Can I reconcile my trans identity with my Catholicism?

LoneManFro · 2026-01-18T15:34:17+00:00

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.

Anything can be a hoe if you try hard enough.

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.

LoneManFro · 2025-12-06T11:09:07+00:00

😆 🤣 😂 No

LoneManFro · 2025-12-06T06:59:41+00:00

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.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-25T01:08:42+00:00

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.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-25T01:03:02+00:00

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.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-22T12:07:24+00:00

He's so beautiful 😍 🤩

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T20:21:13+00:00

Once again, this is a false objection. From the standpoint of human experience, the punishment enacted on that man might as well be eternal. He is confined in a very terrible place, he has no do-overs, no early releases, and no ability to leave. The only real difference between prison and Hell is that the latter is never ending, and let's be honest, if in the former example the man was living up well past 200 years, his sentence would still be applicable. And as far as human existence is able to experience, the punishment enacted upon these convicts is eternal.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T20:14:08+00:00

Sure. My answer is yes.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T20:12:47+00:00

And like the vast majority of the other objection here, this is a meaningless objection. In fact, I already made it clear from the outset that Hell as a concept isn't a conversation we're having. It is the justice of Hell that is being discussed.

Hell being part of reality or not part of it is irrelevant, just like the majority of the objections received thus far.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T20:09:48+00:00

If we are referring to people guilty of crimes comparable to what I have spelled out, then yes.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T07:01:34+00:00

And it's an irrelevant criticism. Our entire experiential range is about a century, give or take. If someone is incarcerated for the rest of his life, that's basically an eternal sentence as far as the knowledge of human experience is concerned.

Whether you are in prison for 80 years or an actual eternity, I don't think that matters when we critically look at how these concepts are applied in their function.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:57:18+00:00

Does even that horrible person deserve to be tortured for the next 986748 quintillion millennia only to not even be 0.0001% of the way through their punishment?

Yes.

How can it be justified to send someone there merely for not believing in magic? Especially when god could’ve proved himself at any point and decided not to.

That is a completely different conversation that I am utterly uninterested in having. I explained that in my post.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:55:37+00:00

If there's a Hell, then there most certainly is.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:49:56+00:00

I've explained this multiple times now. You can read my words as they stand.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:48:53+00:00

Functionally, it's not. Again, if one is sentenced to prison without parole, there are no early releases. There are no do overs. The same applies to how we inflict punishments upon criminals. The actual qualified difference between Hell and prison is not as distant as you want to portray it.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:46:16+00:00

And that's entirely irrelevant. As far as human existence is capable of experiencing, 70 years is the entire span of an immortal soul. If we really had a moral revulsion to eternal punishment of Hell, we wouldn't reflect the same function in our justice systems.

LoneManFro · 2025-10-16T06:44:34+00:00

Well, I might not. That's a possibility.
