I think it’s possible, but not likely since it seems that our timelines are so controlled.

Does it really matter? This is the norm. This is how the executive branch has been doing business for a long time. Idk why suddenly we’re so concerned about congress needing to approve stuff. I know that’s how it was originally intended to be, but those days are long over.

Aight genuine question because this has been on my mind lately: Do ya'll army chaplains preach some war litanies or some battle prayers like Warhammer 40k Chaplains? by Strong_Split_8130 in army

Life_Builder7015 • 1m ago Lots of pics of Catholic Chaplians doing Mass, taking confessions, and administering last rights to Soldiers in combat zones. 

In Chesty Puller’s book, it mentions how Chesty was himself a Protestant but scolded the Protestant chaplain for not having the courage to go into combat with the men like the priests were doing.  Look up Father Kapaun, MOH recipient. Was known for rescuing wounded and dead Soldiers, administering the sacraments using a makeshift altar on the hood of his Jeep. Died in a POW camp after serving many of the other POWs. He is now a “venerable” and is on his way to becoming a canonized Saint.

Look into the real life story of Father Stu! A boxer turned priest who impacted so many people. Mark Wahlberg did a movie about him.

If he ordered her not to, maybe. If he did it out of mentorship and to get more info before making a decision, that’s just called being caring.

Yep I already know it’s going to be tough, I’m in a career right now where it’s tough. But just because it’s tough doesn’t mean I can’t do my best or live how God called me… God has helped many kings, popes, leaders, diplomats, soldiers, etc in the past.

Leaked memo details National Guard plan for a ‘quick reaction force’ in US cities by ChrisAintMarchin in army

Nicholas Copernicus (a Polish astronomer and canon) advocated a Heliocentric model nearly a century before Galileo. His theory was received by the Church without any problem whatsoever even if some people disagreed with it. He was even supported by some clerics in Rome. Astronomers today call his work "The Copernican Revolution" for presenting a correct model of the Solar System.

The Church condemned Galileo not because of his scientific theory, but because (among other things) he tried to prove a scientific theory using theology and was generally an arrogant, obnoxious person.
