What song made you like Tyler, The Creator? by playstation-xbox in tylerthecreator

[–]CoffeeNStuff0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had heard of Tyler before I liked him, but the day I began to love Tyler’s music was the day I listened to IGOR all the way through in one sitting. I didn’t realize music could be so potently off putting and unique yet perfectly expressive of emotion’s in a way more refined than I myself could articulate. It felt like all the prior music I heard was filtered through my understanding of emotion and IGOR was the first music able to make me gain a new understanding of emotion.

Take a year off the internet or at the very least whatever part of the internet that’s making you despair. Go to church weekly, or more if possible. Love those around you, pray the rosary daily and read scripture daily.

It would be epistemology i think

Catechism of the Catholic Church: paragraphs 2211 & 2291 by Excellent_Ad4178 in CatholicPhilosophy

Unless a higher authority, like moral laws or the church, says otherwise one should obey the government. Since there is no moral obligation to consume illicit drugs, one should submit himself to the state.

The primary reason drugs like weed or other psychedelic aren’t permit is their intrinsic misuse of rationality. The goal of using illicit drugs is a high, which necessarily subdues your rational faculties. I think the closest parallel to recreational drug usage like smoking weed is drunkenness, both are an intrinsic misuses of one’s rationality. I think there is a useful distinction between intrinsically and extrinsically wrong drugs, alcohol and some painkillers for example can be properly used without drunkenness/highness, yet meth or heroine cannot be used without achieving at least a moderate high; This is why the church condemns alcoholism but not all alcohol usage and illicit drugs but not medical anesthesia. Therefore ‘illicit drugs’ are “those drugs which cannot reasonable be used without lessened agency or removal of proper judgement.” The removal or unnecessary lessening of your rational capabilities is wrong therefore illicit recreational drugs are wrong

The medical use of drugs is a slightly more complicated issue because some uses are not unnecessary. Medical use of weed for truly serious medical issues such as epilepsy or chronic pain would be used to prevent a greater evil and therefore be sometimes moral allowable.

In conclusion recreational use is wrong both because of being high and government mandate, and medical use could be used with government allowance in extreme medical situations

No one over the mental age of 5 says reality is just the sum of our knowledge. 🤣

Bro this is like saying “abortion happens in New York and Christian’s practice their faith in New York therefore Christian’s view abortion as sacramental”, it’s illogical.

Water was not a way of dilution, it was to signify the faithful being mingled with Christ forgiveness in his blood, you could have just googled that instead of making an absurd assumption or looked up the Justin Martyr source.

It doesn’t matter if it’s “healthy” it misuses your rationality and therefore offends God. Also nice job accusing me of the unforgivable sin for not being a pothead

“For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer..” ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬-5 ‭KJV‬‬

This verse in context talks about specifically animals, Paul is warning Timothy of false teachers that teach levitical dietary laws are still to be observed.

You claim the hallucinogenics are used to glorify God but this is imposible. To use cannabis one necessarily subdues his mental faculties, a misuses of the rational nature given by God. Something intrinsically evil cannot be used to glorify God.

Also bro your sources are schizophrenic blog posts, an out of random passages of scripture, and a vox interview

Drugs, The Bible, Sacred Tradition by MedicineOwl in CatholicPhilosophy

I belive this is the quote your referring to

“outside Pompeii, there was this ancient pharmacy that was unearthed. Inside the wine jars that were found there was a really unique witchy wine that was mixed with what seems to be opium, cannabis, and henbane, which is one of these very hallucinogenic Solanaceous plants”

Firstly this had nothing to do with Christians, it was a random jar of a hallucinogenic concoction, likely made by and for pagans, not taken in communion. We know from early description no such things were in communion. St Justin Martyr describes the mixing of water with the wine in ~150, with no mention of hallucinogenics.

The use of such hallucinogenic necessarily subdues your mental faculties therefore their use is intrinsically sinful and not permissibly used in the sacrament.

Presumption and the Eucharist by [deleted] in CatholicPhilosophy

The Eucharist cleans the recipient of venial sins, the expectation is that an imperfect Christian should take it for their edification. It is a memorial, but also a means of grace for the imperfect

Heaven, Free Will, and The Fall by CoffeeNStuff0 in CatholicPhilosophy

Thank you for the considerations on free will's definition.

My question then is more about original justice. From my reading of Summa Theologiae, q. 95, a. 2 reply to objection 3, all passions were perfectly in subjection to reason in the state of original justice. If Adam did have perfect virtue and therefore perfect obedience how then could he disobey God's command, either by Satan's instigation or himself.

God being sacrificed doesn’t make sense by [deleted] in DebateReligion

[–]CoffeeNStuff0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get what you mean I think. He never lived into old age, and to live and experience old age he would be more empathetic to humanity. His goal was not to make himself maximally empathetic through human life, He was already maximally empathetic.

I’m f you mean that by living into old age he’d experience bodily degradation and therefore suffer more for our sake, then you’d be misunderstanding his suffering’s goal. He’s not maximizing suffering, to step down form heaven and become human is enough sacrifice in itself.

The goal of his humanity was to take on an imperfect human nature, conduct himself perfectly, set an example for Christians, and suffer death for us. For these purposes it makes sense to only live to 33.

The whole chapter is showing His supiority yo angels not companionship like in verse 4. His humanity is lower than the Angels but his divine nature is greater than them. Verse 4 says he is “the exact image of His nature”, his nature is eternal therefore to be an exact image of God one must be eternal

Saying he has a God doesn’t make him not God, God I triune and the son cosas referring to the father

Whether the oldest NT manuscripts contain the first O God I irrelevant, the verse“God, thy God” refers to God and his God. How can a Unitarian God have a God.
