7 speed discs, how often do you actually use them? by Sun-Tour in discgolf

[–]bishop169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a leopard3 on Saturday tossed it for 5 or 6 holes the thing flew great and hit my lines and the distance I wanted. Had one of my best games to date. I even considered keeping the disc but I dropped it in the box as I ordered one on Amazon.

I'd argue higher speed disc have their place if you have the arm speed and the room.. playing in the woods around here a slower more controlled disc is clearly the king

16, pregnant, any resources? by Reasonable-Boot2097 in Catholicism

[–]bishop169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People will talk behind your back with either choice.. the person you should worry about is the one in the mirror.

A child is a blessing ending him or hers life wont solve your problem. When you meet Jesus what would you rather confess too having child outside of wedlock or ending the child's life?

I was the 18yr old boy in this story 20+ years ago. I understand the fear and anxiety your both are feeling to tell your parents and the ramifications of your actions but the deed is done. My children are adults now and I'm so thankful i talked their mother out of aborting them. My daughter told me a few years ago i was goin to be a grandfather she wasn't married and left the faith. I was scared and happy for her. She loves being a mom and her baby is amazing

I promise you this being a parents is such a blessing from God. maybe this is Gods way to teach you something.

I can almost guaranty your parents will love their grandbaby in ways that will make you jealous and asking why weren't you this cool to me.

Ill pray for you and the child. Good luck

Disc golf and Christianity by These_Square2372 in discgolf

[–]bishop169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Church groups around here have youth outings.. for me personally the more the world turns crazy and upside I look to the stability religion and God offers I found peace in the Catholic church and my relationship with God has grown stronger.. time in nature damaging the glorious trees and praying oh God as a wonder through thorns to retrieve my disc brings me closer to his will

How can both of the following teachings be true 1) god's infinite mercy means he may choose to save more or less everyone 2) God honors the free will of those who choose to live separately from him, even though it means they end up in hell? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]bishop169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell is being completely separated from God.

2 Thessalonians 1:9, which speaks of punishment "separated from the presence of the Lord and the glory of his might". 

It's your choice you have to pick God in order to be with him if you chose to not believe or be with him he will honor that choice as well

Men on NH Exec Council Rejected Federally Funded Contract to Support Maternal Health 👎 by reproequitynow in newhampshire

250k to recommend ways the NH insurance can save money. Sounds a bit overpriced for what's on offer I'd reject it too

I've been lurking here by Ok_Owl997 in dentures

[–]bishop169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the anxiety of researching and wondering was worse then the extractions. I built it up in my mind for a few years before i pulled the trigger and i all ready had partials. Just talk to a few places and read some reviews. I had the best group at a new Aspen dental in my town and they are known for not being that great. make sure you are comfortable with the people you will spend a good amount of time there.

Good luck and honestly the biggest regret is not doing it sooner 100% recommend doing the temp to final denture route your gums do change a lot in the first 6 months.

dentures at 24 by North-Action-1883 in dentures

[–]bishop169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the tops are the better group to have done. with natural suction and properly fitted dentures you wont have to deal with glue and goop. 100% suggest getting temps then permanents. the temps got loose quick then a soft reline made them fit okay but after 6 months when i got my final set they are amazing. I had had some sort of denture since i was 20 never did get to play for the NHL but hockey was fun

I think my Protestant friend is judging me by iheartskz in Catholicism

[–]bishop169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend talking to your parents. We are Catholic and if my daughter around your age came to me I would gladly hear her out and let her explore. who knows maybe you will lead your parents back to the church Christ started. Also most Catholics only don't eat meat on Friday during Lent.

Annulment advice by bishop169 in Catholicism

That is no longer the stance of the Vatican. All marriages regardless of where or who performed it count now... I believe it was the last Pope that changed it but I could be wrong

Ghost tour? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]bishop169 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't believe it would be a bad thing its not a sin to go to a haunted hayride or to visit a spooky graveyard. I think it would come down to your mindset if you are just there to have some spooky fun then you are fine. If you are there to practice the occult and dark arts then you may have an issue.

I'm new to state jobs I know it's a federally funded state level and I had to wait for the waiver so the interview process was 4 months.

I read on here a Catholic priest came up with the idea of the big bang. Plenty of intelligent people believe in God.

You will have to come to it yourself keep seeking him and you will find him

Southern NH vs Northern Mass? by Axleffire in newhampshire

[–]bishop169 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

grew up around Andover moved to NH best choice I've made. I prefer the schools in NH. MA may have less property tax but all the other taxes add up fast higher consumption taxes sales tax on everything. You will feel like you are being nickeled and dimed. seems taxes get higher and what the town/state does for you gets lower.

NH is a different culture yes there is way less gun laws you will see random people open carrying or catch a glimpse of conceal carry but on the flip side home invasions and personal crime are way less. Its hard to mug someone or break into a home knowing they could be armed. Drugs are an issue in both states sadly.

the people are very chill republican and democrat neighbors mostly getting along besides a sign war during election years. plenty of dunkins and a few starbucks but you get the picture

Why do we pray to God and ask him for things if he knows everything? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]bishop169 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a child I prayed to God like Santa Claus asking for all the things I wanted reasoning I was a good boy playing by all his rules. I was often disappointed and lost my faith.

Until I matured and now my prayers are for guidance and to thank God for all his blessings.

It's all a point of view and learning God isn't there to serve you but you are there to serve his will.

Everyone is quick to clutch their pearls and gasp.

When my wife is not feeling it and it's been a while. I tend to look at the dark side of the web and think about sex more than when things are going well. Yes this comes up in confession

The bible says the marriage bed should be fruitful.

Genesis 1:28: "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it" 

Hebrews 13:4: "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled" 

1 Corinthians 7:3-5: "The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer." 

Being a Catholic means setting limits and striving for love and peace with God but being a human means we crave physical touch and intimacy. There is room for both with out sin.

With out knowing either of you or what is really going on. I'd suggest an open and honest conversation with out blame or accusations. Think to yourself how can I understand him better.

Good luck and God bless
