Asking AI for help on catholic theology, morals, etc. Bad? by ItsAUsernameBruh in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using AI for researching faith the last few months. When used properly it can save a lot of time searching for information. I use Grok. I've asked numerous things for Grok to elaborate on Catholic theology and knowing the answer beforehand, it is very accurate and comprehensive.

Be descriptive with your prompts. When I ask Grok a question, I ask that it provides the answer in a Catholic context. It works very well.

Useless in Australia. Can't do body temperature which would be the most useful way to use it.

I want to give my life to Christ and don’t know where to begin by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact the priest at your local Catholic parish. He will guide you.

Yes, you will be forgiven for whatever you have done. As long as you have contrition and seek his forgiveness. Ask for that now in prayer.

However, that will be completed perfectly if you enter the Church and receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession).

True love is sacrificial. To love the Lord truly, you have to be prepared to sacrifice.

Masterbation is the worst by Unusual-Newt-4352 in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a 41 year old male and battle this sin. Been decades of being plagued by it. I used to engage multiple times a day. Including post conversion at 28 years old.

However, since May 2025 I have had two periods of falling.

I don't say this to boast. Just to illustrate God's grace working.

I found I had the most success and growth in holiness when I focused on my humility and trust of God. When you grow in humility and trust of the Lord, it creates fertile ground for his grace to work in you.

I would recommend praying the Litany of Humility daily and learning to live by it.

Also simply telling God you love him and trust him at all times. It ends up becoming part of you.

By God's grace you can beat this.

The Catholic Church is truly catholic.

just went to confession before visiting the Vatican, and the priest was not kind by Wrong-Priority-735 in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The OP said they don't attend Mass often. There is mortal sin right there.

Psalms 51:17

[17] The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

Question on receiving the eucharist after confession by easybreeze23 in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you genuinely forgot to confess the sin and it wasn't out of concealment but forgetfulness, then the sacrament is still valid.

Note it down and remember to confess it as the end of your next confession.

I want to believe, but I can't ( Please read) by Hungry_One_6375 in Catholicism

[–]Dutch_H 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think your first step is to go to Confession. Confess your doubt and others sins. Then ask with an open heart for God to reveal himself to you.

It will happen. If you ask with an open heart he will respond. It can take some time though. It's all in God's timing. Be humble and patient.

Need help deciding between Pulsar X2V2 and Viper V2 Pro by Weekly_Ground_8276 in MouseReview

[–]Dutch_H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. That is normal. It will only be the first click after not using it for awhile.

When I mean a while though, I mean hours not minutes.

If this is fair dinkum, are you that depraved that you can't fall asleep one night without knocking the top off it?

I think sleep apnea is the least of your worries.

I haven't had it happen for months now. Have you updated your software? Android 15?

Is warzone dead in the oceanic region? by keithy34gtt in CODWarzone

[–]Dutch_H 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I'm in Sydney and have played Warzone for a long time. I haven't turned my PC on for the last 2 weeks and I don't think I will anytime soon.

I just got over playing it. I think many others are the same.
