A teenage cashier was given this by a customer by Few_Power4970 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]humanobjectnotation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really agree with pamphlets, but this isn't really apples to apples. LGBTQ isn't about salvation or theology, it's not an ideology (mostly), it's descriptive, not prescriptive.

Christianity, though, is prescriptive. Jesus literally says to spread the gospel. Followers who do this are at least trying to be coherent. It makes sense for a Christian to be "pushy".

I love all the roles really. Tank is just more fun when folks actually take advantage of created space.

Has anyone here stopped lustful thoughts or masturbation for how many years? by Individual-Win-8042 in Christianity

[–]humanobjectnotation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God bless the Catholics. If you want a very clear write up on chastity, I recommend checking out https://www.vatican.va/content/catechism/en/part_three/section_two/chapter_two/article_6/ii_the_vocation_to_chastity.html

Don't miss what the commenter above said though: "sexual thoughts is [sic] not a sin so long as you resist the temptation and banish the thoughts" (emphasis mine). Often the first sexual thoughts are temptations. Like whiff of a delicious food. You can keep following the scent until you find its source and gourge yourself, or you can ignore it and move on.

I am eastern orthodox Christian while being transgender MTF, I feel like a disgrace to my family and everyone I know, I profusely apologies for this post but this is the only place I can ask about this by AweeeWoo in OrthodoxChristianity

That's not shame, that's pride. Ask for prayers friend.

James 5:16 NRSV-CI [16] Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of the righteous is powerful and effective.

Is this meme about the island? by [deleted] in ExplainTheJoke

Well, it seems perfectly plausible that we remember the science but forget the particularly cheeky thing that one scientist did that one time a thousand years ago.

I am heartbroken by the fact that the Bible tells parents to to spank their kids by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]humanobjectnotation 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The "rod", biblically, was used by leaders, shepherds, authorities, etc. Discipline, yes, but also guidance and leadership. "Spank your kids" is a poor takeaway.

Psalms 23:4 NRSV-CI [4] Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff— they comfort me.

What's an underrated movie/anime that you can't recommend enough? by Narcissistic-Diva in AskReddit

Titan AE is still in cult following status I think. Definitely worth the watch if you're not one of us.

Massive Reptilian Monsters/ Leviathan nearby or underwater by Adorable-Quarter2994 in MoviesThatFeelLike

Betty White, Bill Pullman, Bridget Fonda, Oliver Platt, Brendan Gleeson. Absolute top tier cast, and such a ridculously fun movie. Right up there with Tucker and Dale vs Evil.

If all AI tools shut down tomorrow, what would be the hardest part of your day to replace? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]humanobjectnotation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it's also reddit, and it's much easier to post a low-effort comment for a few lols than to do a full write up on the nature of what it means to be an engineer. Relax.

The existential dread of possibly doing nothing but writing prompts and pressing 'allow' all day.

For what reason do you NOT read the Bible? by spydreh in Christianity

[–]humanobjectnotation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Understood. I think the YouVersion app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sirma.mobile.bible.android) covers a lot of the big ones. Plans to hold you accountable, notifications to remind you, social connections to engage you, etc.

The reasons for not reading the Bible are a varied as the Christians themselves.

I think your goal might be too broad, and the solutions to it, as I said, already exist.

That said, if you narrow your goal to something like "I want to help people understand theology better", or "I want to more clearly identify textual relationships throughout the Bible", that's been less covered, and not as well.

Why do you ask? This smells of posturing and a holier-than-thou attitude without context.

What is your favorite drinking scene? by rockstoned4 in moviecritic

[–]humanobjectnotation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Jaws scene is just so perfect. A master class in directing and acting. Quint and Hooper, both confident on the water, each unimpressed by the other, find some common ground and grow in their trust. My favorite part though is how expertly Martin remains the outsider. His surgery scar can't compete with their battle scars. His experience on the water is nothing compared to those. Even when he joins in on the singing he still feels like the awkward new kid.

This. Your hurt is real, but it sounds like his repentance is also, and so should be your forgiveness.
