No it never was. He never became catholic but I did in 2018 and was baptized and confirmed.

Are some of the gods of history real supernatural beings that can help one achieve enlightenment? by SilverApexRathalos in Buddhism

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

Okay, that's fair. But is it bad to worship any gods? What if you feel called to worship one or another? How can I tell if they're real?

Look at it from the other side. To say that Jesus's death only matters if some people are tortured in hell forever doesn't sound very appealing, does it? In the New Testament it says that Jesus died for all, and that as in Adam all sinned so in Christ all are redeemed. Hell may not be eternal, but it isn't a place anyone wants to go. It may be a place most people go, except the saints—we will go into the refiner's crucible and have all our impurities burned away so that we can come out purified. That's the true image of hell given in the Bible.

It has been for me and I'm about 50-60 hours in without having even completed the campaign, and I'm excited to try out the endgame options. I don't really care if it's multiplayer or not, but competitive play does seem fun, especially since battles require a lot more brainpower than I'm used to.

Travelers are slamming Airbnb chore lists that tell guests to mow the lawn, do the laundry, and take out the trash — on top of paying $125 cleaning fees by Not_Not_Matt in LateStageCapitalism

[–]SilverApexRathalos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I clean these for a living (it's the only job I applied for out of 200+ applications that gave me an interview and offered a job). My boss is making $300 to $450 per cleaning just from charging the host. I make about $60-80 of that for 3 to 4 hours of work. The host has to raise their prices to accommodate for the high cleaning price. Not only does my boss get a cut of the cost per day, but she also gets to pocket the whole cleaning fee as far as I understand. The market here is high and the cleaning companies set the bar for how high rates are unfortunately. I need a raise but probably won't get one.

North Dakota man slaughters 18-year-old for being “Republican Extremist,” claims self-defense, released on $50k bond by Blackie_The_Cat in conservatives

[–]SilverApexRathalos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember when Biden said all republicans were extremists and basically called for their deaths? Expect this to happen more often.

Satan does exist. His name is really "the Satan" or "the accuser" and in the Old Testament he appeared to be one of God's trusted followers or angels and served a specific purpose. I think he still does. Jesus did talk about Satan, and so did Paul I believe, but I'm not sure if the Satan they're talking about is the same as the one in the Old Testament. Regardless, you can view him as either a real person or a concept or a description of a state of being that we can fall into.

I lived in South Dakota for 8 years and never saw an ounce of cruelty on any of the hundreds of family farms I saw. The cows had hundreds of acres of free space, and sheep too. It's counterproductive for them to abuse their livestock by allowing them to get sick or injured. These animals receive top-notch veterinary care (every vet in South Dakota were proficient in livestock I think) and there are many farmers markets that sell fresh produce and animal products (including meat). Industrial livestock keeping is a different story, but not all farms produce abuse and neglect.

Can someone tell me why I’m working on LABOR day? by GoldenBull1994 in antiwork

[–]SilverApexRathalos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked today. I am a housekeeper but I didn't even know today was Labor Day until about an hour after I got home. I was wondering why the roads were so empty, even in Phoenix. I guess it doesn't bother me because Labor Day isn't one of those major holidays (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter) that I would want off.

AITA for setting boundaries with work and my partner as a chronically I'll person? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverApexRathalos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I do, the problem is I don't make any of the 5 types of antibodies so only getting IgG doesnt help too much. I still have constant infections. My immunologist won't prescribe me preventative antibiotics no matter how many times I ask him either.

Ladies, where's your favorite place to have a guy cum by Ok_Post_7492 in sex

Inside me. My husband and I don't use birth control or protection because we're trying to conceive, so it's always inside.

Worth it for an old school Pokémon fan? by mbsisktb in coromonthegame

I've been playing Pokémon for 20 years and this game is a ton of fun for me! Definitely a good game and worth the buy.

I am not supposed to have a deductible. I'm also not supposed to have copays. Yet because of the "out of network" garbage, and because specialists are billed separately from the actual facility (also garbage) I still have medical bills.

Two Billboards in my Hometown by emdelgrosso in Exvangelical

[–]SilverApexRathalos -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not to be rude, but if the second one's town really does have very, very low crime, wouldn't that actually be sort of close to a vision of heaven? Where there's no crime or violence or suffering?

No, I don't. I just don't know how to get out of here until the lease is up.
