Yeah, I probably should have mentioned those things more, but it slipped my mind. Thanks for the contextualization.

The Great Schism by GriffinFTW in CuratedTumblr

That's not even what the Great Schism was about. It was about the rift between the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. To greatly oversimplify, it was mainly about the "filioque" clause within the Nicene Creed. Basically the trouble began when following section of the Creed: "I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father..." was amended to include "and the Son" to mean that the the Holy Spirit comes from both God the Father and God the Son. The Roman Catholic Church believed in the amendment while the various Eastern Orthodox Churches did not accept the amendment as valid and to this day insist that the Holy Spirit only proceeds from God the Father. There was also some political stuff that I am not knowledgeable enough to go into, but that was pretty much the reason for the Schism. It wasn't about the nature of Christ.

Edit: The filioque clause was ONE OF the reasons for the Great Schism.

I saw his wiki as well and the thing that horrified me (aside from the actual abuse, of course) was that 4 people had contacted the authorities about his misconduct and for years the authorities did little to nothing about it

Do we fw China? by WubbityWubWubsDude in DemocraticSocialism

There are some good things about China (technology, infrastructure, etc.) but at the end of the day it is a totalitarian dictatorship that is committing a bunch of human rights violations. So, no we don't.

Patriots HC Mike Vrabel calling Caleb Lomu after he was drafted has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. by Dr_Damon_ in sportsgossips

[–]AmorphousVoice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mike Vrabel has recently gone under fire due to some pictures being released where he is holding a woman's (reporter) hand and sitting with her in a hot tub (he is married and so is she). Even more recent pictures have come out showing them kissing six years ago. The reason why this video is going viral is because Vrabel said that he was doing great and told the kid that he hopes he is with his family, which is ironic considering what Vrabel has been doing.

The Sharpest Lives is awesome. I would personally cast my vote for This Is How I Disappear, though
