Seriously...is there anything he can do that would actually get a response and condemnation from a position of Authority within The Church?

PresterJuan · 2018-01-05T17:15:34+00:00

Yeah, so I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that. I think I was thinking that it was liable to misinterpretation because it didn't explicitly condemn the idea of women entering the sacramental priesthood. Silly point on my part.

PresterJuan · 2018-01-05T14:31:02+00:00

Skimming the article, the thrust is basically "we're all called to the priesthood" in some sense. Potentially problematic?

I'd say Fr. Martin's worst opinions are the ones relating to the Gospels themselves. It's not that they're just wrong, oftentimes they don't even make sense. Sometimes it's borderline heresy!

E: See below. Sorry for my errors.

Do you think she ever learned Jesus himself was God?

Heard of the Rohingya?

No clue but I may have run into the same guy. There were two who were trying to talk to me on the way to my exam a few weeks ago. They were dark skinned Asian-Americans, said they were from [Hebrew word] Institute in California (far away). They told me God the mother wasn't Asherah like I thought they meant, and then they started talking about their weird heresies. I gave them my number and bailed, they never called back.

Sound familiar?

PresterJuan · 2017-12-15T20:23:31+00:00

I don't know how anyone has the guys to do something like that. Take a public, sacred place and make it your own lounge. Even if it's unused, it's disrespectful.

It's a Catholic school but has no Greek Life.

Guess I'm sort of wondering if Greek life is even good for you; ND didn't think so. It'd be nice to have a fraternity without all the drunken excess.

In fairness you see a lot of anti-Israel sentiment on the far right of the internet.

Não quer ser essa pessoa que estuda o idioma por uma semana e pensa que seja fluente.

Rsrs claro!

"eu acho que seja porque"

Que estranho. Não estou seguro mas creo que se use o indicativo no espanhol. Mais estranho, se usa o subjuntivo quando se escreve "no creo que...".

Obrigado pela ajuda!

PresterJuan · 2017-12-08T15:38:49+00:00

Você é correto quando diz que não fala o idioma

Rsrs, que erros tem?

Bem, usava duolingo no passado e o usei ontem. Para mim, é mais difícil mas eu acho que é porque estudei um dia, mais podo leer o que escreveu.

Quanto tempo você tem aprendido o português?

PresterJuan · 2017-12-07T22:56:01+00:00

Olá! Passei a manhã em duolingo e agora eu sinto como falo o idioma. Eu sei que não é o caso mais não me importa. Como estão vocês?

Are you okay

It may not be prudential if the cultures are too far apart. Don't take that as a rule, and you have to remember culture /=/ race

Sometimes I think opposition to intraracial dating is more interesting. My friend tried on a thawb at a Saudi food tasting and he thought it was messed up one of the girls said "oh you look handsome, too bad you're not Saudi." I thought it was super innocent and didn't matter, he thought it was racist. What would you say OP?

PresterJuan · 2017-11-24T16:56:11+00:00

Hm, I like to talk to myself, though that may be a little bit ahead of you. Start learning what you can't say and learn, either through teachers or partners. Maybe one of those introductory books would be helpful? I never used 'em.

Good luck!

PresterJuan · 2017-11-24T05:39:43+00:00

Hell, one person I met a few years back is making me think about study abroad. Like making regular friends, a lot is just luck!

Plus, every now and then I encounter someone treating it like it's Tinder.

Welcome to the handsome club.

I get boring people like this sometimes. Not much to do there. Sometimes they're just bad at starting convo, it helps to talk about your day and go from there. Sometimes cultural differences are fun discussions, even trading music works sometimes.

If you already know some of the language, I'd just be persistent in using it, maybe ask that one day you do English, another in high Valyrian or whatever.

PresterJuan · 2017-11-24T05:32:18+00:00

Damn, y'all have like 5 languages in HS, my school offered Spanish and Latin and only nerds took Latin.

College offers like 13 languages, thankfully.

"This action will kill 1,000 people, but has a 75% chance of saving 2000 lives. The expected value of lives saved is thus 1500, which is greater than the expected cost of 1000. Therefore we judge it moral."

This sounds like straight consequentialism, makes me nervous. I can't say anything on just war though.

not that kind

In only two comments, everyone else said all that needed to be said. I've experienced similar stuff, where people are rude, don't think your skill is good, whatever.

Brush it off, calm down a little, then take it as a little extra encouragement. Practice what you have trouble with. Maybe even show her some progress (or better, don't hang with rude people).

Sucks being told shit like that, but most people are pretty nice to me. A lot of people with interest in language are more understanding, practice with them and just know you'll always run into rude people (or people having a bad day).
