be controversial" today:

Both #Apartheid and #Genocide are bad.

(Note: full #AltText in comments, it won't save because of a character limit)

I forgot to start the movie on #Tubi several minutes early to get thru the opening commercials, I barely started on time.

This movie started quite abruptly.

Yo, question for my #PluralSystem friends out there:

How do you handle differences in religious beliefs within your system?

Please boost & comment with any additional hashtags for the #plural #plurals community

RamenCatholic, 8 months ago (edited 8 months ago) to random

Aw fuck I blocked someone I meant to mute for a while (until I cooled off a bit) - how can I change that on the Mastodon mobile app?

Nevermind, I found one of their posts in my Favorites and was able to unblock/mute.

There HAS to be an easier way than "poke icons until something happens" to do this.
