these people said "what if we had a church that was also a country with a monarchy" and then cooked for like 800 years

edit: although I think the actual borders only got defined in like the 20th century?

Back in the day (i.e 2015), .vu custom domains were pretty popular with Tumblr bloggers - I think Vanuatu gave away free urls?

Linked in the article: the designer/programmer has now done the obligatory "Well I didn't think there was anything wrong with it" AI bot post mortem interview with a Catholic blog.

"AI gore, smug and pretentiousness" is a good summary of the sneer-subject of this server.

The actual Vatican seems to use its own .va domain name, which neatly sidesteps the .com vs .org dilemma.....but doesn't explain why they let randomers use catholic.com and catholic.org.

Is it an offence against the church for a group of lay theologians to ordain an AI? no idea. It is very funny though

Yeah, but there was a lot of blood under the bridge before they could make a truce. But I'd never heard of the truce, that's beautiful. ETA: sadly it seems the truce didn't hold more than 10 years, which is still pretty good. The original Israel-Egypt treaty it was based on seems to have held for about 4 years

Ah yes, the Bloods and the Crips. Because those two gangs are well known for peacefully coexisting (?!?!?!?)

This is literally the same conversation therapy approach they use against gay people lol* the idea is that people believe they're gay because they are insecure about not being traditionally masculine or feminine enough (usually due to a bad relationship with their parents) and if they just learn how to be masc enough/fem enough then they'll be able to be heterosexual.
