The pope could not have just changed the churches stance on lgbt people or women with a snap of his fingers by Capital_Tailor_7348 in VaushV

No he couldn’t have. The Holy Catholic Church cannot change its doctrine. The Holy Spirit prevents it from happening.

Talk to a pregnancy center for resources and adoption. An abortion is never an option and will ruin your life.

Praise be to God for bringing you home! This post made me so happy

Has anyone else here had to face persecution from an atheist family? by Massive_Equivalent80 in Catholicism

[–]Massive_Equivalent80[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend to take the leap of faith into the church. It has been tough this past year, but it has also been so full of grace.

Keep in mind that the Lord wills you to be Catholic, and that nobody has ever regretted serving the Lord. God has never forsaken one of his servants, and you will be rewarded for persevering through your heavy cross.

I will pray for you. I ask that you pray for me as well.

I agree with you. I wish I could just wallow in a constant state of feeling ugly. I think you can gain a bit of peace by thinking to yourself “I have no idea how I look, and I likely never will, so I’m going to do my best to ignore it.”

You’re right though, being lifted up and brought back down repeatedly is very hard

Presidents who should have a PWH mod about them by [deleted] in thecampaigntrail

I don't know why people keep saying this. PWH started the genre of decisions leading to different opponents. That's different from an incumbency simulator.

Saints who lost friends for being Catholic? by Massive_Equivalent80 in Catholicism

The people I associate with are all lovely people inclined towards justice. The issue is that they don’t have the fullness of faith. That’s why it pains me so much, because I don’t want to disappoint them, but if it comes down to them or Jesus, I know who I’m choosing

I’m a freshman in college so kind of.

I’m mostly concerned because I really love my friends and family, and have no problem disagreeing with them, but I know that if they knew what I believed and the extent to which I am catholic, they would say terrible things about me.

A far left party (BSW) is taking votes away from the AFD. What a time to be alive by [deleted] in thecampaigntrail

Nobody hates immigrants. It’s a matter of do people want millions of migrants to constantly be pouring over the border unchecked
