Having finished my term running Scum & Villainy for my group, I get to play again—this time in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (4th ed).

We all rolled characters, and I scored a human priest. A bit boring compared to (say) being a professional graverobber, but still potentially interesting. I've chosen to have him worship Verena (goddess of justice and order), so we'll see how *that* goes.

Naturally I've gone and drawn him.

Orthodox #priest Nikolai #Savchenko was arrested for taking a photo 11 years ago holding the flag of #Ukraine

According to him, security forces detained him right in the church, from where he was taken to court

In 2014, the priest published photographs from the anti-war action on #VK with the #Bible quote: Do not go and start wars with your brothers

The court said the flag was an extremist symbols of the "Organization of #Ukrainian Nationalists". He was given 14 days of administrative arrest

If ya think depriving girls of “fair competition”…
Is the top priority for school kids…
You’re woefully ignorant of all the ways #kids are truly “damaged”…by society…& their own family.

I notice…none of these folks are as furious over…
Health & #education inequities.
To parents, every kid’s a future pro #athlete …right?

A #teacher #priest #coach or #pastor is a bigger threat to your kids than a #trans kid on their #sports team.

#CalvinRobinson finished his remarks at the National Pro-Life Summit by throwing a #Nazi salute, much to the delight of the crowd. Calvin #Robinson, a #euro #farright #priest, finished his remarks by throwing a Nazi salute, to a cheering crowd. Given he gives the same excuse as #ElonMusk, and knows that it was widely considered to be a Nazi salute, there's no way this wasn't a dog-whistle. #West is just rushing to #fascism.

“[T]he church swapped out its priest to set up a #computer and cables in the confessional booth. After training the #AI program in theological texts, visitors were then invited to pose questions to a long-haired image of #Jesus beamed through a latticework #screen. He responded in real time, offering up answers generated through artificial intelligence.”

AI worshippers have come full circle.
