The pope has only been the Pope for like a year. Bob Dylan has been Bob Dylan this whole time. The headline should be "Latest Pope meets Bob Dylan. "
That’s not Bob Dylan! That’s Emperor Palpatine! Run, Mr Pope!
Bob Dylan dresses like I did in high school apparently
What’s up with the hoodie?
The pope is a cooooold motherfucker.
I didn’t even know he was still alive
They elect a new one after he dies.
When the sweet smelling smoke rises above the crowd, the new Dylan is selected
I think it’s more like a Dalai Lama situation. Joan Baez and the ghost of Woody Guthrie secretly raise the child at Big Pink until he’s ready to be unleashed upon the world.
He was asking about the Pope, not Dylan.
How do you know?
I think they were explaining how a new Dylan is picked.
It’s been a long time since we picked a new Dylan, people have forgotten how we do it.
Is this the one where everyone chooses a piece of paper, and the one with the black dot gets stoned to death? Wait, no, that’s that other thing.
No, I think a big group of musicians get together and then there’s something about releasing a large cloud of white smoke. Or is that for a new Willie Nelson?
Fun fact: Bob Dylan is the only democratically-elected, non-hereditary monarch.
What about the artist formerly known as co-Prince of Andorra?
(Diarch, I know)
sorry for the confusion but forreal this is touching on the ceremony whereas a new Dylan is consecrated
Ezio Auditore da Firenze meets Pope Rodrigo Borgia (1499, colorized)
Oh goddamn it… 2 hours too late… had the exact same thought when i saw the photo.
Same. Weird DLC to release for a 17 year old game, but okay Ubisoft. Trying to compete with the Witcher 3, I guess?
It looks like it could be just before the start of AC Embers and after AC Revelations so DLC revelations maybe?
Pope: And… and… I REALLY liked Blonde on Blonde… It… It was like… SO good… it changed my life…
Dylan: OK kid, keep your frock on…
BD once said he made a deal with chief and commander. Now he met with the pope.
isn’t he Jewish?
Jews are allowed to meet the Pope.
Being Jewish also does not preclude one from releasing a Christmas album
Neil Diamond has an excellent one.
no bc they killed Jesus 🙀
You must have been a very slippery baby.
lmao I’m so stealing this
don’t worry, I know they didn’t kill jesus
How are you so sure?
because Jesus never really existed
Then who invented surfing, idiot?
Jesus is a Mexican name, not a Palestinian name
No, it’s Greek: “Hey, Zeus!”
Isa is a traditional Arabic name
I know we’re bullshitting here, but my inner pedant can’t help himself: Jesus was born in Roman-era Galilee, at a time when most people spoke Greek and various forms of Aramaic. Jesus is the Anglo-fied rendering of the Latin spelling of the Greek version (Iesus) of the Hebrew name Yeshua (which could also be translated as Joshua or Hosea).
That’s hilarious😂 I’ve never heard this take before lol
Oh bless you, you haven’t encountered anti-semitism yet, then.
Jews don’t go around killing Latinos
tell that to jered kushnar
That’s only because they dont live next door to each other.
I have lots of latino friends, rarely feel the urge to kill them
Got any Palestinian friends there amigo?
I do have a few.
The Romans killed Jesus, blaming the Jews in the biblical text was a clear tactic to appeal better to Roman converts.
Jesus killed jesus (according to the author of Mark) when he didn’t deny to being king of the jews to Pilate after trashing the temple. Thats what killed him. His own fucking hubris in believing he was a messiah sent by god. Thus: Elohi elohi! Why have you forsaken me?
I blame the nails
More the suffocation
Ya, some of those apostles were pretty clingy
never would’ve happened if they just got stoned and listened to Dylan
“Let him who is without dank bud cast the first stone.”
I think he’s a Sith.
Look at him. I think he thinks he’s a sith. Think Bob Dylan is a sw fan?
makes sense
he famously converted to Christianity, although he still practices many Jewish traditions in his personal life, there are Christian faiths that support Jewish people keeping their traditions alive, or practicing both faiths, he’s never been Catholic, but he’s on tour in Italy and considering the Pope’s age and origins, he’s likely a pretty big fan.
interesting, never knew that
Messianic Judaism
Anti-establishment establishment politician
Ehhh not particularly. The bible does show early examples of Christian Jews who kept partaking of Jewish practices after Jesus, but it fizzled out eventually.
In that context, the definition of a Jew wouldn’t be someone who isn’t a Christian.
How I’d categorise it, the religion of Messianic Jews would be Christianity. Messianic Judaism is a denomination of Christianity.
From what I’ve heard, though, it can be a bit of a larp at times.
Jesus was famously a Jew, and he participated in Jewish tradition. It’d be weird for Christians to be against it.
The religion that Jesus participated in became what is now Christianity. Jewish tradition wasn’t obligatory for gentile believers, which basically makes up the majority of the Church now
Not to be confused with modern day rabbinic Judaism which rejects even a lot of what Jews in Jesus’ time held to
Jesus was Jewish. Be would have followed most of the Jewish laws and followed many of the observance less those he believed needed to change. Or would have if he existed
Or would have if he existed
Basically everyone agrees that Jesus existed, was a Jew and was even crucified under Pontius Pilate.
Jesus was Jewish in first century terms, yes. He followed second-temple Judaism. He wasn’t a rabbinic Jew, which is what’s around today.
It’s usually a hard-core larp. Evangelicals who aren’t Jewish level larp
I heard this was a case. The original intention of the movement was for evangelism towards rabbinic jews, but ended up not being the case.
I think part of it as well is that Evangelicals seem to be adverse to historic Christian tradition because it’s “too Catholic” but want something historical and esoteric to cling to, so they just find their own things. Which is sad, because the reformers often held on to tradition (Especially Martin Luther)
That’s a specific group of people, and as far as I know, he’s never been associated with them, it’s more that he’s OK with observing multiple traditions on his own and isn’t particularly associated with one group, but maintains he’s sincere in his Christian faith even in recent interviews, but he also still clearly observes Jewish traditions, which isn’t really a problem with many christen groups, obviously some are very much against any observance but their own.
Ah fair. The first century converts did do this. There was a small phenomena I know of where occasionally ex muslims would still use islamic prayer postures or prayer beads (likely originally Christian anyway) in regards to Christian worship, but most people want to completely shake off an old religion in regards to Christianity (and these cases I heard were actually secret converts living in Muslim households)
There would be an issue if it’s an anti-Jesus rabbinic Jewish tradition. Some believe the Dayenu might be this (which made me question it’s inclusion in The Chosen) but that’s another thing.
And a Zionist.
Gross
What’s with the hoody? Show some respect, dude.
He’s showing the same amount of respect as the pope is. Leo didn’t even bother to inflate his pope hat
Dylan is more important than the pope
That’s a race to the bottom
Bob Dylan will be remembered forever. You won’t :D
the annoying zionist pretentious fraud that sounds like Donald Duck and can’t sing?
Buzzwords. He has made a more positive impact on the world than you ever will. Die mad.
Is wearing a hoodie disrespectful?
I had never in my life heard that wearing a hoodie was disrespectful or disreputable until Trayvon Martin
I think if you have no sense of humor it is
I think my irony was wasted on most.
