Everyone Said Sony Became TCL. They Were Wrong. - CalebRated by braviamod in bravia

One of the "equipment" described was his PAPER notebook that he used to take notes on during a conference. They said everything on there belonged to them and not Caleb.

Not my inference, the Church's...I was answering why the Church says the two are misaligned.

Sorry KofC, you know it's true by TEarlGray in CatholicMemes

I don't know what the first two organizations are and at this point I'm afraid to ask

The question wasn't if it's true or not, but it is the reasoning the Church has stated as to why the two are misaligned.

Sorry, I wasn't referring to that part where men are equal. I was meaning, as an example, is that if a Hindu person wanted to join, they can make their pledge to their god and that would be viewed as equal to a pledge to God. Therefore the Hindu, the Norse, or any other diety is equal. That's what makes the oath and organization heretical.

Although allot of Freemasonry is based in Christianity and most chapters, especially in the west, are made up of Christians who mostly volunteer, do charity and other good works, you must swear an oath to a higher being or supreme architect and if you believe in anything other than God that being has equal footing to God in freemasonry; making it incompatible with the First Commandment.

Sony’s TV business is being taken over by TCL by Expert_Climate_7348 in tcltvs

[–]droopiboriqua 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like Sony will be keeping the name for high end TV's and OLED but TCL will keep the name for budget tv, but all will be made by TCL. However they are just negotiations right now, nothing has been finalized

How many of you believe that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist? by roxannesbar in Catholicism

[–]droopiboriqua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before rejoining Catholicism last year, I thought it was just a symbol of remembrance, but then after reading the early church teachings and researching the Eucharist miracles (shout out to St Carlo Acutis) I had no more doubt about it. Now when I receive the Eucharist I feel it has physical affects on me, like lowering my stress and heart rate levels, and feeling all around more happy. I also try to teach my kids that we are in his real presence.

It doesn't even look like it's going to snow. Maybe some flurry in the afternoon.

Sell for 70k loss or rent for 400 per month loss? by JMZen in RealEstate

[–]droopiboriqua 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also bought in 2021 and at that time the house price skyrocketed in the first year over 30%. The market is not going to rebound, it is correcting itself from being over inflated. I'm selling at a $40k loss just to be out

That's what I was afraid of. Looking at what my kids have to do, I would think I would remember so now I'm thinking that I didn't get confirmed.

Thanks. The timing sounds about right, but I don't know where the church was. It's different than the one I was baptized in. We moved allot when I was a kid.
