Well, "Lutheran" is kinda inaccurate in some ways. Luther began the Reformation movement and is generally considered our greatest theologian, but Hus came before him and Luther said he was a Hussite. And we also don't follow everything Luther believed

You'll also hear "Evangelical Catholic"

Which is actually the older term

They were originally known as "evangelische"

Talking to ordinary people about christian teachings is like trying to pull out a wallowing pig from it's own shit.

Yeah, except that's a bad analogy because pigs don't like to live in their own shit. The idea that pigs like wallowing in their own shit is a myth propogated by ignorant city dwellers. Pigs DO like to wallow in MUD but that is because they don't have sweat glands to keep them cool. However, they will only lived in their own shit if forced to due to factory farming, but any animal will do that. I live in cattle country. I see cows do it all the time

Not really germane to the actual topic, but ignorant city slickers who use bullshit agricultural analogies are really fucking obnoxious

I live in a village we just never had pigs don't hurt me man 😦

Lol, no worries man. You should think about raising them sometime. Growing your own bacon in the way to go

"“준비하여라. 베들레헴아, 에덴은 활짝 열렸
노라. 에브다라야 장식하여라. 동정녀로부터
동굴에 생명나무가 피어났음이로다. 우리가
그 나무 열매를 먹으면 아담처럼 죽지 않고 생
명을 얻느니라. 그리스도는 추락된 하느님의
모상을 다시 일으키기 위해 태어나시도다"

Korean Translation(Text above) with Troparion for the Prefeast of the Nativity
Repost because I mistakenly post on Prayer-request channel 😄

My favourite Troparion

I can't read Korean

@󠀂 󠀂 Same meaning with English and Greek lyrics

I could got the English lyric easily because the Korean lyric is literally translated.

>well known to associate with the local traditionalist basket cases.

>Normies catholics still invite you to parties and socials.

Have I achieved peak optics?

Optics?

Nobody invites me to socials

I just go to bars or by myself to the liquor store

Same

I mean I am a regular at my bar so I get invited to bar socials

But my normie college friends abandoned me ever since I yelled at some street shitter

Peak optics, referring to how people view you. So the Trads don't think I'm soft, and normies don't see me as completely unapproachable....yet.

The priests in our community are convinced we're a gang though.

It's pretty funny.

Oh

I mean i'm kind of optic because nobody knows how far right I really am

Speaking of which...

Actually the trads in my area think I'm extreme because I am religious
