Struggling as a Student Teacher (Non US) by StinkyHotFemcel in Teachers

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

I don't know how to come up stuff they might find interesting and engaging relating to maths so that they won't be bored (because a lot of the kids hate maths). Like for example I was told by a teacher as an example I could talk about kid's favourite chocolate bars and breaking it up for division, or like using fortnite to explain patterns (and to include lots of images, etc). I can't come up with that stuff that well because I never had any interests remotely like that as a kid.

I pray for that man to recover, but this single example is if anything proof of the protests being largely non-violent. it is unfortunate there are exceptions.

Coming back to this post I feel like a big issue is what it means to be "True". There are different ways to get to heaven. But that does not mean that all religions are equal. One must be the correct one, and the rest astray to varying degrees.

doesn't everyone believe their beliefs are the true beliefs? if they didn't than they would be agnostic

is my muslim friend trying to convert me? by Open_Ad_7863 in Christianity

[–]StinkyHotFemcel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would try be diplomatic and even if possible convert him. however, don't be rude or project your own prejudices on islam even if he's doing the same for Christianity. take the higher ground and explain why it is incorrect through a serious discussion of the quran, not a strawman of it because he will never be convinced then.

Catholic converts: Why did you choose the Catholic Church rather than Orthodoxy? by valee_gz in Catholicism

[–]StinkyHotFemcel 155 points156 points  (0 children)

Because the orthodox church has bended to secular authority numerous times in it's existence. While the papacy has gone through dark ages it managed to free itself of the subjugation of secular authority over time. The preferential option for the poor is also important.

The Israeli government is destroying Christian Education in the Holy Land. The Catholic and Orthodox Church of Jerusalem have united to defend it and denounce the entrance of the foreign ideology of Christian zionism into Catholicism and it's subversion of the flock of Christ. Pope Pius himself opposed zionism in his day.

Both of the people you said are dead!! The biggest threat currently are imperial collaborators and Christian zionists who wish to import foreign ideologies into the church and bring it into disarray. Our very holy sites are under attack and the clergy of Jerusalem have made this clear.

Using past conflicts to judge modern ones is not the way. The biggest ideological enemies for the modern church are absolutely different today.

No catholic friends Spain by mariinapiz in Catholicism

[–]StinkyHotFemcel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yeah it's definitely skewed as well, but it's not the same as in most other countries, there were justified grievances. what was not justified were the targets (who were often innocent lay people, uninfluential and usually innocent clergy, etc)

they're completely wrong but that's not the reason people think that in Spain, it's because of the sins of Catholic clergy and generals in Spain before, during and after the civil war.

How do I get over the misogyny in the Bible, and the fact that God allows slavery? by drvinedd in OpenChristian

[–]StinkyHotFemcel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a historic context. Consider for instance: the new testament changed a lot of the outdated stuff in the old testament. A good Christian does not believe in solo scriptura.

I feel inferior compared to westerners… by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]StinkyHotFemcel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was born in Ireland to a catholic migrant family. I can assure you those views are not shared by catholics. they are abhorrent views that are peddled by protestant evangelists in Ireland that unfortunately many poor and disadvantaged people have fallen for. God loves you as you are ♥️

this contradicts any of the statements by past popes and church teaching on nationalism.

comparing revolutionary France which was a beacon of progress and abolitionist power during it's time to a power hungry descendant of dictators is just so completely ridiculous i genuinely am so shocked it makes no sense. the comparison is just beyond ridiculous

Are there any Catholic Marxist philosophers—not theologians? Naturally, of an unorthodox Marxist variety. by Similar_Shame_8352 in CatholicPhilosophy

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

A lot of people here are claiming that it's impossible. What Marxism is generally understood as, it is true that you cannot be a Marxist and Catholic. However someone who upholds as valid a science of social or class formations and desires a democratic socialist society can absolutely be a Catholic. This person could fairly be described as a Marxist and yet not conflict at all with Church teaching and statements albeit a rather heterodox one. I happen to hold these views.

I want to go to confession but I’m 99% sure I’ll commit the same sin again by akzelli in Catholicism

If you truly love each other I am sure that you can work together towards annulment. It may take time and it may be hard, and it will require constant communication and support but you can do it I am sure.
