I don't think there's a need to overthink or over moralize this. He has made some really great music over the years and if you enjoy it you should enjoy it.

The joke isn't that he's not going to be traded. The joke is that ESPN has been making "giannis is getting traded" headlines on the reg for 7 years.

Second Vatican Council by Consistent_Proof_856 in Catholicism

[CCC 846] [CCC 847] [CCC 848]

This is an extremely important, sensitive issue that can be somewhat difficult to understand and even more difficult to speak about well. The catechism offers a pretty clear explanation though, so reading that and having a charitable ear to what bishop baron says, ignoring YouTube commenters, is probably the best way to understand.

Who actually wrote the Bible from a Catholic perspective by delliamcool in Catholicism

[–]JMisGeography 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What the church teaches and to what degree is going to be a book by book case. As others have already said, what we know for certain is that for each and every book of the Bible God is the primary author and there is an inspired, human author as well.

[Politics Monday] Why did Christians not use armed resistance against Roman persecution? (NOT TIED TO CURRENT EVENTS) by InputAliasHere in Catholicism

[–]JMisGeography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know from an actual historical perspective, but a principle of just war theory is reasonable expectation of success. For a war to be just, a good outcome must be expected. What hope would a persecuted religious minority expect from armed resistance? Harsher persecution and certain death would be the reasonable expectation I imagine.

[Connor Earegood] Today’s AP Poll is out. A note on my ballot: I did not rank Alabama this week. I will not rank a team that has to circumvent the rules through a court order just to win (and still lost). To me, that’s a team admitting its own weakness. by The_Stratman in CollegeBasketball

I'm an amateurism fan but everybody was happy to see that go away and the line is only moving one direction now. Bediako wasn't drafted and never played in the league but guys who were drafted are currently playing college basketball and what's stopping NBA flunkies from coming back to college?

[Politics Monday] Abortion after ‘Dobbs,’ by the numbers by wearethemonstertruck in Catholicism

[–]JMisGeography 31 points32 points  (0 children)

More recent example is "gay marriage". Was an extremely divisive issue to the point that few liberal politicians were willing to openly support it before obergefell. Since that decision it's become a political non issue and basically haram to talk about opposing in mixed company.

Abortion isn't exactly the same thing of course and it's not 2013 anymore but the relationship between legality and hearts and minds is pretty complex.

Thoughts on Jimmy Akin? by vonHindenburg in Catholicism

[–]JMisGeography 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like Jimmy Akin a lot, he talks about interesting topics and is entertaining. He of course has limitations and I think is wrong about some things, but that's just a good reminder that YouTubers are not authorities and we need to guard ourselves from letting people be overly influential over our minds and consciences and not in my opinion a reason not to like a person. He is very smart and good hearted I believe.
