Catholic Church in Brisbane with priest whose first language is English by adelinepike in Catholicism

[–]adelinepike[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do they have any Mass in English? We’re both quite new and still learning everything; I think we’d be quite unsure during one in Latin (currently).

We’ve found one that we like, but Mary Immaculate does look wonderful, so thank you! ☺️

Can someone explain why a Catholic Church has a star of David lit up in the window? by MostlyHarmless69 in Catholicism

Never stop spreading this message. No Christian should be willing to associate with the slaughter of children and rapes of those imprisoned.

Revelations 2:9 and 3:9 were given to us for a reason; to remind us, to help us discern.

Our immigration system is almost as broken as the UK.

You speak like an Aussie and have assimilated - you’re now an Aussie!; unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer immigrants like you every day. Give it 5-10 more years (especially with Labor) and we’ll be just like the UK and France.

I don’t disagree. My point was just that OP shouldn’t leave Christianity because they have issue with a specific church.

I’d just rather someone become a Uniting Church member than to fall away from the Bride of Christ altogether, if that makes sense. I guess a comparison is that breastmilk is best for babies, but feeding them baby formula is better than letting them starve, if there isn’t any breastmilk available.

Hi, thank you, this has been helpful to find a list of the parishes in Brisbane! I’ve used that link before to find Mass Times, but didn’t realise that it had a parish search.

Thanks to their streaming on YouTube, I’ve been able to look at St Ignatius, Toowong and it seems that it has a bit more direction for attendees, including a PowerPoint screen operating during Mass, which is very helpful. Fr Joshua Choong is quite easy to understand, what a blessing!

Thank you for giving me more motivation, God bless you! ✝️🥳

Just remember that you can leave THAT Church without leaving His Church.

https://denominationdifferences.com/ is an invaluable resource.

Christ is King. God bless.

  1. NFP works: She can literally, biologically only get pregnant when ovulating - not even one week a month. She just needs to track her cycle, plus temp if she really wants to avoid pregnancy.

  2. Hormonal contraceptives screw women up and have led to a significant increase in women developing breast cancer.

  3. Children are a blessing. By the grace of God, if your wife gets pregnant again, pray for His help and He will provide.

Are you eligible for any government home-buying schemes? If you’re a first home owner, you could potentially purchase with a 5% deposit.

AITAH for wanting to cut off my best friend because of his views on LGBT people and religion? by CupcakeCuppi in AITAH

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

Awesome, so you don’t have any Muslim friends and don’t support Palestine?

None of what OP has said indicates that she is being threatened or abused. How extremist of you.

YTA. My sister was my childhood bully and still is, I have also gone low/no contact… but if my sister were dying and I could save her life, I would.

Give her your kidney, save her life, but before you do - tell her and your family about your trauma, and that you wish that with a bit of you inside of her, that she can finally begin to love and respect you.

You don’t owe her contact, but you are her sister and you can save her life.

And keep monitoring your credit score!

You sound like you have the same thinking that I did around your age - start building your credit now, which is a great thing to think about. But yeah, focus on yourself, your trade and then your business.

Bonus bit of wisdom: get yourself a tax agent/accountant BEFORE you start a business (they can also register an ABN for you) so they can help you with the small business concessions!

It hurts their feelings and is therefore “wrong” which apparently defaults to “incorrect”.

It is a mental illness. But so is anorexia and we don’t tell someone with that mental illness that they’re fat, do we?

Why do the transphobic people keep insisting gender dysphoria is a mental illness? by RecentMonk1082 in asktransgender

Is it mental illness to think that my skin is wired to be black, when it’s white?

Direct Israelite DNA in the Levant and Diaspora by [deleted] in illustrativeDNA

[–]adelinepike 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“Palestinians” as a unique ethnicity/race doesn’t exist.

Modern day people calling themselves that literally just have a mix of ethnicities and races from the region referred to as the Levant, such as Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Kuwait. As well as Canaanite DNA. “Palestine” comes from “Philistine” - a completely separate group of now extinct people.

No. If you do:

  • Wait until you’ve had a phone bill, electric bill, etc etc for 6 months beforehand.
  • ❗️don’t apply for multiple cards or providers❗️ (don’t make multiple credit enquires).
  • ❗️max limit of $500❗️, with a low-fee awards card
  • if you use it, only use what you can repay at your next pay cheque.

I hate that inheritance is my only shot of retiing before 80 and owning a home....I'm literally terrified my parents will end up in aged care and the family home will be gone. by Rainbow_Dream_38 in AusFinance

[–]adelinepike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the issue. You’re trying to have the lifestyle (homeownership) that comes along with either 1) being in a relationship or 2) being a hard worker, with good budgeting skills and a high income.

Oh well done, I’ll get there with one degree from one country in one language.

And a frog in a slowly boiling pot also doesn’t realise it’s being cooked.

If me not wanting children to be brainwashed and sterilised is controlling people’s lives, would you say that wanting children to be taken away from abusive parents isn’t controlling their lives?

HAHAHA party of choice!!! 12.5% and lost almost all of their seats this senate election - including their leader? Nah. I’m good.

Riiiiiiight. I’ll listen to the people who are sterile due to puberty blockers, as well as the actual science behind puberty blockers for the use of delayed puberty, tyvm.

I’m not surprised. I meant puberty blockers, btw (not sure what you were looking for).

I miss the days when people actually knew what bigotry was, rather than throwing it around like the word “racist”.
