    I think this will be my Guy if I ever make one for twitter. Kpop fanatic for Orthodox Christianity. I'm in the Byzantium Boy Brigade and warn people about how it's a sin to eat too much corn or whatever they believe. I'll reclaim the #patriarchy tag from feminists. Over time I'll become a Skoptsy cultist and move to the right of Jordan Peterson, defending Christian values by demanding people cut their penises off as the ultimate form of washing them.

        As a filthy western papist, Jordan Peterson is incapable of linking the simple act of washing with the simple act of cutting. I ask you brother RNAi, did Jesus our LORD not wash the feet of a man to honour him? Did Jesus our LORD not bleed for humanity as his most sacred and final act? Why do you stray from the lamb of god and refuse to prevent lust at its SOURCE? Did god not smite Sodom for its lust in the Orthodox bible that's probably the same but all cubist-looking?

          I'm pretty sure peterson isn't a papist, but I could be wrong. I also refuse to look it up.

            He probably isn't a practicing Catholic, but he's adjacent to tradcaths in his messaging and I don't know anything about orthodox interactions with protestants.

              tradcaths are the weirdest thing I have seen develop. I've spent my whole life, and willl probably continue to spend my life, deeply embedded in Catholicism. I know about a lot of the weird perspectives and reactionary tendencies members of the Church can have. tradcaths feel downright calvinist, they just don't follow from how I've seen and experienced Catholicism. Anyway, neither orthodox nor protestants believe that the Pope is the leader Christianity on earth, so it wouldn't much matter how peterson falls along those lines. And yeah, I agree that he has played into and bolstered the tradcath movement.

      My favorite Guy is the one who starts vaguely mimicing the language of old Bible translations when they try to sound serious. Who in every day conversation says “and I say again to you”?

        True Christian fundamentalists don't believe the English language has evolved since biblical times.
