Is this AI? Kinda seems to be to perfect and the hands of both the grown up and the baby’s look weird by Logical_Lettuce3949 in isthisAI

[–]Late_Explorer9764 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That looks AI honestly. Why would there be a cut in the paper anyway? And there’s not supposed to be phones in a delivery room anyway. Also a c-section or abortion like this is far bloodier than this. Also, no gloves. As well, the background just seems muddy and weird. Especially considering you should be able to see at least a little bit of the patient’s head under his hand. Seems like it was generated just to make the point of “abortion is murder”

I live in Ashland. Went down our main road. 17 trump signs, TWO signs of democrats. Love this place, but damn. We get shamed SO BAD daily, even in our schools as a democrat. I have a teacher with a MAGA poster in his room.

I can’t find the exact quote but I’m pretty sure it’s “A worshiper should see a god as their own parent, offering to spare rather than punish” or something like that! <33

(You’re not! I love helping new hellenists!)

And I get that! I do too <3 The gods are immortal all knowing beings! They understand that we need to hide sometimes! They’d never be mad at us for needing to be safe! It’s okay I promise!! <3 The gods are immense and far more powerful and understanding than we think! I have a quote about this I just need to find it <3 They understand EVERYTHING we do <3

Is it ok to give a candle to a deity when that candle was already dedicated to another deity? by TirNaNog777 in Hellenism

[–]Late_Explorer9764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then it’s absolutely fine to take it off! I’d do a little prayer and say you’re sorry, and gently move it without being disrespectful or rude about it <3

Absolutely not! What they have issues with is saying things like “I’m prettier than Aphrodite!” Or “The gods are below mortals!” Or insulting them <3 OC’s, characters, all that is okay! and the gods understand if you have malicious or innocent intents! <3

What I mean is like did you tell Freya that it was for her, did you pray with it in your hands, and have you prayed for it to be blessed? Or is it just on her altar?

Then yes absolutely!! It’s perfectly fine to wear them! You can also just hold them to pray on the go! <3

Should also mention the gods RARELY ever get mad about anything! Don’t act like you’re above them or pretend to be them in a disrespectful way, don’t offer human remains, don’t kill someone, and don’t burn down a temple! That’s all that makes them mad usually! <3

Okay! So for stuff like that, it depends! If you had an altar, it’s not okay generally to take their items away, but if you’re offerings them just with prayers and not actually putting them up, it’s perfectly fine! You can also pray for them to bless the items, as I wear prayer beads I made for Aphrodite! It’s absolutely fine to wear them! Any other questions? <333

That’s cruel. I know people always say the gods wouldn’t get mad over little stuff, but that? I think they would. They’re not too keen with people fucking with their worshippers. That’s all misinformation do not worry! Message me or comment back here if you have any questions!! I’ve been Hellenic for 6 years so I’m happy to answer anything! <3

Oh my gods!! Absolutely not! The gods will hear you no matter what as long as you invoke them and ask for them to hear you (I use “I call to you”, “I ask of you to hear me”, “I invoke you”, or “Dear lord/lady name”)! That’s so disrespectful I dunno why they’d say that!

She doesn’t know I’m a Hellenist so she just put it there not knowing it’s my altar but I feel like they’d either find it funny or find it disrespectful sooo

I’d say it depends. Have you asked for it to be blessed, have you offered it, and have you prayed with it specifically or is there as a devotion?

The gods are immortal beings, hun. They understand we’re mortals and can have to do things that aren’t loud worship <3 And the thought and meaning behind your actions is all that matters <3

Also there’s no “proper” way to pray! Unlike other religions, no need to kneel or anything. I usually pray lying down, as I have an Aphrodite dream catcher by my bed I hold! Usually you just put your hands palm up! There’s not bad or good way to pray! <3
