@JakoSloth Media in some way, voiced over with edits to show what’s happening or maybe pastel art to accompany each line. Unsure yet, but this short story is very important to me

@HariSel57511397 Disagree depending on the book. Knowing story elements beforehand hand puts me off from reading. Granted if the spolier is vague enough I won't have an issue.

I really dislike the idea that a thing is ruined because you can't experience it for the first time twice--which is what the spoiler discourse boils down to.
The first experience is emotionally strongest, but it's also the most vapid and least interesting part of viewing art.
Isaac Young@HariSel57511397
The idea that spoilers mean anything in the modern day is idiotic. This whole fascination with the sacredness of the first experience is sick because it disregards the more important actual meaning of the text. I spoil the plots for my own books all the time. I'm just happy that people love them enough to care.

Christ explicitly says to Pilate "it is he who handed me over to you who has the greater sin".
Plus there are numerous hints that the Romans aren't really the main enemy.
The Roman centurion has greater faith than all Israel (hence we use his words in the Mass - "only say the word and my soul shall be healed...").
John the Baptist doesn't tell Roman soldiers to lay down their weapons, he just tells them to be content with their wages.
In fact, Jesus says almost nothing negative about Romans at all.
And Daniel 9 says the people of the Messiah will destroy the Temple, hence the Romans will become the people of the Messiah.
And Rome remains the centre of the Church.

Why is it that Pontius Pilate is not more of a villain in Christian history? When reading the New Testament for the first time, I was shocked to see that Pilate is depicted more as doing his Roman duty and not as a satanic force

@JadeAtrophis Reminds me of a story from an ortho YT channel about the time a monk prayed for satan's redemption.

Is there a name for this phenomenon where you really like something but the fandom is so obnoxious with the glazing that you almost don’t wanna like the thing anymore?

@MChoiceStudios I forget. Is there supposed to be 8 or 7 books to complete this series?

@LegMan100 Go with the first Incarnation or the MCU one. The guidebooks can be unhelpful or contradictory at times.

One thing that bothered me about the Dale Gribble power scale is with the glowing green box potentially being the time stone from Infinity.
I would like to mention that there is another item in the box back when the infinity stones were called the infinity gems, that being the soul gem.
Having the soul gem would make more sense for Dale’s spiritual, regenerative and life-force abilities as the soul stone can enhance and alter the aspects of the soul either though draining the life to sustain yourself or potentially resurrecting yourself due to the soul gem being the one gem that has a vast living space inside it.

@literaturedevil The ones who facilitated the hand over is more at fault.

Handing over Marvel and DC comics to spoiled, narcissistic, Millennial women was a mistake.

Alpha male among alpha males Bruce Wayne has been reduced to a sad little simp. Tell me there is no war on masculinity.
