20 posts held, back to 16 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.

Custom emoji. One row above is a Telegram custom emoji, which the public preview renders as an element carrying only a numeric id — no character, and no image we can reach. The id is printed as-is rather than substituted with a look-alike glyph, because a stand-in would be our invention showing where a measurement should be. The count beside it isTelegram’s.
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 20 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 318reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 16 July 2026 to 6 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
Part 2 of my series on Dei Verbum: shorturl.at/Bs1Du This article covers the teachings of the Popes and Doctors on Scripture's historical and scientific inerrancy, and how the Modernists at Vatican II vocally rejected those teachings during the Council. Part 3 will examine how this rejection shaped the final text of the Council's declaration on Scripture.

As regards the body, Adam indeed was produced from the clay, while Eve came forth from Adam's rib. Yet in neither case was there any seminal power capable of forming the human body. Rather, this formation took place not through any transformation or successive motion, as the generation of bodies ordinarily does, but instantaneously and by the sovereign command of God alone, which is characteristic of creation. - Rev.…

Creation in a strict sense means bringing something out of nothing, but the Bible also uses this word to describe the formation of new things out of preexisting matter. As Fr. Frassen notes here, both meanings denote an instantaneous act of God. When God made each thing in this world, living or not, he made it in an instant.

Now creation properly so called requires three conditions: 1. that something come into being from no pre-existing matter; 2. [or,] that it come from matter incapable of and unprepared for the form introduced into it; 3. that it be produced without any prior disposition, without motion, and in an instant. In the first manner God produced heaven and earth; in the second, all those things narrated in the first chapter…

My favorite part of Plato's Timaeus is when Timaeus explains that, in the absence of divine revelation, human reason can only speculate about the origin of the world, constructing tales that at best simply feel plausible, without attaining certainty. But the father and maker of all this universe is past finding out; and even if we found him, to tell of him to all men would be impossible... If then, Socrates, amid th…

When I posted about Ven. Mary of Agreda, I noted that I didn't know of any other Catholic visionaries who claimed to have been revealed the true age of the world. I recently found out that there is one other: Anne Catherine Emmerich. I saw these false computations of the pagan priests at the same time that I beheld Jesus teaching on the Sabbath at Aruma. Jesus, speaking before the Pharisees of the Call of Abraham a…

One thing many theologians talk about is how the work of redemption is greater than the work of creation, and therefore had to be accomplished over long ages, in contrast to the creation, which was swift. Note that this applies not only to the creation and redemption of man, but to all of nature as well, since it was made for his sake. There are two works of God, by which all things that have been made are brought t…

I've been trying for a long time to find a copy of this commentary on Genesis by Eghishe, transcribed by Levon Khachikyan and published by Magaghat Publishing House. I even tried emailing the translator, Dr. Michael Papazian, but got no response. If any of you have better luck, please DM me on X.

His Excellency Bishop Sanborn (one of the best bishops out there) starts with a good formulation: pending a formal judgement which would make us obligated, we are still obliged, by the unanimous consensus of the Scholastics and the Fathers, to treat Genesis literally. However, without any prejudice to him, I must in charity point out two things the good Bishop got wrong: 1. The numbers of years in the chronologies.…

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @creationquotations. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Citation-graph rank — 451,062 of 1,169,250entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channel’s name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture. The top 100 by this measure, or how it is computed.
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 13 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
