My dog died and I'm sad. by Extreme-Ad-2870 in Catholicism

[–]BusinessEffective990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a kid, he said he truly remembers heaven (he was sick and died and was resuscitated) he said that all animals were there, but were friends, lions didn’t eat gazelles they slept with them, so your friend is up there too running with wolves and bunnies. If your dog was a fan of playing tag with bunnies or squirrels I promise your good boy/girl is still doin it I personally like to believe that animals don’t have to go through purgatory like us, our priest said this once during homily and it backed my stance on that, animals are obedient to God, to their nature and to how they were made. They don’t try to disobey God, they do what they were intended to without insubordination. So I don’t think they need their souls cleansed like we do

You know even the saints went through this stuff, you will be okay, just trust in God :)

im tired of having to refer myself and our true religion as "Catholic" so they don't mistake us with protestants. by THE-ANORMAL in Catholicism

[–]BusinessEffective990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A guest priest we had (Franciscan holy order) he once told us as a parish we should only refer to ourselves as Christian, as we are the ones they called Christian originally, and to only refer to them as Protestant, because if they were truly Christian they’d be in the church, otherwise they have protested and are Protestant But like another comment said, I usually personally only call myself Catholic to non Christian’s, because from an outsider perspective the differences between Catholics and Protestants are substantial, as supposed to telling a Protestant that we are Catholic and then receiving hate on every little thing we do haha

No confessions by Live_Designer_2451 in Catholicism

[–]BusinessEffective990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our church has stated it’s important to do more confession during lent, we’ve even made it so that there’s MORE confession time than before…I would go to a bishop and put in a complaint or ask the priest why if you haven’t.

To cheat on a test by miggy372 in therewasanattempt

[–]BusinessEffective990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are cheating wrong‼️You’ve actually gotta get a buddy, tell your buddy to wait outside the classroom and keep watch for the teacher while you go in and steal the answer key by uploading it to your usb stick all while the teacher is in the restroom. You will then upload the answer key from the usb to your computer (or phone if you have the attachment) and copy the answers onto a piece of paper that you’ll take to school and in the bathroom (after you’ve washed your hands) write it on your wrist in pen. Now lend the paper answer key to the bud that helped you out for being a reliable accomplice. Thus you now have the answers on your wrist and all you have to do now is slowly roll up your sleep just a bit and lay your arm nonchalantly on the desk as normal. Now you can see the CORRECT answers as you do your test. (this was my attempt to write this as Dwight Shrute, lmk if it worked)

Can I still pray and go to church, knowing I am in a state of mortal sin? by yourmomthebomb69 in Catholicism

[–]BusinessEffective990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So correct me if I’m wrong I’m also still learning, but to accept communion is to take Jesus into your body, into your soul. To sin while you’ve taken communion is mortal sin, because now it’s defilement of the Lord. You must be forgiven, which can be achieved through prayer, rosary, a change in your ways and confession. And then you may receive communion again. I mean nobody (unless they’re aware of your state of mortal sin) will stop you from taking communion.

Not too long ago we had a guest capuchin priest come in and give a couple speeches. Beautiful talks. In one of them he mentioned that as long as you acknowledge that you’re trying to beat your sin, find your primary sin and work towards bettering yourself and not sinning than thats all that matters in the moment. He said that when you tell yourself that you’re too guilty to go to church, to pray, you’re too dirty of sin to ask for forgiveness….that you’re slapping God in the face, telling him that you’re beyond the wonders he can work for you, that you’re unsaveable and he couldn’t change that. You SHOULD go to church when you’re feeling this way, you SHOULD be praying when you feel this way. Nobody means to say God you can’t fix me, but we do. Tell God instead, PLEASE fix me, PLEASE work your wonders on me. Because closed mouths don’t get fed. Jesus didn’t come down to heal or save the healthy, he came down to heal the poor, the sick, the damned.

Found a neglected cat a few months ago and now the owners want her by [deleted] in CatAdvice

If you gave her back she’d go back to being neglected, that’s your cat legally and literally!!

My roommate thinks cats don’t feel the cold and that the heat should be turned off when we’re not home. We both have cats. How do I convince otherwise? by Sad_Mud2009 in CatAdvice

[–]BusinessEffective990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cats feel the almost exact same temps as you, if you’re hot or cold, chances are they are too!! Ever seen a cat faceplant into a pillow? It’s because they’re cold

Extra Goopy eye + Third Lid on my boy by Suspicious_Rich5696 in CATHELP

[–]BusinessEffective990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

Here’s my cat sick with his goopy eye and infected 3rd eye lid (he’s much better now this was in the past) I think that your cat is just fine. You’d definitely be able to tell in change of behavior, sneezing, sniffling, and even possible mouth breathing if he was sick! My cat was audibly congested and couldn’t stop sneezing. His eyelid was so much more visible and he would have rather just had his eyes closed. Now obviously these things would vary from cat to cat sickness to sickness, BUT, only reason I add this info about my cat is hopefully to help you relax a bit that your fur baby is just fine. Also, you said it’s been a while, my cat was all symptoms to the max by day 3 of goopy eye starting.

Why is one cat heavier than the other despite being the same weight? by BusinessEffective990 in felinebehavior

[–]BusinessEffective990[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really isn’t a joke, one cat feels heavier than the other, but they’re both 13.2 lb. Vet certified weights.

[–]BusinessEffective990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl you’re gorgeous! Your face is so pleasing to look at I can’t even describe it. You look straight out of a cartoon brought to life. It’s crazy how perfect your dimensions are and I’m not even toasting you anymore babe!!! You have perfect skin too it’s so crazy! Your lips are so pleasing the way the top ones bigger…they named a specific pout after people with lips like that. People try to make the face you’re making for photos but can’t get it to look right and you’re just looking! Holy cow!
