Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Well, the word was made flesh, and dwelt amongst us, so eating the body and blood of Christ is just a metaphor for wholehearted acceptance of the word of God.
That was always the way I saw it, anyway.
If you are Catholic or Orthodox, it is most certainly not a metaphor. They believe that the bread and wine become the real flesh and blood of Christ on a metaphysical level.
