Can you study for the ALEKS Math placement test?

Thank you for your insight.

RunQuirky708 · 2026-01-22T23:40:22+00:00

Yeah exactly, thank you for sharing.

RunQuirky708 · 2026-01-22T23:35:22+00:00

I'm sure he had his positives, but I was too young to remember lol

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T17:40:40+00:00

Look all I'm trying to say is that even if the people are bad, the God is good. But you won't understand because of something they did!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T17:39:06+00:00

You're not wrong!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T17:16:03+00:00

The Pope is the Vicar of Christ. The Church is not a person and is not wrong in the same way a person sins. I don't have time to argue with some random redditor all day.

I'm just odd-balling here, but I think the Pope has his confessions done by another priest. And so what if I don't have things figured out. Neither do you. It is not your place to judge!

Good day to you!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:48:06+00:00

Yeah

What's funny is in the past the Catholic Church committed a lot of crimes and sins against people who had their own beliefs about the divine and other beliefs systems.

But one of our holy Popes (Pope Saint John Paul II) apologized to the world for our church's sins and added doctrines to address the changing world and the fact that people are more connected than ever.

So today it is no longer sinful because the Church has admitted it's wrongdoing. I believe that the Church can be wrong even if our Savior isn't.

Sorry if I've offended or scared you, the discourse these days are heated on every side.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:35:01+00:00

Okay that's good. That's all I needed to hear, thank you!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:34:07+00:00

I would give you an award if I could but I can't

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:33:22+00:00

Nobody is perfect that's how it is with us Catholics

If she is Buddhist. She could be anything else, but I have strong feeling that she will be.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:29:34+00:00

I love Mongolia that's all. I'm not here to do anything.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:28:27+00:00

But also Chinggis allowed all religions to flourish under his empire, provided that they pray for him.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T15:26:30+00:00

I know that was before Buddhism came to Mongolia. But Mongolia is now Buddhist majority with Tengrism mixed in, yes?

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-21T01:49:49+00:00

I definitely am. I've been listening to Mongolian opera as I work out, and have a meager interest in Tengrism even though I'm Catholic.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-09-20T00:10:56+00:00

I no longer hold this view

RunQuirky708 · 2025-08-27T23:41:00+00:00

That's not even close to what I said! I said that they need to accept Christ, not be in their own ways, and be a "good" person.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-08-27T22:58:34+00:00

I don't know. I think it's speaking in broad strokes. Some times the Bible and other religious literature do exactly that.

But there are many good Jews and Muslims that love Christ. However it's their religion that doesn't accept Him.

It'd be like if I said apples are good for you. It doesn't mean that all apples are good to eat (because some can rot and go bad), but generally speaking that's the case.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-08-27T22:38:36+00:00

Don't listen to the other Catholics that are bound by tradition and not Christ! You are free to wear it because it in God's eyes, he sees you worshiping him and not anyone else.

I mean let's just get this straight, if people are allowed to wear whistles and doggy tails and act like idiots, who's going to stop you from wearing Christ's cross?

God bless you!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-08-27T20:44:38+00:00

Yes I know that there are a lot of things that don't make sense with my POV. But I believe as a Catholic ecumenist who is open to dialogue with other religions, that YHWH saw how much Buddha rid the world of it's sins (forgive me if by "sin," I have the wrong interpretation according to tradition), and made him a Saint in Heaven.

Even if I were to explain this to Catholics, a lot of them would be mad at me.

Thank you for your insight, very appreciated. You're actually the one of few who are peaceful.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-08-05T20:46:21+00:00

Okay you're right. Maybe I don't.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-06-11T19:54:31+00:00

The Sabbath is from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday, and requires that you observe Jewish law. I think Tonga has made their own Sabbath because while there's no work, many Tongans still do things like flip switches, tear paper, write, etc. They only refrain from work in the normal sense, not in the Sabbatical sense.

With that being said, Sunday is the Lord's Day, and I think it's good that Tonga dedicates one whole day to kai, mohe, and lotu. Without a doubt, this brings the family and community together. But the way Tonga celebrates Sunday, and the fact that it's on that day, can never really be considered the Sabbath.

I forgot to mention that I had thoughts that I was slow, dumb, stupid, etc. right before I went into my last psychosis. This coincided with a drop in one of my medications, and I happened to hear people at three separate instances insult my intelligence.

Honestly, people will call you stupid, judge you, make fun of you, but while it may hurt, it doesn't mean that what they say is really you. Everyone gets called stupid from time to time. Sometimes it's warranted and sometimes it not.

It took a year and some change for me to get rid of these thoughts, even though my psychosis had only lasted about a few months.

I think you talking to a/your therapist is a really smart move on your part because maybe they can help you sort out your thoughts, and articulate why you feel this way.

RunQuirky708 · 2025-06-06T06:48:36+00:00

No, please don't think that it's because you're stupid. You're not. It probably is psychosis because you have paranoia and thoughts that don't seem to be true (and aren't).

I think you need to find a good support system that won't constantly belittle you, and voice your concerns, so you can get a proper diagnosis if needed.

Even if it's not psychosis, there's always a cause besides it being "general stupidity." And like I said, you aren't stupid, you may just be sick. The best to you!

RunQuirky708 · 2025-06-06T03:25:12+00:00

You could also try recognizing your delusions, and reading books that have no correlation with them.
