Flame is the visible part of fire. We’re used to orange/yellow flame, which is light emitted from soot heated by the reaction between oxygen and its fuel. Electron transitions in pure elements emit a specific set of frequencies, though—this is why heating copper in fire changes the flame color

Lowkey feeling the exact same way @ TEC right now!

This is my view as well. Doing something like this in a Mar Thoma church would be met with… something less than approbation.

The text of the musical meditation, sent without context from a priest to a layperson, would be grounds for an immediate Title IV charge.

Together with this is the fact that fruits and vegetables can, in the right climate, grow on their own, while animal husbandry is more-or-less a daily obligation.

This is one thing that large parts of New Jersey actually get right, probably due to most of the coastline having only been developed in the 19th century as railroad resorts.

Welcome home!! (Having come from ELCA to TEC, my annoyance with Rite 2 began with the use of “you” in lieu of “who/m” in the Collect for Purity.)

I’d be less opposed to it if SEPTA did what I need it to do. At this point, I fundamentally don’t have confidence in its ability to get me from A to B.

What is less clear is just how congestion pricing would work without just dumping traffic into adjacent neighborhoods. Manhattan, being an island, is a much easier control case.

It’s crying out to be Perp or Deco Gothic, and - surprise! - gets a steep, Early or even French roof plopped on.

Some good stuff there, though I’m not entirely convinced by the scissor trusses in the Nave.

Not of the sort that could lead to consecrated Hosts being flung around the sanctuary!

A necessity! But Fortescue is sadly silent on what to do about wandering wasps on ciborium knops.

1. Just as it is. No reason to change a classic.

I’d say it’s mostly the latter - per Tract 61, “The desire of novelty is restlessness; the maintenance of our own novelty is selfishness.”

There isn’t a single worship resource post-1970 that I’d have someone take with them to, say, Basic Training. They’re too fiddly and group-centric.
