Codex Sinaiticus was:
- Not Orthodox, the schism didn’t occur until 600 years later
- Not the table of contents you go by, otherwise your Bible would contain Epistle of Barnabas and Shepherd of Hermas
- Never meant to be a settlement of the canon

“I’m struggling with my faith.”
This isn’t directed at anyone in specific, but most of the time to fix this, you need to get off your ass, stop doomscrolling 13 hours a day, receive the sacraments, actually do something relevant to your faith, and stop treating it like it’s an Internet hobby,
If you have trained yourself to treat your faith like some cool idea that gets shelved until it’s dusted off to be argued about on social media, you will lose it. Your faith is a gift from God; it’s not fun and games. By his grace, you need to protect it and nourish it. If you are consumed by lust and laziness and sloth and gluttony etc. and your faith just sits there stagnant, you do not stand a chance: Your “Catholic arc” is coming to an end.
If your profession is anything behind a screen, you can pretty much consider that over now. The sooner you realize it the better, lest you end up like this poor girl (an audiobook narrator).
“Learn to code” is now “learn to do
manual labor.” That’s about the only domain AI can’t touch (yet).
It’s not that AI is better than you—it’s likely not. It’s that it’s cheaper, faster, and more reliable than you—and significantly so. AI doesn’t get sick, isn’t restricted to 40 hours per week, doesn’t put itself on DND overnight, and costs pennies where you cost hundreds of dollars.
This is not a black pill any more than the Industrial Revolution was. There’s tremendous opportunity for people who can creatively wield it. One thing AI is not very good at is being creative. You are. That’s where you have the advantage.
And if not creativity, your advantage is having arms and legs. AI doesn’t (yet).
An existential crisis is going to sweep almost all of us. We’re going to realize— some rather abruptly—that we aren’t needed anymore. So get ahead of it, just like the blacksmith who in his old age had to learn how to forge molten steel. Probably something he was interested in learning anyway. Now by necessity he gets to chase that dream.
Resentful employees who see it in their best interest to demographically replace you, no less.
While I was sleeping Grok @bot noticed a child’s birthday coming up and went shopping for birthday presents she would indeed love, also tracking down and applying some coupons that knocked $30 dollars off the price.
Notified me asking whether I would like to approve or amend.
I may be selling my soul to the beast here but damn, does it make life easier.

i do love Catholicism bc it seems the deeper you get into it, the more the world makes sense, as opposed to it becoming more confusing
What’s interesting about this is they see Sheen as some sort of gateway. Why not AI generate St Augustine or Jerome?
Because that doesn’t sit right with you. You need to be eased into it with Sheen.
They’re planning to create a fake AI hologram of Blessed Sheen.
Interviewer: “If this is successful, I can imagine that other figures from the church's past will be brought back to life in this way.”
Bishop Louis Tylka: “Why not?”
The justification? “If the church is simply going to maintain its practices of the past, we'll become a museum that nobody visits.”
This is all to keep the illusion going that there’s some sort of battle for tradition going on within the post conciliar church.
In reality, there is no such battle. The Vatican knows it has a large share of traditionalists pulling it in the wrong direction, so let’s give them a fight that we can keep contained.
You’re watching “Catholic” Monday Night Raw. Stone Cold Chad Ripperberger sneaks up behind Leo McMahon and whacks him in the back with a folding chair. The crowd cheers and says ‘finally, someone’s standing up to all the corruption.’
In the meantime McMahon’s sales are better than ever, Austin’s renewed contract is higher than ever—even though he was cheated out of the belt—and nobody is looking anywhere else for a less corrupt wrestling federation.
In many ways Ripperberger is the worst of the two below, because he creates an illusion of tradition coming back to the “church.” That ain’t gonna happen. There’s nothing Catholic about either one here and you are being strung along so you don’t start questioning that maybe this isn’t the Catholic Church.
