“The blood of Christ nourishes and feeds all living things,” my friend, iconographer priest William Hart McNichols told me during a recent conversation about Julian of Norwich, “just like our earthly mothers feed and sustain us in the womb.” Who but a mother, Julian asks, would break herself open and pour herself out for love of her children?

Broke: Jesus was a cis man.

Woke: jesus was trans! he only had X chromosomes from mary! which means he was afab!

Bespoke: The side wound of Christ was the passageway that first birthed the Church and through which we may enter into the womb of Christ. For hundreds of years Christians encountered Christ in the Eucharist and believed that Christ’s body bleeds and feeds not unlike their understanding of the role of a woman’s body. Not only did they consume Christ’s body and blood (the realm of women) in the Eucharist, but also Christ’s soul and divinity (the realm of men), traversing the medieval European perception of gender. Furthermore, it is the essence of Christianity that Christ is fully God incarnate, the Divine embodied in human flesh. God knows no gender, as God is beyond human constructs and binaries. Yet, in a mystery, God encompasses all genders, as all humans throughout time and culture are made in the Image of God. Regardless of Christ’s physical, biological sex characteristics or gender identity while being as a tabernacle among humanity, Christ is not bound to our earthly notion of gender, and yet we — in our glorious variety and diversity — are reflections of the Divine.

#look look look I’m not hear to dump on people in the X chromosome camp #if that fills your christology with meaning and draws you closer to Christ who am I — a rando on the internet — to deny you #it’s just unimaginative imo #where’s the spice?#where’s the pizzazz?#where’s the razzle dazzle?#but all jokes aside if anyone comes across a bleeding communion wafer I would love to know the results of the genome sequencing #thoughts #Christian #Jesus #Christ as Mother #side wound summer #mysticism

I just wanna say bc I KNOW you're somewhere on tumblr, to the teenage girl who attended Take Your Kid To Work Day at an office building in Ontario, Canada circa 2013 and had a conversation with a middle aged woman in which you showed her your Black Veil Brides fanart and fanfics and ship content and told her about different fanfic tropes including a/b/o verse bc she happened to know who Panic! at The Disco and Fallout Boy were and thus you felt the need to show her your bandblr ship art, that was my fucking mother and I had to clarify all that to her including looking my mother in the eye and trying to explain a/b/o verse without sounding like a lunatic.

It's been 10 years and I still regularly sent evil energies in your direction. Since you'd be probably two years younger than me and thus legally an adult now, please know if this post reaches you it's on sight.

#she cornered me in the car and asked what shipping was and i almost had a fucking heart attack #imagine being like 16 years old and habing to explain knotting to your mother #random emo music girl I'm glad you had fun talking about your Band Guys to my mother #bc i also attended take your kid to work day at that office and i know how boring it was #but christ alive why did you have to fuck me like that?#anyways i hope this post reaches you so at the very least you know i think about you at least once a week #this has been weighing on me for ten years #im almost tempted to blaze this post

I want a story where the angels didn't fall, they jumped. they clipped their own wings, knowing their Master wouldn't have a use or a need for them once they were damaged and less-than-holy. they could not defeat the Tyrant who exerted absolute control over their lives, so they abandoned heaven their homeland in exchange for independence, accepting exile as its own form of freedom. and hell is just the place where all unwanted things are sent--be they angels or souls who just will not obey.

#been looking through old story ideas and remembering that as a teenager #i processed religious trauma by turning it into blasphemous creative writing #there's also the story where the protagonist was a vampire and a friend of jesus's mom #and so was personally responsible for the resurrection of christ #and the one where satan was the mother figure of all the angels in heaven #and the 'Rebellion' was actually satan leaving her abusive spouse to protect her kids #anyways i have many feelings about being raised christian and all of those feelings are Spite

My mom and my catholic friend helped me become ‘reborn’ and Jesus talked directly to me through a book, he told me we were chill and he loved me and stuff. I was very shocked that Jesus Christ was just suddenly talking to me through books.
