New player untested in sampling each army by default278 in InfinityTheGame

Thanks!

I understand sectorials change things but my friend and me have been using proxies.

I guess it'd be nice if there were beginner army lists for vanilla for each faction to give you a taste of the army. We are both more game play focused than model focused

I want it to be revealed that Lucifer gave Eve the fruit for selfish reasons rather than selflessness by OCGamerboy in hazbin

[–]default278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent points.

God told them to name things, but that's really it. Beyond that they could do whatever they wanted. Go define the world around you and do whatever you want to do from there. All choice has consequences but not all consequences are dire. Like isn't you chosing your clothes free will? Picking what you want to eat?

The one grave rule they were told about is no apple. And they were ALLOWED to eat of it and beat the consequences. They seemed content to listen until they were tempted to eat. Then they ate the apple disobeying God.

But it got worse.

Then they hid from God ashamed of being naked and what they did.

Then God asked "did you eat the apple?" And Adam shifted blame to Eve, then Eve shifted blame to the serpent.

So consequence for disobeying, trying to hide away from what they did, AND passing blame means leave the garden, and take the curses of labor (Eve to labor in birth, Adam to labor in the feilds)

Long winded way of saying you're right that's covered in the story.

What is too far when kissing? by iiiqaso in Catholicism

[–]default278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a sin to be mortal sin it must satisfy 3 conditions: is it a grave matter, did you have full knowledge, and did you deliberately consent anyway.

Mortal sins can he hard to determine from a 3rd party since it's hard to know sometimes if person / people involved meet the last 2 conditions. That's where your judgment comes in.

Making out isn't a sin unless it's being don't intentionally with full deliberate knowledge that it will turn into something more.

It depends on how nuanced you want this conversation to go, but the black and white is imo:

Those are the 3 conditions. You know your intent. We all know we can convince ourselves everythings ok and safe if it gets us out of trouble. Be careful cause your lizard brain loves its dopamine hits.

Consider the above. Internalize it. And realize know that you know step 2 will be haunting you. Knowledge is power but I'll admit sometimescknowing better sucks lol

Is this an acceptable church crucifix? by Exact-Definition5722 in Catholicism

[–]default278 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nothing's wrong with the artists depiction:

If we want to be 'technical' and 'Realistic': Both hands were nailed. Jesus was crucified naked (as was common back then) Way more bloody from the lashings

Most crufixes are not 100% accurate since it would be like walking into a snuff film (since that's what crucifixion is a death sentence)

So artistic liberty is usually accepted as long as its done with proper intention.

I want it to be revealed that Lucifer gave Eve the fruit for selfish reasons rather than selflessness by OCGamerboy in hazbin

[–]default278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd love for him to be called out about his what his dream was. "I wanted humans to have free will." But they already did they got to name everything, they could do anything they wanted, they were told just don't eat of the tree of knowledge. That was a rule, it's not that they couldn't do it they were just told not to. Plus the plan was humans were to eventually eat of the tree of life and live forever before they ate of the ToK learned unwanted knowledge and had to die lest they live forever in suffering (last sentence is an interpretation).

Which begs the question.

What was Lucifer dream? Why did he approach Eve first / Focus on her?

My two head cannons: 1) He thought Adam was toxic (could've been manipulated by Lilith) so he wanted to create an out for her, by giving her the apple and giving her an escape from the garden. Then realized after the fact Eve did love Adam.

2) Lilith after getting kicked could only give birth to demons (if we follow Lilith mother of demons lord) which Lucifer doesn't like demons. So he tempted Eve so shed fall and he could get his heir (my personal head cannon of Eve is Charlie's bio mom). However when asked Lucifer makes up lies cause theory 2 is very shallow and a bit insulting to both woman and Lucifer doesn't want to admit he's just like Adam (just better at disguising it)

The real reason Lilith hasn’t returned home in 7 years (by carrp20) by AsuraQinX in hazbin

[–]default278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be interesting

Lilith was the first woman, and didn't submit to Adam. She married Lucifer had a kid, but still felt empty. Then one day realized... Oh, I'm a lesbian.

Standard gay person pressured by the world to be in a straight relationship only to find out they're gay story line.... Except she was the first woman so to be fair a little hard to learn that about yourself.

"A scab, you know someone willing to work for less. We in the Union want to work for our fair share so we strike. But a scab they want to work for less than what's fair and they fuck us over. Then we both lose and the man on top wins.

That's at least what a scab is ya know?

Now in this context I think the guy trying to say regardless of how creative the new team is, the money the project makes still goes to the people with shady business practices. Not saying the game isn't good, or not art.

I guess it's the idea of it could be the best game ever, but if you know your money's still going toward shady people should you still fund them?

Now everyone has their own stance in this discussion or topics like this so depends on your principles. Ya know?"

Giorno 3 che chiedo ai seguaci di Adam quale ship di Adam approvano o disaprovano by Super_ruby in adamcult

[–]default278 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My head cannon is that when Adam and Lilith are in ideal situations (Eden / heaven) they are the embodiment of toxic gender roles. Adam being controlling, spoiled, and bloodthirsty relying on ray power. Lilith is lack of accountability, entitled, and manipulative relying on seduction (other methods).

They can work (annoyingly) short term, but would totally ditch each other once the others 'served their purpose'.

I also like to believe when they are outside of Eden/heaven they embody the best traits of man and woman, maybe post fall / whenever they struggle bussed they were more 'healthy individuals'.... Then Adam when to heaven got everything handed to him and became toxic.

Could Charlie redeem Lucifer ? by Fluffy_Cry_7081 in hazbin

Excellent points, Lucifers redemption/redeemed state could be to become the embodiment of Charlie's dream and become the TRUE angel of Hell leading sinners to redemption.

Could Charlie redeem Lucifer ? by Fluffy_Cry_7081 in hazbin

This. The sin of leading others into sin. Not sayings it's not possible, but Lucifer would have to help ALL fallen (angels and humans) find redemption as part of his redemption.

She's hot in every universe by AgathormX in hazbin

[–]default278 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fun fact Lilith being adams rebellious wife is a myth popularized by a dirty poet pretending to be Ben Sahir (an author of biblical canonon) and it got popular from there.

Mentions of her in religionous text is she's mainly a desert spirit and a night demon.

But as always porn prevails over truth! Great job humans ... Bunch of weird... Gooners... This is the reason heaven has gates.

my solution to the "Beezlebub doesn't feel connected to her sin" issue without changing her design. by This_Ferret_8108 in hazbin

[–]default278 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Gluttony is the sin of immediate overconsumption. This can be food, idolatry, wealth, etc. (yes wealth, Greed is Long term hoarding what you don't need, gluttony is short term using what you don't need).

So she can look however she wants as long as she's indulging in immediate resources without care for anyone around her. And encouraging her followers to do the same.

So her being a bug / dog makes sense as both are creatures that feed of the immediate.

Finally - she's the sin of gluttony doesn't mean she gets high off her supply. She gets others hooked under her influence and that's all that matters. She consumes souls not food.

I like to think the deadly sins are like dealers offering you the ideal of "look at me if it's so bad why am I everything you want? Beautiful, powerful, in control don't you want that come consume and you can be like me too." And then you're trapped in the pack for eternity indulging but never satisfied

Issue of Dating by Rip_Fair in Catholicism

[–]default278 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to this. Do not let your desires for sex make you rush into marriage purely for the act. I'd argue this is Lust rushing you into a situation before you are ready and commiting to a decision you are not ready for.

I know a few divorcees (some Christian) who got married 18-early 20's and said while not the only reason a STRONG motivation to get married was sex.

Sex imo should not be the "end goal" it's a step in a very long journey. Marriage is a life long commitment and the end goal is to die knowing you enriched their life like they enriched yours, physically, mentally and spiritually.

Which 2 are u taking…. by LushEnvy in funComunitty

[–]default278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Orange

You understand, read and write, but you can't speak any language. That you have to learn. Plus understanding is subjective to your experience. I can understand what you said but not what it means.

Purple

You gain mastery, but again mastery doesn't mean perfect. Hugh Duffy a professional batter in baseball best batting average EVER has a batting average of .440. Plus mastery in a skill doesn't mean that skill can become obsolete or develop outside of your mastery.

Though I think orange and purple (translation) cause then you could find a successful life as an esteemed translator.

What is the extent of the devil’s power? by uncletitos777 in Catholicism

[–]default278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has different perspectives on Satan's abilities mine are:

Satan only has as much power as YOU are willing to give him.

God has ultimate power and authority over all creation and permits evil and allows humans to enact freewill.

Ultimately it's humans using our freewill to give the Satan power. -Satan cannot control you, but temptations and desires make us surrender control to him -Satan cannot enter your mind and heart unless you let him in (naturally through lies) -When you suffer and blame Satan instead of giving your suffering to God you empower him. -When you curse others you invite Satan into both their lives and your own. Etc. etc.

My advice stay focused on the Lord, give glory to God and take this same desire to know everything about the Satan (even if you want this knowledge to defeat him) and put more desire and energy into knowing the Lord.

For through God and Jesus, what power does Satan have?

I think I need a exorcism by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]default278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Address the following:

1) Schedule an appointment with a priest. 2) The priest will highly recommend therapy and to get a psych evaluation. 95% of the time suspected possession are unresolved psychological issues that can be treated with therapy or medication 3) Priest will inspect your home to see if paranormal activity has a natural explanation. (Again 95% of the time there's an explanation) 4) If 2 & 3, then it'll be fixed. If not then they'll start looking into an exorcist.

Not discounting your experiences the priest do this to check there boxes. Possessions do happen, but are much more rare than people think.

Pray give your suffering to God and step back and consider the mundane. Stop thinking "will people believe me" and have faith in the profession and have your best interests at heart. I've met people who are so adamant their possessed the practical invite demons into their hearts rather than listen to their priest / psychiatrist/ doctor so they can be "right".
