So I'm helping teach a woman at my church German. She's a Tatar who speaks Russian, English, and Spanish. Her daughter married a Turkish man from Germany, and she wants to speak to her new son-in-law.

He has this head of crazy old man hair and we love it. 1 equally healthy wife. Also super cute, but not as full of poop. Content: our priest came to the hospital today and did the prayers for childbirth which was really nice. When he comes and does prayers at our home or whatever I never know if I'm supposed to participate in the parts I know or just let him pray. This time I erred on the side of mumbling something resembling prayer.

Well, I like Ben-Hur, but it's debateable on the historical veracity front. As far as versions go, I the film nerd prefer the silent-movie version from the 1920s, but it's a silent movie so ymmv.

do a religion, sing a music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgWm047RU7E (this group of people have a bunch of stuff on youtube, if you want to hear what shapenote singing sounds like when it's not sung at top volume by a hundred people)

Hail Caesar is actually really, really good, and actually very thoughtful theologically. The orthopriest featured in it was, I thought, quite a flattering portrayal of an orthopriest. The Doctor from Voyager makes a very good Rabbi.

pidan posted:Yesterday I watched the movie RISEN with my unchurched nbfriend, and we both really enjoyed it. Are there some similar movies you can recommend? I enjoyed the TV show 'AD: Kingdom and Empire' which is historically a mess but is a p good dramatisation of Acts if you're into that sort of thing. It's probably terrible in a million ways but I liked it.

Senju Kannon posted:it’s a rare religion that has both nuns and transgender nuns I'm 95% certain that there are at least some Hindu ladies-only holy orders that are fine with transgender* individuals. * - i am slightly less certain about whether the exact classification of the transgender individual would be adequately close to, well, transgender as such; there's at least a lot of third-gender sort of stuff in various Hindu traditions, and a shitload of "I'm a dude, but seeking enlightenment by emulating the lover of a god who is also a dude", but I mean, it's Hinduism, there's gotta be some overlap somewhere That second option really is surprisingly common along the intensely religious, lots of people have Rama or Krishna as a Fantasy Husbando.

i don't want to count any chickens before they hatch, but if things go as hoped i will be an uncle soon. and today, i was asked to be a godparent!! now i feel a large amount of responsibility does anyone have some good things to read? the baby will likely be baptized Catholic, but my brother didn't convert so the kid will probably also be raised with some Lutheran influence too

For an unconventional look at the passion, you could always check out Pasolini's "La Ricota." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMNZLBBuZFY Hope you know italian or french!

Pasolini also directed the best straight adaption of the Gospels: The Gospel According to St. Matthew, which even made it on the Vatican's list of recommended films. Ironic in a way, since the man was an avowed atheist.

How do you guys handle interfaith, interdenominational, or faithful vs faithless relationships? Catholics, was it a point of contention that the non-Catholic had to agree to raise the children Catholic? Is anyone in a marriage with a non baptized person? What are the rules for that? What’s the dynamic of dating a non-believer or even atheist?
