@pureMetatron Yes. I also find BCE and CE confusing & a bit of a mouthful too.
BC/AD has both more simplicity & more gravitas to it.

@theAliceRoberts Yes. I’m a person of faith, but I’m greatly disturbed by how religion is being used to foster blind obedience to a political leader and/or movement, to cover up horrendous abuse and exploit people financially.

@holland_tom Paul called himself the worst of sinners. So probably him 🤣

Some of my Catholic & Orthodox might disagree with me (that’s ok- I still love ya) but biblically speaking a #Saint is simply a word for anyone who is a genuine Christian.
It’s not just special canonised people. It’s ordinary Christians too. ‘Saint’ derives from Sanctus which means ‘set apart’

Small point, worth making, but there's actually no such thing as a saint. It's just made-up religious gobbledegook nonsense. You're welcome. 🏴

@JuliaHB1 According to the Bible, a ‘saint’ is basically anyone who is a genuine Christian. You don’t have to be canonised. It derives from the word Sanctified, meaning to ‘set apart’.

@Keir_Starmer Thank you Prime Minister.
The original #StGeorge was a man of exceptional courage & conviction. It’s no surprise he became a symbol for hope for so many. #StGeorgesDay

@Franklin_Graham @realDonaldTrump I love reading the Bible, but I’m not as keen as performative religion for political ends.
Salvation doesn’t come from simply reading the Bible. It comes from doing what it says. Which is to repent.

Grateful for a president who is unashamed to read the Bible from the Oval Office! President @realDonaldTrump read this important passage last night for @AmericaRTBible. I’ll be joining this great event to read Luke 10—which includes the parable of the Good Samaritan—on Friday!

President Trump read 2 Chronicles 7:11–22 during "America Reads the Bible," joining nearly 500 leaders in a weeklong event honoring America’s 250th anniversary.

@ThePosieParker I agree when it comes to roles where the worker needs to be female. Like DV shelter etc…
But I don’t agree with refusing to employ someone to stack shelves at Tescos or mow the park lawn.
English
Of course men larping as women should be refused employment.
Who wants to work with them? Who wants to be a customer wherever they work?

Happy 21st Birthday to #YouTube.
There are some incredible #HISTORY YouTube channels on there who pretend well researched history in a way that engages their audience.
Many of these channels have helped & inspired me to write my books. #YouTube21
