I had never seen a preacher — and/or whatever the Episcopal Church’s Bishop Budde is — single out ‘n give a nasty lecture to an audience member. Pastor Lorenzo Sewell helped me to make since of what I had saw:
“I was in her service. I was physically sitting next to the First Family. What was so sad about this bishop, she had the opportunity to preach the gospel,” Sewell said.
“She had the opportunity to talk about the death, the burial, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. She had the opportunity to bring people into the faith,” Sewell added. “It was a salvific moment instead of using the authority of the word of God to preach the message of Christ and to draw our president closer to Jesus. She used it to practice what I call theological and spiritual malpractice.”
***
“It was awful. It was so bad. I’m grateful my wife was not there. She would have ran out of that church,” Sewell said. “I cannot believe that she would use that moment to speak a demonic message as if she was using the Bible. She used her platform to practice theological malpractice.”
She whom will not be mentioned, but initials are AA, did this a long time ago.
Now, I have first sleep, second sleep, and third sleep. OK, I am 78 years old Male.
I think it’s funny how often things are advertised as “medieval” which were common to Socrates and Ben Franklin and all between. Pretty much anyone pre-Victorian.
Also I notice referring to “Western” practice without any reason to think it differs from that of other cultures.
I have a good friend from grad school who is a typical democratic liberal, bordering on left, with a mild case of TDS. Generally he is a good guy except his politics blinds him to some obvious facts. I follow his FB page just to see what’s up, and also it’s a great way to monitor the thoughts of the more looney left as many of his friends fall into that category.
Things were quiet after the election, but have burst forth since Monday. On Tuesday there was much anguish about how we’re all going to die and the country will descend into Nazism, and how RFK is going make everyone drink bleach, etc etc. No rational thought at all, just complete mental breakdowns. Today, lot’s of reposts from left social workers and psychologists about how the flurry of executive orders is intentionally designed to keep all these poor people in a state of disequilibrium. Along with much advice on how to keep their mental health intact in the face of such horrendous events. I hate to tell them, their mental health is tong gone.
Just wondering if Neo has seen similar reactions from here lib friends. It really is fascinating to watch.

You leave Ann Althouse alone!
they are nutz and their therapists are not likely to be much better, are there enough straight jackets,
the Druid priestess was not helpful again we need to recurr to yeats, how did he see so clearly a century ago
the good reverend had power Word, but these well worn nostrums, well Henry Tudor might have reconsidered the whole project,
perhaps there is a reason why Islam is a leading faith in the angel isle

Trump’s team has certainly seemed much more prepared this time than in 2016. Firing buckshot everywhere so that the Lefties don’t know what to complain about first and can’t concentrate. Plus, so many rabbit holes for those morons to go down (Scott Jennings asked some NYT cat lady on CNN if she’s a Salute Truther, heh).
I’m crediting Susie Wiles.
they don’t have room for real outrages, because thought crime
there is more about cigar store indian starmer and his coverups,
Trump is, as you say, well prepared for his second term. The flurry of executive orders is done to establish priorities, and to put his opponents off balance. I notice that many of these orders seek to disable certain parts of the permanent bureaucracy, the swamp if you will. This is a strategic move to take out those that seek to undermine his agenda, to limit what he can accomplish.
Also common to medieval denizens was the bizarre notion that there are only two genders.
Speaking of TDS; yep, there are plenty of folks who believe – still !! – that Trump is a Nazi and that very soon there will be concentration camps here in the USA were Trump’s enemies – those that he considers untermensch – will be imprisoned or executed.
Just illustrates, yet again, that a significant percentage of people will believe absolutely anything at all provided that the message and/or messenger somehow “clicks” with them on an emotional level.
I will surmise that the more educated the individual, the easier it is to brainwash the individual. I have no idea why this may be.
George Orwell said it best;
“There are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them.”
Indeed, if “Biden” and “his” merrye band of LIARS, CRIMINALS, ARSONISTS, ASSASSINS and SABOTEURS has taught Trump—and anyone paying the least bit of attention—ANYTHING, it is that Trump MUST GO MEDIEVAL from the get-go.
its striking how that question is rarely raised, well if you deny the evidence ‘super easy barely an inconvenience;
Second sleep is mentioned in Victorian novels from time to time, but many Victorian novels were set 30 – 40 years in the past. I think that by Victorian times artificial light was cheap enough and widely enough available that people started giving up second sleep, and the mention of second sleep is a signal that the story is set in the past or out in the boonies.
In George MacDonald’s novels, written from 1860 – 1900 but frequently set in rural Scotland in 1830-1850, there’s something called “forenight” where it’s dark but too early to go to bed, and in the summer it never really gets dark at night; and characters in the books that are from England have to have “forenight” explained to them.
Edinburgh is farther north than Kodiak Island; today they have having 9 1/2 hours of light. If you can’t afford much light, except what comes from your peat fire (not much), what are you going to do with 15 hours of darkness? No one can sleep that long.
In more southerly countries they have siestas, and in the more northerly ones they had second sleep, but I don’t know if any European country experienced both.
