@TimRunsHisMouth @RaheemKassam Interesting. Since when are you supporting trans ideology? You're saying a person who's biologically female is a man.

@KurtSchlichter You evidently think your audience consists of very docile and suggestible three year olds.

@KurtSchlichter There's nothing magical about the activity of having an opinion that renders it inherently correct. But--provided the erring party be a Trumper-- you '...deny the cat...':

@Kolchak324478 @KurtSchlichter You're right, of course. It's just that I feel such curiosity I can't help hoping to find out the answer.

Archaeo - Histories
Archaeo - Histories@archeohistories·
In 1106 AD; Germany, a family makes a choice that seals their daughter's fate before she's old enough to understand it.... She's eight years old. They send her to a Benedictine monastery, not for schooling, not for a season. Forever. She's an oblate, a living gift to God. Her childhood ends the day she arrives. Her name is Hildegard, and she should have disappeared into history like countless others. But something else is happening inside her mind. Visions. Blinding, celestial floods of light and imagery that she can't control and barely comprehends. She calls them "the living light." They're so strange, so overwhelming, she tells almost no one. For thirty years, she keeps this secret locked inside, unsure if it's divine, if it's madness, or if anyone would ever take her seriously. Then at forty, everything changes. She hears a command she can't ignore. Write it down. All of it. So she does. What emerges is breathtaking. Scivias, a theological epic bursting with symbolic visions of creation and salvation, unlike anything her era had seen. Medical texts cataloging hundreds of plants, stones, and treatments with a precision that wouldn't be matched for centuries. Seventy original compositions of sacred music, so hauntingly unusual she's now recognized as one of the first named female composers in the West. But Hildegard doesn't stop at writing. She founds two monasteries. She writes to emperors, popes, kings, not with deference, but with authority. She corrects them. Challenges them. She preaches in public, breaking every rule that says a woman has no right to speak. She becomes a prophet, a healer, an intellectual force that even the most powerful men in Europe can't dismiss. And then the world forgets her. For eight hundred years, her name fades into footnotes. It takes until 2012 for the Catholic Church to finally canonize Hildegard of Bingen and name her a Doctor of the Church, one of only four women ever given that honor. She was locked away at eight. She turned that cage into a stage that echoed across a millennium. Some people refuse to stay small, even when the world demands it. Hildegard didn't just write music, she invented an entirely new language. Called Lingua Ignota, it contained over 1,000 words and its own alphabet. Scholars still debate whether it was a mystical code, a philosophical experiment, or an early constructed language centuries before Esperanto. She also described her migraines in such vivid detail that modern neurologists have used her writings to study the visual phenomena of severe migraines. Her descriptions of zigzagging lights and fortification patterns match what we now know as migraine auras, leading some to believe her visions were partly neurological. Despite her massive influence, Hildegard was nearly canonized multiple times throughout history but the processes stalled or were abandoned. It wasn't until Pope Benedict XVI finally declared her a saint and Doctor of the Church in 2012, more than 800 years after her death, that she received the official recognition many believed she'd earned centuries earlier. #archaeohistories

The crypt at Hexham Abbey is one of the surviving marvels of 7th century Anglo-Saxon architecture, once part of St. Wilfrid's original stone church.
