is that when the bishop tickles you in the rectory?

apparently, it's this:

A Christingle is a symbolic object, related to the pomander, used in the advent services of many Christian denominations. A Christingle consists of:
an orange representing the world;
a red ribbon around it representing the blood of Christ;
dried fruits skewered on cocktail sticks pushed into the orange, representing the fruits of the earth and the four seasons; and
a lit candle pushed into the centre of the orange, representing Jesus Christ as the light of the world.[1]

The base of the candle is commonly wrapped in tinfoil. This is purely functional.

I don't know about the other stuff, but "holding a candle" is actually a pretty simple operation commonly executed without burning down buildings.

i got talked into going to a preachy summer camp by the cute blond girl next door

they had a big rear end zipline that went from a forested hill down into a lake and a nice pool and horseback riding and it was all free

the next year i learned that if i wanted to go back for free i had to talk 10(?) other kids into going and realized why she'd invited me

was about to ask if it was eagle lake in CO.
buddy next door was going on a 2 week mountain climbing retreat.
i'm sure it was godawful expensive, but it was rad as hell except for the campfire fellowship sessions.
14 days of getting told pokemon is atheist propaganda.
guide dude found out i was interested in philosophy (because i couldn't help but argue with him,) and tried to recruit me to a christian apologetics society online.
also a girl with us had severe paranoid schizophrenia and everyone around her intrepreted her hallucinations as actual visions of real, truly present, demons, and my concern was met with hostility.

loves you

john 3:16

for god so loved the world, that he gave his only son, so that you may have life (this is from my memory)

basically... well. its complicated. the wages of sin are death (or so they say). and back in the OT (olde testemante) this meant just dying. but now all of a sudden there is an afgterlife? anyway nbd just make sure you ask jesus for forgiveness for your sins. he took the pain of everyones sin when he died and through him God can see you as you were ment to be.

now there are a couple of schools of thought., the prominent being calvinism and armenism. calvinism is basically, god planned everything (including fifty cent and goatse) and if he wants you to be saved, you get fuckin saved god drat it. its a classic pre-destination. free will is an illusion blah blah blahd
aemrinismes is basiclaly like what most peope think by defualt. you;re born lovely and you choose to get saved. apparently this is BAD becvause that means that YOU did something, you chose to walk into church and you did something and it goes against the idea that people are 100% (not 99.999999999%) sinful and that humans CANNOT POSSIBLY do anything AT ALL to move themselvs towards god and the implication that you personally made a decision to follow christ well i guess you can see the problem

the bible ( the contemporary christian bible with 66 books) preaches both points and for a chrsitisna its lkiek why for a non christian (a nomry) its easy its becausr the bible is made up poo poo from deluded mega faggots but dont tell the pope. although tbf this pope is a good pope. like good for humanity not just pro-wprthlessness

too long... didn't read.

yeah my parents went to some super elite bible study where you could meet a guy who saw demons, or something back in the 80s

When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, �Come!� 8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him.

this thread gives flashbacks of the gentle old chem teacher that tried to convert me.

i used to come by his office and chat from time to time the moment he said "i was once like you but then i met this wonderful girl in highschool who opened my heart me to jesus" i was like "i gotta go.... place" and i just left and never talked to him again.

i felt like a kid being groomed. the guy ruined gentle old men for me forever and now i can only trust old ppl if they are total assholes.
