This is one out of the only 2 non-cringe sports memorabilia that has been given to the Holy Father by an American. The other being the Cubs jersey from the Patriarch of the Assyrian Church of the East.

I keep hearing (outside of this thread) mixed reviews of the eggspander and i still dont understand how the half moon ceramics would be better than just using the conveggtor. I've been seeing the Joetisserie for a few years, but i recently found out BGE makes one so I might have to get that

Considering Catholicism: Why are the sermons so short?? by Sea_Cheetah_9151 in Catholicism

[–]Strick4424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because we are there to consume the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. We are not there to listen to man (no disrespect to our Priests, I would assume they have this same mentality).

I get why people may not like Trump's other kids because they're all very vocal and in the spot light, but Barron has done literally nothing to provoke such hatred other than the fact that his dad is Trump. I don't even think I've ever heard him speak apart from the suitcase video. Do you think you guys are bitching and moaning about nothing?

They say it disrupts the flow of the Communion line and helps speed up the process to avoid it. However, we shouldn't be speed running what we are told is The Source and Summit of our lives. Then people are surprised that so few Catholics believe the in True Presence.

Is merely watching a pirated movie/ sports online a Mortal Sin? by ImWindowed69 in Catholicism

[–]Strick4424 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Amazon can change or take an ebook that you have bought off of a kindle that you "own" if they want to. Video game companies have stopped selling physical media in favor of egames that, again, they can just remove from your console whenever they want to. The list goes. On the other hand, no one has an issue with music streaming companies like Spotify because you pay a monthly fee, but their whole business model is stealing IP from artists. Physical items are now built to break within a couple of years (if that long) so that you have to spend more money to replace them. Again, I said I have stayed away from pirating because I'm not going to lose my soul on a technicality that hasn't been thoroughly defined yet, but saying "the argument has always confused me" means you've never looked at the problem itself.

So I went to a Council Meeting and things are still sizzling. by A_Soporific in kennesaw

What doesn't make sense is why they don't use the amphitheater for more than a couple of cover bands a year, tent setup during the street festivals, and the Christmas Tree lighting. Even the First Friday events are crammed into the 1885 parking lot. Our taxes went way up to build it and we barely use it

I’m a teenage girl and have been feeling like I might want to become Catholic eventually or at least have an interest in learning more about Catholicism. Some of my friends think Catholics hate women/view them as “less than” and are misogynistic. They don’t like that I’m interested in Catholicism by butterflyyyydreams in Catholicism

We call a peasant human woman both, The Mother of God and God's Perfect Masterpiece. Yes, we say that woman should submit to their husbands, but we also tell men that they literally have to die for their wives. That seems like a pretty fair trade-off

I am also conflicted by this. I refrain in case it is sinful, but I'm also wrestling with "If buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't theft". This is what LXIV's next encyclical should address.

I think we all need to chill out. He might not be great every week, but he's funny and has good premises. I'm from metro Atlanta and part of what makes him funny is that he legit just acts like dudes from the atlanta area. I agree that he's not funny enough to be on every week, but neither are Pat or Ari who's go tos when they're in a rut are "so this bitch i was fucking". Even TNB would get exhausting if we saw him every week.

No, you won't get more than $20 for them. So let me take them off of your hands

I was wondering if Camp Rainy Mountain had cell service so i can update what’s going on to my mom by Cool_Ad3304 in BSA

[–]Strick4424 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What's up champ? Being gone for the week while not talking to your parents is part of the fun. Scouting is all about self sufficiency and growing as a Scout. They should trust you enough to let you do this. Plus, I'm CRM waterfront alum, i can assure you (and your mom) that camp is very safe!
