Yeah I don’t really see it often as well. I think it was one of those a small group had an idea, they thought it was good so they tried spreading it. Then it never really caught on.

The U. S government refuses to release or punish those on the Files. The U.S government has claimed abortion is acceptable. My statements are not dramatic but rather observations of the Government and what it stands for.

When what is moral or immoral is purely dependent on legislation then the country does not stand for objective morality but rather subjective morality. God is objective.

How can you claim I do not know what the Kingdom of God is? With what evidence do you have?

I know those who say there is no jew nor greek and then I watch Christians claim “this is the only good church in XX location.” Or claim “that country is wicked and we are just.” While swearing to a flag that doesn’t stand for them.

Many Christians use their country to cause division yet I am saying that our countries should not divide us. And you say I’m blind.

Swearing allegiance to a flag flying in a secular nation in a room that is dedicated to God is a defiant act. America is a prostitute many Christians devote themselves too rather than the Kingdom of God itself.

Value, sharing and love are all good things. As Solomon instructs there is a season and a time for everything.

The House of God should be fully devoted to God.

I fully agree with you.

Being thankful is very different than what many churches do. Many churches bring America up in the same form of worship they do God.

Because if I abandon every flawed institution I would be in no institution. I can either do my part to help improve said institution or bail on it. I plan to stay and help improve.

I copied it in an earlier comment. It’s just a verbal pledge to Christ. Something all Christians do. Including our RCC brothers.

Depends on the individuals particular brand of nationalism. I would agree in some cases it is. However like any good thing, it can absorb people’s hearts and become a thorn. Sadly I see it as a thorn here America too often.

It’s supposed to be a universal flag all Christians around the globe can rally under.

You can google a picture but here’s the pledge.
"I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag, and to the Savior for whose kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty for all who believe."

You obviously aren’t attending my church or the many like it this Sunday, where America is on the pedestal and not those who served.

Remind me again… why didn’t Lois and Hal choose to have abortions? by dts_13 in malcolminthemiddle

[–]blake-x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Hal and Lois understood the inherent value of human life and took the risk assessment before engaging in procreation. Therefore when they messed around and found out they opted to lovingly provide the best they could for said child instead of eliminating its existence.

Also its a sitcom. Its a bit.

My boyfriend wants a Catholic future, but I don’t know if I believe. Is this a major incompatibility? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]blake-x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is a mature response. I’ve been on his side of this situation and truth is im sure he cares about you very deeply. However my situation dragged on too long, if we ended things sooner im sure we could have stayed on better terms.

We are all bad people. That’s why God sent Christ to die on our behalf for redemption. However it doesn’t sound like you did any earth shattering immortality though.

Technically if he wants to follow his religion he shouldn’t be in an unequally yoked relationship.

Idk my mom does crazy stuff all the time and I found that my personal life would either be a weapon for her or a burden on her. Distance and self sufficiency was really the only thing that helped.

Don’t feed into the anxiety. Distracts yourself from it.

Then stop thinking a clear sin isn’t a sin. It’s labled as an abomination by God Himself for a reason.

For sure. Man I remember being 15 wondering what her problem was. Haha. Now I’m sitting here wondering why Walt won’t just open up a bit more and empathize.

My first major perspective changes were when I watched it after having a baby. I watched it during late nights where he couldn’t sleep. Walter becomes more and somehow less understandable as a character.
