Still from the Fox Movietone Follies of 1929. This movie is lost.

Haha mildly funny
I love the idea of praying for everyone
I'm a Catholic (I swear I'm not that different from the rest of you Christians; we are siblings in Christ after all), and recently I've been thinking more on theology and how to explain my beliefs to someone whose beliefs differ, such as other denominations. More on that:
First, I'd love to bring to mind the analogy that Christianity and its denominations are like a stained glass window. Some denominations get some light, but not all of it, meaning that those who believe something slightly different are not wrong, per se, they're simply less clued into God's plan and Church.
Now, this is not a conversion post, or an apologetics post, I just wanted to share something that I've found interesting in my deepening look into theology.
To start from the beginning, I'm pretty sure most Christians believe in a Heaven and a Hell. A common misconception, however, is that they are places; they're more states of existence. Just the same as you are alive or dead, you are in Heaven or Hell.
Now, once you get into the theology of Heaven and Hell, a thought comes to mind: Why would a God, who loves us all so much so that he gave us free will and died for us, condemn us to eternal suffering? This then leads to the realisation that since Hell is a complete absence of God, one would have to renounce God and all His works even after death to be put in Hell. Basically, you have to put yourself there. You don't 'go to hell' for being a bad person. You get yourself in Hell by telling God no.
Next, there's this little nag that one may get after realising this. What if God provides you with a chance to say yes to Him? What if He grants you all the knowledge of who He is and how much He loves you so that you may choose Him at last? This is something that I find very beautiful. They say suicide is a sin. It is. But God is not going to condemn you forever for stealing a piece of cake, let alone any other sin. So I believe that even if one commits suicide, even if one throws their gift of life away only to enter a land not controlled by physical enjoyment and physical suffering with a chance of begetting suffering unimaginable to us on Earth, God will still give them a chance: He will stop the passing of time for you, give you as much time as you want to decide, to see His face and feel the love coming from Him. It is then up to you.
And so, with all this in mind, there is very well the chance that nobody is in Hell. There's a chance that God gave wisdom to all those who knew not what they do, solace to those who felt uncomfortable and unloved, and a God to those who felt alone.
To wrap this up, there's this one motion that was thought up, causing the stingy Christians to question their ideals and how open to loving everyone they really are. That motion is the idea to pray that everyone is in Heaven. To pray that even the worst of souls here on Earth saw redemption and took it, leading to another brother or sister of us to live in union with God eternally.
I think that's really beautiful. And it fascinates me that some people find it hard to choose a God like this. I don't blame them, for we all have doubt, and sometimes it fills us too far. But I still pray every day that everyone gets to see God's face forever.
Stay safe y'all, and don't forget that: you're loved and you're not perfect. It's human to sin, and God-given to get back up.

Shit, you got me there
I hate math so much.
pre calc was a year of random stuff that only showed up again if I was bad at it.
ab calc at least fit together (it was still hard though)
now I'm taking bc calc and struggling to do my summer work cause everything they think i did last year (most people are coming from pre calc) had NOTHING to do with what i did last year and I've forgotten everything ;-;
We only have two more episodes before the June 15th arc reset and I'm begging Finknoriams not to kill Lauren off please please please they can't take another baddie from my I'm on my hands and knees sobbing
I haven't been able to properly express my feelings outside of tags much, and this is a bit of a sleep deprived short post that probably won't make sense, but hey. I think Finknor(iams) want so badly for us to see Kevin like Cecil sees Kevin (a terrifying irredeemable cult leader) but every time they've written him before now, they give us so much insight into a man that can change, that isn't defined by solely his church or his time with Strex. A man that IS a cult leader, that DOES have a blood kink, but he's so much more than that. So even if they DO want us to see him as a big bad villain like Cecil does, showing him forgiving/excusing his abusive father's actions and possibly going down a path of following in his father's footsteps just feels... wrong. It feels like it erases so much of what we've learned about him and THAT'S the issue I have here.
