      Also no splatter or misting, indicating laminar flow

          It is guided by the Holy Spirit themselves!

    Looking deeper into this, it seems to be based on a wet dream that a monk had about the Virgin Mary. Which is pretty awesome that it became one of the reasons he got sainted.

    If there’s an after life, I really hope the other saints give him mad shit about this. And like, he still can’t make eye contact with Mary, even though it’s been centuries.

      I looked even deeper into this, and it turns out that the monk had the wet dream because the other monks did a giant bukkake on his face while he was sleeping. Boy, the pranks those brothers used to pull!

    These assholes are so fucking nutty.

    I’ve been wondering a lot about the “virgin” Mary recently. I mean there must be many millions of young women who have gotten pregnant out of wedlock. How did the planets align for Mary such that people just seemed to believe that she was a virgin and that her pregnancy was a miracle from god?

    I get that most things about Christianity require “faith” - as in it all just fits together if you just believe that it should - but this seems to me like an absurdity even in that context.

    Like if a young church going woman today fell pregnant and claimed that she was a virgin, would anyone believe her? Hardly.

          But the deep, deep shame gives the kink an extra finish. It’s really quite something.

    Bernard does not receive the milk from a personal Marian apparition but from a statue.[2]

    Well that explains it. 😶

    I misread it as “location” and thought the line was indicating his gaze was focused on her chest. Wild to realise what it actually was!

    Imagine having to explain that. “I have-a created my masterpiece. Issa very good, very holy, you’ll-a like eet!” “Fantastico! What’s it of?” “Well…”

    Edit:- I don’t know why Cano has been voiced as Mario, but here we are
