Hybrid ═  heritage  ⁞  culture  ⁞  values  … … … … …  rooted & constantly_evolving and handed_down through our generations across time & continents
{

• Quick refresher,  the Vikings & Germanic tribes settled in the British Isles (Anglo-Saxons / English) … the Romans & the French shaped the English … the English gave rise to USA … after USA got free of the English,  the "Republic of Texas"  joined USA … and  USA, the sleeping giant, saved  the English  &  the French.  

• The name "Moreign" is  from  ol' times,  the unique spelling signifies the origin / root of this English family-tree and serves to distinguish  us from  the  others  (e.g.,  the many variations of French & English "Morein, Morin", and Portuguese & Spanish "Morena, Moreno").  "Moreign" is pronounced "More–Reign" supposedly a pun that has lived through the generations :-)   

• Despite the hullabaloo of Henry_VIII  breaking away from Rome … our family,  though English,  continued  living our  multi-generational Roman Catholic Faith (not Religion, as " Religion & Politics divide,  Faith & Beliefs unite " ¹²³)  ═  Peace_&_hUmaNITY

 ⤷  in this time of divisiveness & distress … ... sharing our simple way to help see through the noise … … (not preachy) :    

➤  Bible ═ Old_Testament & New_Testament; 

➤  New_Testament ═ Christ's teachings ═ Christianity; 

   [a] Background:  Old_Testament  is Jewish / BACKGROUND_info / pre_Christ ═ not Christ's teachings ═ not Christianity

1 e.g.,:    the 10 commandments are from the Old_Testament … whereas the 1 command in the New_Testament ═ "Love one another"  (John 13:34-35)

   [b]  Extras:  each version / denomination of Chrisitianity has its own EXTRAS … Bible_variations, policies, practices, etc. … 

1 e.g.,:  Catholics do not worship Mother Mary … we embrace / venerate / revere / honour / celebrate  Mother Mary as Our Blessed Mother

… as Jesus gave us HIS Mother as Our Mother … while dying on the cross  (John 19:25-27)  

… some Christian (Protestant) denominations miss / obfuscate that point and do not venerate Mother Mary — the Mother of Jesus  a.k.a. Theotokos

tidbit:  Hindus, Muslims, and people of other Faiths & Beliefs  actually recognize / respect / venerate / revere / honour Mother Mary as the Mother of Jesus
              … and Mother Mary appeared to non-Catholics, across the world, who experienced & bore witness to miracles … even in our life time

crux:   those who choose to see  …  can recognize  …  Mother Mary's sanctity & miracles come from  being  the Mother of Jesus 

   [c]  Discern:  as Christians, it is upto each of us,  to discern Christ's teachings  from all the ADDITIONAL (Background & Extras)  

~and~  it is upto each of us,  to strive,  in our own way,  to embody the 1 command ═ "Love one another" ⇒ Peace_&_hUmaNITY

… respecting  religious_identity requires recognizing each  ― as done in [b], and here — Jewish are not Christians ~&~ Christians are not Jewish
… Judeo-Christian is a modern political term that  blurs,  obfuscates,  conflates,  etc.,  Jewish & Christian religious_identities …

… wonder why?   … who uses it?   … when?   … for what purpose?   … for whose benefit?

☀☀☀  THINK  🤔  

☀  " time — the singular priceless gift — that we are  conditioned  to  ignore & disregard  ~and~  prioritize  what  instead?
—  how do we utilize our gift of time ?  … trade our time=life for what ?  … spend our time with & for whom ?   … why ? " ¹²³

☀  " staying true to oneself ensures you connect with those who get you + who want to be with you + their very presence in your life betters your life & soul
—  aren't they the ones that matter ?  … aren't they the ones you should be sharing your priceless gift of time with?  " ¹²³

☀   IF this family has even a fraction of what they surfaced here … they should know all this can be twisted  by evil against them? 
... why then are they sharing a glimpse of their family's generational wisdom? … why at a time of such division & distress? … why take the risk?  

… could it be  —  they see the fabric of family is being severely shredded ~and~ with it all generational values that make us for the better ? 
… could it be  —  this is for each of us to discern for ourselves  ~and~  do what is best for our soul=life ?  
… could it be  —  their sincere appreciation to their well_wishers of various faiths & beliefs for playing devil's advocate while being genuine well_wishers ? 
… could it be  —  all this is a humble_brag, cloaked_vanity, etc. 

~or~  are they just,  'throwing bread on waters'  with their nuance of  'choosing to share blessings_received despite some harrowing crosses' ?
~or~  is it,  they get, ' irrespective,  evil is constantly attacking the soul=light within, directly & indirectly  ~and~  ALL that is out of your control'  
  ~and~  they chose …  ' why live in fear?  … especially when the light is within you 

…  just Live your Purpose & Praxis per your Faith & Beliefs … ALL else do not matter ' ?

CRUX :   just  think  of  us  as  down_to_earth  grounded_folks  with  a wee bit of  common_sense
… for a better future … for ALL our children  ~and~  for our shared  hUmaNITY
