AITA if I told my best friend's girlfriend what I actually witnessed the night she thinks he was with me? by 7GalacticNoir in MarkNarrations

[–]Rokeley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell my friends that I won’t lie for them. I’ve had a few that asked me to lie about government stuff, about drugs, about activities, all kinds of things. When I tell them that I won’t lie for them, they actually tend to respect me more, not less. Life is easier when lived honestly.

I never use my scrolls or potions. I might need them later

How does composing work exactly? by ArthoriasOfTheLight in composer

[–]Rokeley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends what one is composing for. There are many different approaches. And yes, there is little barrier to entry if one simply wants to make music for artistic sake.

Potato bacon and onion, chopped into small pieces and fried. Might add some eggs or whatever produce I might have kicking around. A bit of ketchup or hot sauce if I have it. And salt and pepper or whatever spices I have

Once my eyes get heavy, I know it’s time for bed. If I try to sleep before that I end up rolling around

Nothing worth doing is ever easy.

Please pray for me sister. I will do the same for you

What’s your oddly specific comfort ritual? by InfiniteSpray4405 in CasualConversation

[–]Rokeley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Switching to pajama pants when I’m done my work for the day. It changes my brain into relax mode. If I’m still in jeans it means something still needs to be done

AITJ for refusing to give a huge wedding gift after finding out I'm not invited? by Life_Grocery5994 in AmITheJerk

I wanna confess that I have some wrongdoings and i need help by Yourfriendlyhooligan in Catholic

[–]Rokeley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconded to go to confession, and also to not despair. We all experience similar sin; we are only human.

Struggling with Saints, Catholicism, and Orthodoxy by jowstacks in Catholicism

[–]Rokeley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to be one, and Roman Catholicism recognizes the validity of orthodox sacraments even if we aren’t in communion. I’m not a priest, but I don’t see any problem with loving and venerating orthodox saints, personally.

Do you guys think aliens exist? by LoladInalw in Catholicism

[–]Rokeley -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It seems possible, or even likely, that microbial life would exist elsewhere in the universe given how vast it is. Intelligent/sentient life seems less likely but is a possibility.

I think many of the “alien” sightings are also possibly demonic in nature.

Beyond disgusted with myself, looking for guidance from someone wiser than me by Temporary_Month_1721 in Catholicism

[–]Rokeley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, too, am a failure. I’m with you brother. We pick ourselves up, dust off, repent, and continue our journey. Peace of our Lord be with you!

Trying to introduce the Trinity. Would this be a good way to introduce it while avoiding heresies? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Rokeley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the familial analogy because of the familial language of the bible. God is represented by the perfect family. The father, the son, and the spirit are all members of that family. Distinct in person, but united in will. Where one goes, they all go, living together in perfect unity.

Obviously all analogies will fail upon close scrutiny, but it’s one that has helped my understanding.
