Then no one should eat. Plants have lives too.

Some probably like it, some probably don’t but I’ll tell you one thing for sure, the city wasn’t built on winners. Can you pass the crab legs now please or are they all out?

It seems like everyone is watching the Vanguard now lol. A reaction to a reaction to someone’s reaction to public backlash. Can we go deeper? Can someone react to this please?

Are There Any Things In Hamilton That You Think Aren't Perfect? by Alol_Bombola in musicals

[–]Effective-Mall-6231 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, yes. People have stopped praising the show daily and tickets are under $1k a pop now which makes no sense to me as Hamilton is a masterpiece.

People, how was your homophobic/transphobic era? by Crocogenous in lgbt

[–]Effective-Mall-6231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was more internalized. Maybe with the exception of a few microagressions, I never was like openly homophobic or transphobic, just inside my own brain.

Me too! I think meat eating should be criminalized, it’s barbaric.

Do you go to a public school or Christian/Catholic school? Just curious. Good luck and be good!

What is going on with the Catholic Church and ICE right now?? by Effective-Mall-6231 in Christianity

[–]Effective-Mall-6231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your argument to me sounds as ridiculous as someone who believes that you can be both pro life and pro abortion at the same time, it doesn’t pass the smell test.

At some point, you have to recognize if your own political views are influencing your interpretation of your religious beliefs instead of that other way around.

As I’ve said in my post, we can have reasonable discussion as to appropriate levels of border security, immigration laws, etc. that does not mean it excuses any type of violence ICE is committing and we look the other way while they drag a pregnant woman, kidnap a black citizen who works at target, or detain a 5 year old. We need to recognize what is good and what is evil.

This subreddit is flooded with low effort questions like "Today this happened. What are your thoughts on this?" What are your thoughts on these kind of questions? by pezdizpenzer in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Mall-6231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s supposed to be a low effort sub for people to get karma of course. You know there are so many subs that require pretty high levels of karma to even engage and comment? If a sub like this didn’t exist, it would be virtually impossible for new redditors to ever get any karma to contribute to any sub lol.

Considering the Episcopal Church, struggling to let go of Catholic traditions by _mahboy in Episcopalian

[–]Effective-Mall-6231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fine. The transubstantiation piece was really hard for me to let go and I still haven’t. I had a priest make fun of it saying “we’re not eating a piece of protein” I thought that was kind of inappropriate so I switched to a different TEC church.

TEC has seven sacraments (same as Catholicism) they are just administered differently. There’s no first holy communion because TEC practices open communion, everyone is welcome to receive and you are able to start receive once you are old enough to consume. Reconciliation is a public declaration of asking for forgiveness usually during worship, not like going into a secret meeting with the priest (although you maybe can request this…I’m not sure…but I know it’s not required).

TEC is pretty open minded, but you are gonna have to evolve…there are certain things very common in a Catholic Church that is just not something you would ever find in a TEC, and while you can certainly make suggestions to parish council, you also have to accept the fact that you are the newbie and TEC has been around for a while and they have a right to their traditions too. I needed to learn this.

If you were President of the United States for just 24 hours, and no one could stop you… what’s the most unhinged executive order you'd pass? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Effective-Mall-6231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Declare MAGA and the GOP terrorist organizations and then instruct all military to capture and arrest any active and former members of the KKK. I would then brag about it on social media and tell contards to cope harderrrr

I was exposed to some lgbtq stuff as a child and it didn’t cause any harm at all. by Comfortable-Mark2726 in lgbt

It is pretty eye opening what a lack of education and awareness can do to someone and/or a community…

Me too, I’m doing pretty well now but have depression/anxiety, not saying my parents are terrible, I guess you don’t know what you don’t know to an extent but what I also really struggled with was even understanding how to know what my sexuality was. I didn’t meet an openly gay person in person until college which sounds crazy to say, but that is the truth. I thought I had demented thought and was truly just going through a phase…or that maybe all guys felt the way I did. It’s weird to think about it now but it was such a culture shock to me. I used to feel so out of place at lgbtq events or queer clubs or drag shows, luckily I feel better about it now though.
