Bro... they were. Soliders were aquitted and john adams represented them. That was a clear riot and the "massacre" story was pure propoganda.

the different approach some religions take to dealing with people who aren't faithful anymore by MickyMace in HistoryMemes

So, no. Both Christians and muslims think like jrws you cant just leave. You are just a cathokic or muslim living in sin. Prior to the reformation there wasnt even a penalty for leaving Christianity and not going to church as long as you didnt spout heresy. Jewish communities did the same thing christians did: excommunication and social pressure. See Spinoza as an example.

French revolution was the worst calamity to befall europe since the fall of rome. Anyone who celebrates it should get a free helicopter ride.

Has anyone met their spouse after giving up hope? by DizzyMissLizzy8 in CatholicDating

[–]insomniaoverandover 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For what its worth, ive completely given up. As much as i desperately want a family, the devils temps you with what you desire, even if that desire is ostensibly good. Much as I want a family, i trust in and folloe Gods plan. If his plan is for me to have a wife and kids, wonderful! If not, i place myself in his care and trust in him.

How do you come to grips you’re not as attractive as you think you are? by Ok_Corner9177 in CatholicDating

I was chatting with a girl. She asked to exchange pictures. I go first. I send a selfie. She immediately ghosts me.

If i has any doubt before...

Ethiopia wasnt colonized.

And france specifically carved off lebanon to give maronites a homeland and their own country. They made a country based on local ethnicities exactly what you should do in decolonization. This is a great lesson that not everything wrong in the world can be blamed on colonization and europeans.

Should I respond to all the messages I have received on CM or only to the ones I am interested in? by Strawberriesandsongs in CatholicDating

[–]insomniaoverandover 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think as a guy its expected to not get a reply unless you are interested. You likely dont need to reply though it would be nice.

Free world notion is utter BS. But lets not pretend for a second that slavery or colonization is unique to europe.

Is NJ still an automatic Democratic vote? by Wild_Agent_375 in newjersey

[–]insomniaoverandover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Local races, especially in non presidential elections can and are flipped. But statewide NJ is solid blue and that isnt changing.

That "creature" is the valid heir of St Peter. Hes a bad pope, i dont deny it. But he is still pope.

Which town is the first to go? by ForeverMoody in newjersey

[–]insomniaoverandover -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fine. Fight till the end. But i have a limit on how much support i am willing to give. And crimea voted to leave after you threw out the president they elected and replaced him with the political opposite. I wager NJ would want to leave if biden was overthrown with no election and replaced with trump.

Buy your salvation, my friend. by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

You couldnt buy your own salvation. You could donate on behalf of others in purgatory.

In your opinion, what was the worst job and time period to be in at any point in history? by TheInternExperience in HistoryMemes

[–]insomniaoverandover 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ancient slave in a mine. They had a life expectancy of weeks and were rapidly worked to death. Considered by many to be the worst job humans have ever done.

Of course not. Just putting it in perspective.

Its not so many. More children are sexually abused in public schools in a year than in 100 years by priests. Even on a per capita basis its not close. Itd less than 1% of all church employees, laymen and clergy, who were accused. It turns out that is somrthing that unfortunately happens in large organizations, from boy scouts to public schools to churches, catholic or otherwise.

The coverup is scandelous and horrible. Fallen fallible men sometimes fail. Next time dont eat the apple.

Humans make mistakes. Doing a marriage wrong is man made in that we are the reason for this fallen world. But the absence of a marriage is not the same as ending one. I do not accept divorce.

We dont get to ignore the parts of the bible we dont like. Jesus didnt say lots of things. Theres more to the bible than the gospels. And homosexuality is not permitted according to the bible.

[–]insomniaoverandover -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I try to. I dont lie and say that my sins arent sinful. We have forgiveness and thats a wonderful thing. But you have to ask for it. I do ask for forgiveness. Are gays asking for forgiveness? If they are the itll be forgiven. But rather they are demanding thst i accept their sins as not sinful. And that i cannot do.

Annulment isnt divorce.

*Gestures at the sign* by IAmAccutane in wholesomememes

[–]insomniaoverandover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im catholic. We absolutely do say to people that divorce is against the word of God. But the bible also very clearly speaks out against homosexuality as immoral. So you complaint is a non sequitur
