Jeff Sessions was interrupted by a priest who just directly quoted Jesus at him. Jeff Sessions was speaking about not allowing refugees and immigrants into this country.

The priest was removed. Another religious leader stood up and defended the priest, and they were also removed.

Powerful video. Jesus loves that priest, and that priest knows Jesus.

The other minister is a Baptist pastor, Rev. Darrell Hamilton, who I went to school with at Wake Forest Divinity.

These two? This is true Christianity. This is how you practice your faith.

Poor Jeff Sessions. It really sucks to have people express their religious freedom by using religion to tell you what a horrible hypocrite you are, doesn’t it?

From now on everybody who sees Sessions anywhere should just shout “repent” at him over and over until he either leaves or bursts into flame.

You know, when I was a Catholic I was told the devil wears many faces.

Jeff doesn’t like it when people point out his mask is slipping.

Hear The Oldest Flute In The World

historical-nonfiction:

In 2008, archaeologists discovered fragments of flutes carved from vulture and mammoth bones at a Stone Age cave site in southern Germany called Hohle Fels. They were carved and played by Homo sapiens. These flutes are ancient, dating back 42,000 to 43,000 years, making them the oldest flutes in the world.

The oldest Homo sapiens flutes, that is. There is at least one flute made by a Neanderthal that is older. Found at a Neanderthal campsite at Divje Babe in northwestern Slovenia, the Neanderthal flute is estimated to be over 43,000 years old and perhaps as much as 80,000 years old.

The video above features Ljuben Dimkaroski, who plays trumpet for the Ljubljana Opera Orchestra, and who helped archaeologists figure out how to play the prehistoric flute. Don’t worry! He is playing a clay replica, not the original.

So.

The Sound of Silence is probably one of my favorite songs ever. When speaking of the “true” Simon and Garfunkel version (as opposed to the version where they added background music to in post to make it more “pop radio”), it’s a song that gives me chills.

Disturbed is not a band that I really enjoy. I remember in college, my (now) wife gave me a copy of a Disturbed CD, because she had two for some reason. I tried to listen to it, I really did. Didn’t do anything for me.

But this? Holy fuck, this is stunning. This is amazing.

This gives me chills.

Holy shit, you have to listen to the whole sing. 

I have chills. 

Holy SHIT.

This is the band who did “Down With The Sickness”????

UM?????

If you stop before three minutes you’re missing the truly mind-blowing bit

Absolutely beautiful. I had chills.

DUDE!

Ok, it got a reblog out of me there at the end. 

Fhdjf DUDE

The vocal range on this guy. THE VOCAL RANGE ON THIS FUCKING GUY.

I fuckin love Disturbed and always loved it when they did covers. This is amazingggg

i fucking love this video and i fucking love david draiman and his voice

Fun fact: Paul Simon loves this cover and sent a letter to David telling him so.

What he’s doing? That perfect knife-like clarity to anguished, grating cry? From everything I know about singing, not being a singer myself but having lived with someone who WAS trained, that is NOT easy.  That is VERY difficult.  I’m not acquainted enough with Disturbed to know what his range is like since I’ve only heard a few songs, but just based on this one song, the versatility of his voice is amazing.  It always just blows me the fuck away.
