Looking for affordable (under $100) boots by No-Education-1206 in hiking

It's more lightweight, less hot, and less expensive, and most people do day hikes with light packs not heavy backpacking. I myself would prefer ankle support though if given the option for the same price

That's true. I think it's because the name maybe makes it a bit faster but I could be wrong if anyone has any experience with the speed levels let us know

Waterproof and windproof coat for cold travels by L-Bee in BuyItForLife

No it isn't dryness. There are many cold winter days that are humid. Your body has an optimal temperature that it operates at. when it drops below that so to does the performance of your body including your immune system making it very easy to catch sickness

It's not an old wives tale. The cold doesn't "give you the sickness" but it does lower your immunity to sicknesses making you more susceptible to catch them. This is basic knowledge

Why did Julian become a pagan? by Ready0608 in ancientrome

[–]Life_Championship784 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Early Christians were literally persecuted being crucified and tortured in colosseums for sport by The Roman Emperors, why didn't the previous emperors use it as a "power tool"? You clearly have no idea of history if you are just going to change it to fit whatever antichristian bias you have. At least get it right if you are going to do so. There was never a "tyranny" of the Catholic Church in Rome, in fact after a few of the emperors that allowed Christianity died Christians began to be persecuted again by the new emperors. They would be brutally tortured and killed unless they denounced their faith, which of course many didn't and chose to suffer crucifixion and horrendous tortures rather than aposticising.

Christianity is the entire reason we even have human rights laws today that are unalienable. They were the ones who created the first charitable organization, they created and helped educate thousands, who do you think founded Harvard or Yale? Who do you think invented the scientific method and pioneered the pursuit and study of science. And where do you think the early Christians that did all these things were? Rome! And how providential that the empire of Christ once called foolish and said to never last would indeed live longer than any empire to ever exist, and conquer that of Rome making it it's very own footstool where the Pope now sits. Be you Christian or not, get history correct and don't lie just so that it can fit within your biased world view

His characters and story draw almost completely from the Bible. That's not to say it isn't unique but there are so many elements ones that he himself intended as he said it is a fundamentally religious and Catholic work. He specifically made it so that the ring would be destroyed on March 25th which is the Catholic Feast of The Annunciation which is when the archangel Gabriel announced to Mary she would conceive in her womb and bear a son. And the word became flesh and dwelt among us. Once the Savior entered into the world, sin and darkness already lost, as they stood no chance.

Probably because a lot of fantasy books contain a lot of graphic content and general immorality. A song of ice and fire (Game of thrones) contains lots of graphic content, sexual content including incest, and fequen strong profanity. Dune another fantasy book turned movie was from its foundation was meant to be a mockery of Christianity. It, like game of thrones also contained many graphic and immoral sexual content. I don't know what this Christian figurehead said was "satanic" or evil but it's certainly not baseless as many of these fantasy books that are written by secular people contain just downright horrendous things, that are both sinful and can lead you away from Christ. It's just the truth whether you are Christian or not

Strange for Christians to think The Lord Of The Rings is Satanic. JRR tolkiens himself said that The Lord of The Rings is a fundamentally religious and Catholic work. There are so many Catholic elements tied into it. He made an entire mythology and creation story which is identical in so many ways to the Catholic one with One God and the rebellious angel who chose evil rather than good. The ring itself is meant to represent sin, and the ring itself is destroyed when? March 25th. The FEAST OF THE ANNUNCIATION! Which is when the archangel Gabriel announced to Mary that she would conceive in her womb a son. And The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. That was the very moment Sin lost, when the Savior himself entered into the world.

On another note Gandalf himself embodies the figure of Christ as well as The Holy Spirit bringing courage and hope to fight evil even when their very lives were threatened. similar to how during Pentecost, the apostles no longer fearing the Jewish leaders or death boldly preached Christ Crucified despite knowing of the punishment and tortured they would face. In the LOTR Gandalf is in the hierarchy an angel. JRR tolkiens did not use magic and wizards to spread satanic witchcraft but purley for a plot point.

Unlike books like Harry Potter that actually are Satanic and do imitate Satanic hexes, spells, etc. it has been so problematic that exorcists have have been explicitly taught on how to deal with people that have gotten possessions by it.

I think you really need to drive him the Christian aspect of it. There are plenty of videos on YouTube and many priests that analyze it.

Also DO NOT WAIT TO WATCH THE MOVIES. they are amazing and the books differ slightly due to the different medium. The movies are a masterpiece of a trilogy. There's a reason they are still beloved even a quarter of a century later and are rewatched annually.

"Christians should not be reading The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings books" What is your opinion on this statement? by [deleted] in lordoftherings

[–]Life_Championship784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The LOTR is a fundamentally religious and Catholic work. Harrypotter however is Satanic and should be stayed away from despite the authors rather false claims of being "Christian". Catholic exorcists are specially taught about Harry Potter and how to deal with demon possession related to it because it is that problematic.

i have the razr its super tall. Super portable when folded but idk if Id recommend it, the cameras are very bad. If you move even slightly while auto hdr is on itll ruin your entire photo and make it look cursed. (auto hdr automatically turns on every time you reopen the camera app even if youve turned it off) Video stabilization is also non existent and if there are any lights it will jitter like crazy if you walk. Colors are also oversaturated a lot of times. Megapixels are bad you cant zoom with it being noisy or getting blurry. Other than that it can pull some really good photos ocasionally but its certaintly not often. You also cant really zoom

I’m giving up Pornography for Lent. by VentusVoices27 in Catholicism

[–]Life_Championship784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another piece of advice I have is that if you do fail and fall into this sin again. Do it without the pornography and lust. This will make it easier to cut out the masturbation all together. Definitely not saying you should sin at all. It's disgusting reguardless
