I can't believe this clue had nothing to do with Martin of Tours. The answer was easy enough, but

Since it’s on some people’s minds this week, here’s a thing I wrote a while back

www.grunge.com/483498/what-...

What Does The Bible Say About The Rapture? - Grunge

The conception of the rapture doesn't appear in the Bible. It arose out of developments in thought during the Great Awakenings of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Bishop: Did you complete the painting of San Sebastián for the altarpiece

Painter: Yes, your eminence, and we made him real fucking sexy just like you asked

The image shows a large religious painting depicting Saint Sebastian, a Christian martyr traditionally portrayed as being bound and shot with arrows. In this painting, he is standing semi-nude, with a red drape partially covering his lower body, and arrows piercing his body. The painting is part of an ornate, gilded architectural setting, with elaborate gold-decorated columns and frames.

It's very comforting when @apocrypals.bsky.social is reading a fight scene from some ancient manuscript that would fit right in to a modern anime. It's good to know every society has evolved a goku figure
