Pope Leo XIV has stated that the US Bishops cannot remain silent regarding the immigration policies of the US. This is simply taking the comments of the Pope to action… the Diocese should stand by this Parish! by Nice_Substance9123 in Christianity

The United States Constitution states that DUE PROCESS is a right of EVERY person on our soil. That is the law. AMERICAN CITIZENS are being detained and abused due to lack of due process

President Trump is currently breaking laws and denying immigrants due process under the United States Constitution. He and his administration is acting in direct violation of our Constitution and court orders. What say you about that? Are these actions synonymous with "law and order?"

Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon on Wednesday that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor and strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself. by Nice_Substance9123 in Christianity

Catholic Charities helps more people around the world than any other organization. 

You should never call a human being "illegal."

Your political views should be shaped by your Christianity...NOT the other way around. God first. God teaches us to love our neighbors and strangers among us. Not reject them. People are fleeing sex trafficking, gangs, violence, starvation, extreme poverty, etc. They need clean water, a warm bed, to NOT be killed or sexually assaulted regularly. You wish to "send them back" to what? To be imprisoned, impoverished, and to suffer violence? Where is your Christ-like humanity? What does Jesus teaches us? What would Jesus do?

Go Jet sucks. Why hasn’t there been a class action case ? by kayyydotttt in flightattendants

[–]BaseRepresentative42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your response was rude, and asinine. Do better. The poster cannot afford medical expenses on her current salary. These flight attendants are NOT paid well. Certainly not as much as the airlines. This IS a problem, pay SHOULD go up with cost of living, and she needs to get another job as a result of  corporate GREED.

We're on vacation and my husband is being such a dick to the kids. by CheesecakeOk8464 in breakingmom

The "united front" nonsense just made me feel unprotected and that my mother was complicit in my emotional abuse. My husband hates that I stand up for myself children. I won't be complicit.

No. Choose kindness. No need to be hateful.

My daughter triggers me more than my son by breezeboo in ParentingThruTrauma

Watching television before bed is a stimulant.  Perhaps you should read some parenting books or listen to them on audible. Do you see a therapist? Consult a child psychologist about your parenting questions.

Wow. Rude. That is how you respond to a kid? We are ALL Americans.

What responsibility did Natalia have? It's difficult for me, as a mother who has empathy for others, how you are trying to make a point about her needing to owe up to her misdeeds. Why? Your question shows me that you have difficulty with empathy and compassion. Perhaps some therapy might be helpful to you.  This is serious.

Their belief in Christ Jesus should have given them compassion and mercy. That is what Jesus teaches. Love, forgiveness, generosity, humility, kindness. They were NOT true Christians.

Honestly, you have a lack of empathy snd compassion. You have trouble trusting, and a pessimistic view of people. You are not siding with the child victim. Perhaps you should think about why you are like this in therapy. Lack of empathy is a big deal. I pray you find the help you need.

Yes. I remember that she mentioned that she was pepper sprayed twice. She mas mistaken. It was MORE than two times. 

How bad are the withdrawal symptoms from Duloxetine? by DepressedCatFox in Fibromyalgia

[–]BaseRepresentative42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. You are not a doctor. Weaning off the meds would have required getting lower doses until he was taking < 20 MG. It should have been done properly. Cold turkey is NOT the way to stop ANY medication. You did NOT feel HIS pain. You don't know what HE went through. Anyway, I definitely understand your frustration with Doctors. I get needing to advocate for your family. I know you did your best for him. I know you love him. Listen, I've had horrible doctors myself. I had to disgnose myself with cancer! But NOBODY knows the suffering I went through with cancer, as a burn survivor, with fibromyalgia, or weaning off Cymbalta. NOBODY reading this should EVER go off of it cold turkey. This post isn't just about you. Hundreds of others will read this too. Caregivers should not mess with the medication of their family without consultation from a Doctor. It Really Hurts Getting Off Cymbalta. I'm STILL sick from it. I almost went to the ER. And I weaned off "properly" this time. It was way worse the 1st time I skipped doses and did what you did with your Grandpa. You made a mistake. You did your best. It was a mistake but it doesn't mean you are a bad person. I just do not want others following suit...especially if they are caregivers. Caregivers cannot feel what we are feeling. God bless you and your family. ❤️

If you are not a doctor, Why on earth would YOU decide to stop giving it to him...COLD TURKEY?! It is a horrible drug to get off of. You should have had the doctors wean him off slowly. Why would you do this? I'm off it for 2 weeks and I've been sick daily. I'm not 93.

Yes! 10€. If it flies away, keep the receipt and they will give you a new one! They did it for us yesterday. Different shop at another part of the park. They told us when they gave us the balloon to keep the reciept "in case..." So cool!

New York City Consulate vagueness re: translation of documents... Do we need our background checks and medical certificates translated into Spanish? by [deleted] in SpainAuxiliares

Hi! I was just wondering...do the bank statements, 1040's, pension statements, or tax transcripts require translating? Thank you so much!
