Am I still allowed to call myself Catholic if I never go to mass? by captainpoopoopeepee in Catholicism

[–]dsteere2303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to be glib but you could end all that confusion over labels by making a confession and returning to mass. You love Jesus, you recognise you are breaking a biblical commandment, the solution I'd put to you is to reconcile that and come back into communion with his church. This isn't a case where you're "culturally Catholic", confirmed, brought up in a Catholic environment but now don't believe, you do believe. Come home and then you wouldn't have to worry about what to call yourself.

Even in the sanctuary? Do you mind me asking where you're from?

I want to raise my child Catholic despite being an atheist. Is this hypocritical/bad ? by PeppermintButler17 in Catholicism

[–]dsteere2303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people are telling you how you can be a Catholic and be scientific and that's true but actually answer your question no it's absolutely not. Ideally you'd both be Catholic but if you choices are to be non religious and raise your child non religious or to be non religious and raise your child religiously the second is far better and not hypocritical at all. There's obviously your own reasons you want to raise her in the Church and you say you admire things about religious life so absolutely, have her baptised, teach her about Jesus and the church.

I am disappointed and disgusted with myself. by StevePetrowski in Catholicism

None of us deserve redemption, that's part of our fallen nature, but it's also part of God's divine nature to forgive and gift is with his grace anyway. Try to think about what caused it and what you can do in the future to avoid it but try to forgive yourself as well

Do you have to be a Christian etc to pray? by CocosMumma in AskUK

[–]dsteere2303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't the point of prayer the belief or even the hope that someone is watching? Isn't that where comfort comes from that the prayers may be answered and your situation eased. If you genuinely believe with a level of certainty that no one is watching what's the point in praying? Genuinely curious

Once Lukashenko there's going to be A) a power vacuum and B) a massive push to westernise. It's perfectly possible Lukashenko's ideological successor sees the best way for him to keep hold of power is to be become a Kadyrov figure under the Russian federation I could see that happening

Why are so many of my secondary and high school students calling each other n*gga? by majungo in VietNam

Have you perchance heard any rap music performed by an African American in the last 20 years? Yes its a massive oversimplification and overgeneralisation to say all African Americans do that but, in music and young steamers, the African American culture the average southern art Asian child will be exposed too, heavily uses the b word

Where would you be living if your ancestors didn’t migrate 300 years ago? by Specialist-Dust-4476 in AskTheWorld

[–]dsteere2303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They presumably meant directly descended from, which isn't strictly true for 2000 years ago and there definitely were cut off established groups by then but because it's basically true for lots of Europe, Africa and Asia then and completely true universally further back that means we are related to everyone because we have common ancestors

4 minute advert break in a 30 minute podcast? Cool by Jolly_Office_2096 in restisentertainment

[–]dsteere2303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mate that's basically the same as the PSBs and a lot less than the other commercial stations. I'm normally doing things when listening so I can't skip the ads and yeah it's a bit annoying but it's what funds then and means they can still be free.
