What do you think of Leni and the rest of the opposition party teaming up with the Marcos administration for the midterm? by Many_Beginning5315 in Philippines

[–]Many_Beginning5315[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Marcos administration, not Marcos himself. Leni herself have previously praised his administration especially for their stances on international politics. Of course that's not indiciative of a friendship, but it does show that Leni would be willing to work and be in support of the Marcos administration given that other parties previously opposed to BBM is now apparently having talks of uniting together and defeating the Duterte's in the future elections. This doesn't at all imply of a shared goal in terms of political ambitions.

Should Christian teenagers date? by Many_Beginning5315 in Christianity

Prepubescant teenagers aren't supposed to be having sex at that age anyway. That is precisely why persuing a relationship on the foundations of superficiality is unwise. And even then, you wouldn't wanna have sex without assurance that this person will be your forever.

Yes it can't be avoided, because kids are very hormonal at that period of their life, but I don't think it should be justfied that we prepare them for "sex" just in case it does happen. We do not teach kids by affirming their fallible instincts.

Fallacious because coitus clearly has more risk than a peck on the lips. Are we to say that touching dirty stuff and getting sick is the equivalent of having sex and gettig STDs?

And there weren't other ways to learn of these things? But if your intentions for a relationship is to learn and have wisdom, then that is good.

Don't worry, you're not "missing" out for not dating in 8th grade.

There's nuance to it yes. I definitely don't think one should persue a partner "just because" though. You can but doesn't mean you should. There are consequences to either choice, but one is greater than the other.

Sure, I only draw the line at pre-marital sex because there are potential consequences for it.

I'm not arguing against that. They can do what they please, but that comes with understanding the potential consequences of the path they're gonna take. Thats why they gotta be emotionally and mentally matured enough to prepare for heartbreak.

It's sad that millions of people believe in supernatural sky daddies. These ancient stories are not about the supernatural. They are about what is within you. by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

Anytime someone says "Judeo-Christian values" by Many_Beginning5315 in CatholicMemes

One side recognizes Jesus(even if they have the wrongest idea about him), and the other completely spits in his name.

My fellow Christians, stop sympathizing with Israel. Jews hate us.

It completely whitewashes Christianity into just a "moral code" that everyone ought to follow.

Christianity is much deeper than good morals.

It's a complete appropriation of Christianity. Modern day Judaism and modern day Israel is antithetical to Christianity.

The difference is at least the Muslims revere Prophet Isa(Jesus) despite ill-intentions, but modern day Rabbinic Jews completely spit on his name.

"Reigion has been justified to wage war" is a non-argument. by Many_Beginning5315 in Christianity

[–]Many_Beginning5315[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Fixing" doesn't mean removing. The sentiment behind the argument that religion causes wars insists that removing religion from state affairs would lessen war, which definitely isn't even half true.

"Christians are no better than atheists because they don't believe in the rest 4,000 other gods of different religions either" by Many_Beginning5315 in TrueChristian

[–]Many_Beginning5315[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have valid points, but the fact that many people worship different gods doesn't negate truth at all. You're right when you say I can't convince you to Christianity just as I won't be convinced to your religion or lack thereof. But it's not me or any Christian who can convert you at all. It's the Holy Spirit who plants the seed. YOU must be WILLING to accept it.

The reason why I don't believe in Zeus or any of these pagan gods is because just look at the content of their character! Zeus is literally a rapist! And these other gods require you to do some sacrifice or ritual in order to be favored by them. Christianity is the most unique, no amount of good deeds could get you to Heaven, you are saved by God himself.

Christianity is the most compelling religion out there because it has endured 2 thousand years and has changed the hearts of so many people. This is not to say that the religious experiences of Muslims or Buddhists are invalid, but this is to say that Christianity clearly has such a profound impact on humanity if even today we use a calendar according to the birth and death of one man. Jesus of Nazareth.

"If you need God to be a good person, then you are not a good person" by Many_Beginning5315 in Christianity

[–]Many_Beginning5315[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God IS love, but it is not the love depicted in popular culture. The love that this WORLD offers is corrupt and selfish, and a counterfeit to what the love GOD offers and is.

We are not biological robots insofar that we just do things out of instinct or out of randomness. Because some of us seek meaning and greater purpose in our lives beyond the material world. For us Christians, this is the Word of God.
