Current Pope rules. He’s said that being gay isn’t a big deal and we should help the poor and capitalism isn’t the answer and it’s made so many reactionary Catholics frothing mad and they can’t do anything about it. I think some have posted poo poo like “Not my Pope!” as if that’s how it worked at all lol

FWIW the GPT-3 AI says that it can do tarot readings and poo poo so if there's any demand for witchcraft in Cspam, just ask me and I can ask the computer do it and tell you the results. It's a lot more efficient and the AI doesn't mind people laughing at tarot or being uncompensated for its labor.

yes. take note the Mothman was the spirit world trying to climb back in through the wrinkle created in space-time by CIA's LSD anti-mass spectormeter experiments and they had to silence it.

IIRC there’s no good evidence that Attestupa was ever a real thing, blood eagles either.

Same deal with Celtic Druid poo poo, those dumbasses only ever passed knowledge through spoken couplets instead of writing stuff down so nobody knows what the gently caress. There’s a surviving depiction of one that seems to show a druid priest dressed as a giant acorn, not that flowy white garment stuff made up recently. Which makes sense, if you’re going to have some animism based around European forests the oak is gonna be top tier.
