I feel crazy thinking about all the talks I got as an ‘80s teen playing D&D, with urban legends of murders, suicides, and human sacrifice, while 40 years later the purported high point of tech innovation is a real-life murder-suicide incitement machine, and it’s just..fine.
Uh… check out what ChatGPT allegedly told a man before he killed his mother and then himself.

you’ve had a hard year when something called a “hellpsalm” helps put rare feelings into words quite well but absolutely the high point this year — other than graduating from seminary — was getting this signed.

thanks, Pádraig. thank you, also, Mother Brendan.

If you’re aiming to read more in 2026 and are local to Hyde Park/want to join us virtually, come on out for my church’s Theology & Justice reading group! We’re reading some fiction and practical theology in the first three months and taking further recommendations. Holler if you have questions!

yes I’m happy to clarify. when I do it it’s called discourse. when you do it it’s running off at the mouth all wild style and whatnot. these are just technical terms

happy belated birthday to Jesus Christ, Destroyer of Ignorance — as this prayer went
man asks you for a book recommendation that can get him rich overnight. you show him where you keep the Kropotkin. he sings you the most beautiful song his mentor wrote about Jesus Christ in Bengali. you are now both crying in the critical theory section.

watching an evangelical from undergrad try to perform some hermeneutical backflip in critique of nativities maintained by folks i know from seminary reminds me that they don’t know how to read the Bible, really, but the ones who kind of do are still. racist about it.

you liked the new knives out and what it had to say about power, accountability, and dysfunctional congregational bodies? you appreciated a new addition to the Hot Priest Cinematic Universe?

bit of personal theological lore is that when i did the genogram in my first pastoral care class i mapped adverse childhood experiences in my family and it was enlightening in a way i did not expect

who’s gonna gift me this article and help their Christian sibling overcome the paywall

Jesus Had Adverse Childhood Experiences, Too
