<2022-11-14T00:17:34.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Heard you like opals. It just happens that opal cutting is our shop's specialization. Don't have money for your ministry because my own family is hurting there, but I have gem rough and time. Could I make you something for you or to help you out with a present for Mrs. Super Lutheran? Hit me back and let me know.
<2022-11-14T18:15:12.000Z> SuperLutheran: Brother that's an amazing and generous offer.
<2022-11-14T18:16:26.000Z> SuperLutheran: If it's possible, a goose pendant (as simple or complex as you'd like, whether the head or the whole bird) would make for a fantastic present for my wife.
<2022-11-14T18:16:55.000Z> SuperLutheran: Geese are her favorite animals, and we both share opals as our birth stone
<2022-11-14T18:25:30.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: I'll see what I can come up with.
<2022-11-14T19:02:17.000Z> SuperLutheran: Awesome brother, thank you for the offer!

<2022-11-14T19:09:20.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Some of my work. I’ll do the best I can with what I have on hand.
<2022-11-15T16:41:36.000Z> SuperLutheran: Dude you have some fantastic talent
<2022-11-15T16:41:49.000Z> SuperLutheran: These are some beautiful pieces fren

<2022-11-16T19:43:17.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Thinking it will be like this flying over a pool of opal.
<2022-11-16T19:43:29.000Z> SuperLutheran: Excellent!
<2022-12-12T02:55:09.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Hey, just wanted to let you know I haven’t forgot about this. I got the second opal cut today but one cracked and I have one to go. Wife was after me about getting other orders done first. I should have it ready to mail by Thursday. What PO Box should I use?
<2022-12-12T11:32:43.000Z> SuperLutheran: Thank you sir, I never doubted u
<2022-12-12T11:33:46.000Z> SuperLutheran: 644 main st, PO #382, Oley PA, 19547
<2022-12-12T11:48:55.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: 👍
<2022-12-16T17:52:46.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Package is out. All I can do is cross my fingers. They illegally would not let me refuse a return address or use Santa’s address, so I sent it from “Black Peter” living under Cobo Hall deep in the heart of niggertown Detroit.
<2022-12-16T17:54:03.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: I’ll keep an eye on the tracking and let you know when it supposedly lands in your PO Box 
<2022-12-17T01:55:37.000Z> SuperLutheran: Yes sir, thank you very much!
<2022-12-17T01:55:55.000Z> SuperLutheran: I'll make sure to send a pic when we receive it
<2022-12-17T05:46:40.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: No need. Just have a merry Christmas with your wife and kids
<2022-12-19T17:56:50.000Z> SuperLutheran: My friend, you have brought great joy to our family. Thank you very much brother! https://i.poastcdn.org/7d22a1a531f909f5cae43fc0d92675173c39ec3cd4039546831e21fcd30efa7b.jpg
<2022-12-19T19:05:30.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Have a blessed holiday.
<2022-12-19T19:06:37.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: The sun is a Mexican fire opal from Chihuahua, the moon is a black opal from Lightning Ridge Australia. Waters below are boulder opal from Queensland

<2023-01-15T12:04:41.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: My dad died yesterday morning of catastrophic multivalve heart failure after an unrelated surgery last weekend. We hadn’t spoken much the last few years after a family breakup because my mom has hated me since I was a child and I couldn’t be the dad I need to be for my kids living with her treatment. She still hates me. I was on the floor beside him until he went cold yesterday morning. I still see his body every time I close my eyes.
<2023-01-15T12:05:33.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: My kids are having a hard time processing everything, and by the time this is all over I know they are going to lost both their grandparents: one to death and the other to abandonment. I’d appreciate it if you could pray for our family during this time
<2023-01-15T12:07:09.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Thanks friend
<2023-01-15T15:59:16.000Z> SuperLutheran: I will absolutely pray for you and your family, for comfort and healing. 
<2023-01-15T16:00:09.000Z> SuperLutheran: My dad died in December 2021, so I know what it's like - though the specifics are certainly different.
<2023-01-15T16:01:41.000Z> SuperLutheran: I pray our Lord gives you the most strength out of everyone close to your father. The hardest part is functioning as a father and husband in spite of emotional signals that tell you to shut down.
<2023-01-15T16:02:12.000Z> SuperLutheran: I'm here if you need anything man. If you want I'm available for voice calls on telegram too
<2023-01-21T02:19:57.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Thanks buddy. We had the funeral today. I couldn’t manage a reading, but I had to be a pall bearer and my kids and I presented the gifts at mass. Cried so hard for my dad. He was a good person.
<2023-01-21T02:22:23.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: The new battle is protecting his remains until burial. His wishes were cremation, which I don’t like, but the Church does allow as long as the ashes are kept whole. His brothers and sisters and cousins have descended with everyone demanding some of dad’s ashes. I tried to explain that the Order of Christian Funerals requires the body kept together for burial. The response? “Fuck the Church. You can tell them whatever you want. Who needs their stupid rules?”
<2023-01-21T02:23:06.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Boomers man. Is it any wonder our country ended up so lost?
<2023-01-21T13:27:52.000Z> SuperLutheran: Hot dang man, that's ROUGH. Grieving people are often unreasonable as it is, but it sounds like your family is caring more about their memories of your dad than honoring his wishes. 
<2023-01-21T13:28:26.000Z> SuperLutheran: Our Lord bless you for doing your best to honor your father in the right way, not letting his remains be torn asunder. 
<2023-01-21T14:25:08.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: My aunt was asking me to keep the ashes and make something into jewelry. I told her dad has to be buried whole. And then she says “Oh you can just tel the priest whatever. I still have some of my son’s ashes.” She scattered the rest of him in the ocean. My brother and I just looked at each other like, “What the fuck?” Why would you go and confess you believe in resurrection of the body and eternal life and then do whatever the fuck you want. When I see how their generation respects God it’s no wonder almost everyone my age was lost to atheism.
<2023-01-21T14:25:18.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: Thanks for your prayers.
<2023-01-21T14:32:14.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: It’s just surreal to see because we are not a holiday only family. When families were larger we produced a lot of vocations. My dad had an aunt and uncle who were a cloistered nun and a priest, and he grew up as an altar server in the Latin mass.
<2023-01-21T15:33:34.000Z> SuperLutheran: Oh I hear you man, faith that means it is hard to come by.
<2023-01-21T15:34:14.000Z> SuperLutheran: Even our Lord Jesus asks in Luke 18:8, "when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
<2023-01-21T15:36:34.000Z> SuperLutheran: I sincerely hope that your family sees everything going on and considers their own mortality, leading them to seek a deeper faith in Christ and hope in the Resurrection. 
<2023-01-22T02:45:34.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: “We proclaim your death, O Lord, and profess your resurrection until you come again.”
<2023-04-18T18:48:00.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: I sent my brother your last episode with Bane. Even without mentioning it, he said how scarily similar his story was to a friend of mine who killed himself a couple years ago.My friend grew up without a father and being abused by his mother's boyfriends. He ran away in high school. Guy was pretty much an autistic genius, but being in the programming world put him in touch with deviants. And that was terrible given he had no strong self identity or beliefs of his own.When gay marriage was the cause de jour they got him to marry a man. When furries were the cause de jour he went down that rabbit hole. When the trannies came to power they mailed him troon drugs and got him to pay a doctor to cut his balls off after hours.He spent all his time looking for acceptance from others. And unfortunately he thought he was too smart for therapy and too smart for God.There are so many people like my friend who end up groomed to death by these abusers. I appreciate anyone willing to speak so clearly about this and show people who have gotten trapped that there can be a way out.Thank you guys for covering this.
<2023-04-18T18:57:43.000Z> SuperLutheran: Happy to be of service, brother
<2023-04-18T18:58:13.000Z> SuperLutheran: I hope God blesses Bane's socks off for being brave enough to come on and talk about his experience
<2023-04-18T19:54:25.000Z> istvan@bozgor.org: 👍
