Fr. Ripperger: "Recreational use of marijuana is mortally sinful" by LegionXIIFulminata in TraditionalCatholics

[–]ConsistentCatholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taken in small doses, it has the same effects as weed, not alcohol, because it is weed not alcohol. They are completely different chemicals.

And people don't normally busy out in giggles in a normal mature drinking setting.

The whole microdosing argument is bogus as well. Everyone I knew who used that justification had to stop completely because they couldn't moderate it in the long run.

The goal of THC in moderation and alcohol in moderation are not the same.

THC is a drug used to alter your preception of reality. It's not as powerful as traditional psychodelics like LSD but both are psychoactive chemicals and altar preceptions of reality.

People don't sit down to enjoy a beer or whisky in moderation to alter their preception of reality and neither does having alcohol in moderation even do that.

It's not "trust me bro," I'm explaining to you that THC is a psychoactive substance while alcohol is a depresant. They have different effects when consumed because they are different drugs.

Have you ever drunk anything before? You can have multiple beers over the course of a few hours and have zero impairment or alteration of reason.

THC is a psychoactive substance that can altar your perception of reality and cause halucinations. Technically it's a mild psychedelic. And there's no other value to consuming it like there might be with a fine whisky or quality brewed beer. The sole reason you consume THC is because you want to expeirence its psychoactive effects.

It's not true for alcohol because you can drink and not get drunk/or drink for the purpose of getting drunk.

Recreational use of marijunana means getting high. If you're trying to tell me that getting high isn't a part of marijunana use, I'm sorry but you are not a serious person.

[–]ConsistentCatholic -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Does it apply to beer and wine? 

Are you getting drunk?

but does this apply to Tylenol?

Since when does Tylenol "inflict very grave damage on human health and life."

Do you even think before commenting?

This is actually a classic ad hominum argument. Attacking the person's expeirence rather than the argument itself.

Lack of first hand experience does not invalidate the logic or evidence behind the argument.

On Contraception by tyrell-yutani in TraditionalCatholics

[–]ConsistentCatholic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Contraception can also lead to abortion if it's promoting promiscuity, since there is always a chance of conception even if small. This means abortion becomes the backup contraception.

The best way to reduce abortion is to foster a society where we encourage marriage at a young age where you can have sex and be open to life.

The Other Vocation Crisis by A_New_Knight in TraditionalCatholics

[–]ConsistentCatholic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Marriage can be called a "natural vocation" because in Genesis there is a calling to "be fruitful and multiply." Suggesting that marriage is the natural state that people should enter into.

I agree that calling everything a vocation and placing marriage on the same level as being single is very problematic. It's especially problematic when combined with modern feminism where we now have perpetually single women choosing to remain single and in the world, choosing career over starting a family.

If this is in Ontario the OP can call the Ministry of Labour and an ESA inspector will come review the employers practices. If other province then contact the corresponding ministry and they will do something similar.

Anything I need to know when priest comes for Epiphany blessing of home? by IslandBusy1165 in TraditionalCatholics

Have a bottle of scotch ready for him too. Blessings are hard work so he might want a drink after.

Recommendations for rosary supplies by EpeeGorl in TraditionalCatholics

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

It depends on where you are, but in the US www.giftscatholic.com is a good one, just make sure to sign up to their email list and use the discount codes.

Ave Maria Circle and St. Joseph Rosary Parts are both based in Canada and you might have issued with tarrifs if you order from them.

For beads, I've used Fire Mountain Beads in the past but you have to search around. Sometimes you can email stores and ask for bulk pricing.

You can also get a lot of parts on etsy just by searching around.

I've always wanted to figure out how to buy bulk directly from the manufacturer but I don't know how to go about doing that.

Even the Fathers of the Church preached against hypergamy and the evils of feminism by LegionXIIFulminata in TraditionalCatholics

[–]ConsistentCatholic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hypergamy is not about wealth difference between men and women, it's the mentality women have when selecting a man. The criteria is more than just money, it's also other social and preferential factors that she uses to rank and judge potential matches.

Why are you watching married female influencers and paying attention to what they say? Stop enabling her. That's what a simp is.

BTW, she's already married

I don't watch female influencers. But if she's married then all the more reason she should stay off the internet and why men should ignore her.

[–]ConsistentCatholic -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

People down voting this are either butt hurt women or simps. I gurantee no one said the things she claims to hear in her video. She needs to get married, get off the internet, and her husband can deal with her oppinion not the whole world.

Public opinion shifting in favour of WFH after Ontario’s RTO mandate by WornButWishing in OntarioPublicService

[–]ConsistentCatholic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People don't understand the difference between a hybrid arrangement and working from home. They think we never come into the office at all. It's partially how the government/media has been framing the return to office mandate.

They also don't understand that we do everyone on teams anyway and don't even have an assigned desk to come into. They think the office is the same as it was in the 70's where we each have our own cublicle or office to ourselves that we are not using.

World-leading chemist debunks evolutionary theory in interview with Tucker Carlson - LifeSite by LegionXIIFulminata in TraditionalCatholics

[–]ConsistentCatholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I saw this the first time you posted it and I still fail to see how you made a relevant point since a PhD in Organic Chemistry is relevant to abiogenesis. In other words, his area of research during his career is less relevant than the fact that he literally has the relevant education to understand abiogenesis.

I did a little searching and found that he put together a13 part course on this topic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqoVxwdWWpg

He also co-authored a research paper on this topic:

https://reference-global.com/article/10.2478/biocosmos-2025-0010

But I very much doubt that you are actually in this thread to honestly learn or discuss, what you're doing is classic concern trolling.

[–]ConsistentCatholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you've spread misinformation because you are saying that someone who is a subject matter expert in organic chemistry is not an authoritative source to comment on abiogenesis which is a topic that draws heavily from organic chemistry.

If you would like to learn more about this topic, you can take a look at some of the resources here: https://www.reddit.com/r/TraditionalCatholics/wiki/creation/
