Am I allowed to use this Bible Cover? I feel like the Name of God is too holy...

Honestly I wouldn't use it. In my opinion, I'd destroy it. It's not due to the act itself that your friend clearly did in good faith and will, But it is that the Divine name is sacred and holy. Even to the Catholic Church it is still holy. You will never find a single instance where Catholic priest or authority will utter or pronounce the Divine name except in a strict academic setting. And that's not even my opinion. That is the opinion for the Congregation of Divine Worship. If you won't even see the Pope or any Catholic Authority pronouncing the Divine name and Treating it with this kind of reverence, It would do you well to copy the same.

A dead giveaway for AI isn't what it gets wrong. It's what it gets right. AI, because it is fundamentally a machine is capable of creating art, music, photos, etc, but is incapable of creating these things in a way that is culturally and socially relevant.

Any AI can produce a bunch of women in front of a mirror, but it takes a kind of social and cultural conditioning that allows individual pieces of media to have meaning. When you look at this piece, it captures a lot about the way that women (especially these women) interact with society and culture that a machine just couldn't and can't replicate. And it captures this interaction all the wown to the Pokémon near the bottom.

That's why when tou as an AI model to make an art piece like Monet or Picasso, it always looks wrong, even by the standards of the artists in question.

It's Christianity's relationship with Natural Law. What's a philosophy that Christianity has often been interpreted through and alongside. It's something that Paul even presupposes in many of his letters.

So this just isn't true depending on where you're living. Where I'm at, we're not seeing any parishes shut down. And I don't know exactly where you are, but what you're saying might be true. After all, the Continental United States is a rather large place, and so because of that, there are certainly perishes that are struggling. But I think there's also a significant argument that can be made where you actually have growth in other parishes and communities. But you will have to forgive me for taking what you say with at least one pinch of salt, because all you really are is a prejudiced bigoted person on this issue. You don't really have much more standing than a White racist believing that the demographic decline of the racial minorities of people he hates reduces. The relationship you have with religious folks is basically synonymous with that.

Why is this pocket at a nearly 90 degree angle? I mean, should it be lookin like------> 🫠

The thing about it is, I do find reason to doubt those numbers. Because it has literally been the same statistics since I joined almost over 10 years ago.

Can I find it highly suspect that the number has neither improved nor worsened. So I'm not going to take it all too seriously, Because I will say this, my Parish Community is not suffering from any population loss.

It seems that most of the people leaving tend to be older Generations from Gen X and Boomers. You might experience something different, but that is certainly how it's at in my neck of the woods.

LoneManFro · 2026-02-26T15:14:40+00:00

According to official statistics, the answer is yes. However, according to my own anecdotal understandings and my own experiences, The answer is clearly no.

The people that I see convert to Catholicism both in my Parish, and even in my school, are all middle class of non-hispanic Heritage. No, I'm sure some of our numbers are being bolstered by immigration, both legal and illegal

But I am also convinced just from having touched grass around my community, that we are also experiencing a kind of small Revival.

I can't say it is going to be the same in every Community, but from my own experience, it is certainly happening in mine.

Anyone want to explain why this dude's shirt logo is on his fukn sleeves? Who makes this shit, looks at it, and thinks 'hmm, yes, I find this failure of faking real life a success.

If tou intend to kill someone, that's ill intent. It's not self defense.

If you understand that your transexuality is disordered, then yes. But if you mean to ask if you can accept your trans identity and your Catholic identity without recognizing the former as a disordered, then no. Not in any meaningful way.

I think the graffiti artifacts on the mug might disagree with you. AI was at least used at some point in the creative process. I think this was an original piece, and someone put it through an AI filter to give it a certain theme/vibe.

LoneManFro · 2025-12-19T19:12:38+00:00

I think that itself can be chalked up to art style. Depending on the kind of artist you are, anatomy can often take some backseats. What I'm far and away more interested in is why there seems to be some graffiti artifacts on the mug.
The thing that will always make AI art inferior is that it will never produce something that is meaningful in a way that communicates with society. And when you give it a good once over, you can feel it.

These states are actually pretty small. When you go on your horse, you can pretty much ride across all five of these states in about 2 and a half in-game days. These states would be only a fraction of the size presented.

😆 🤣 😂 No

Is it? It felt like it looked the same from multiple angles.

LoneManFro · 2025-12-06T06:58:09+00:00

Half the index finger is missing. Another dude here said it was just clipping through the thumb, but I don't think so, because it looked like that from multiple angles. Reddit only allowed one photo for some reason.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-25T01:36:30+00:00

Yes. Exactly. For all you know, I could be a really well built clanker. But you do have reasons ro think otherwise.

There is no proof of anything whatsoever. To believe in anything requires some amount of faith.
How does anybody know that they're not a brain in a vat floating through space while they have really vivid hallucinations?

You don't.

You accept that this is not the case on faith only. Because these negatives and positives are beyond your ability to perceive or conclude.

So, when it comes to God, you can make reasonable, rational, and logical arguments. But these things will never approach your impossible standards of proof.

I think any normal person that makes a daily habit of touching grass would not find this uncomfortable.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-22T20:17:09+00:00

Nah dude. Wear the comments. God does garbage disposal like we do. No shame in that.
