  2. Hey, Dr. #ScottHahn, thank you for deleting your #facebook post where you shared the #DonaldTrump #WhiteHouse greeting full of empty #platitudes for #Easter and #HolyWeek, but NO THANK YOU for posting it in the first place! You are an accomplished #theologian, Dr. Hahn! You ought to have better reading comprehension than this! I just wish I'd been able to see the salty comments I presume you got.

    Ok, you're right
    I just checked at the source, who'd rather have it, so the German Lutheran Church.

    It says, "It is not certain whether #Luther posted them there as pamphlets on October 31, 1517. But the #theologian brought his critical theses to the public, and they were soon translated from Latin into German, printed, distributed, and discussed throughout the country."

  10. He quoted 17th century Dutch #theologian Petrus Van Mastricht. Ya know, good ole Van Mastricht. He quoted a 16th century #Bible – because older is closer to God, maybe – & quoted the #6thCommandment, thou shalt not kill.

    He quoted Thomas Aquinas & John Calvin & one of Roy Moore’s old pals at the Foundation for #Moral Law in Montgomery. He wrote of the “wrath of God.”

  13. I just read this passage from the #Asian Journal of #ThomasMerton and I love it. [I believe he was quoting from "Ramanuja et la mystique vishnouite" by A.M. Esnoul.]

    Merton was an American #Trappist #monk, #writer, #theologian, #mystic, #poet, #SocialActivist and #scholar of #ComparativeReligion. He became deeply interested in #EasternReligions, had been studying them closely for some time, then had a chance to travel to Asia. His Asian Journal is his account of that journey and exploration.

  18. I’ve mentioned before that I created a mastodon account for my dad, an 87-year-old #theologian with a focus on #Ecojustice. @PaulSantmire

    I’d like to find him an instance that allows more than 500 characters, I’ve seen some posts that have a “read more“ option? I’ve done some looking and haven’t found one yet, there’s someone told me about one once do you know if instances that have a slightly higher character limit?

    Johann installed #Gardens at his #Schools to teach hands-on #Botany.

    Johann taught the #Cultivation of the #Mulberry #Tree.

    This was a #Strategic move on his part since the production of #Silk & the care of #Silkworms found #Favor with the #King of #Prussia, #Frederick the #Great.

    Thanks to Johann, both #Teachers & #Students tended the large #Mulberry #Plantation & learned the culture of silk & #Mulberries.
