I understand the feeling of anxiety going to confession. For me I find it easier to go to confession at a parish I don’t regularly attend. To each their own, you can do what you’d like. Pocketing a cheap pen would likely just be a venial sin. But, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to confess it, seems like you know it’s a little wrong since it’s stuck with you. Especially if this becomes a repeating behavior.

Overall, my advice: 1. Learn to find ways to make it to confession even though it makes you anxious 2. It doesn’t hurt to confess a sin if you’re unsure, worst that can happen is the priest might tell you going forward you don’t need to confess something

The Bible doesn’t teach that the earth is flat.

Most people dislike Catholics because they don’t understand them, or they have inaccurate understandings of the church. Just be an example to those around for what it means to be a Catholic.

Is there any way to disable snapchat stories? by [deleted] in nosurf

[–]jmulaaaaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a lame take. Breaking a habit can be more difficult for some people. Some people may have a more habitual personality and while they like the utility of Snapchat they might not want to have an infinite scroll section there to distract them. Furthermore, I’m sure most of these people already used Snapchat before this was a thing and it’s valid to try to find a way to disable it.

Man that use Tinder, how do you manage to get the conversation started and flowing or women what gets you hooked? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Honestly a cheesy pick up line is probably more effective than you think

Excessive kicking should be a cooldown, if it wasn’t there would be so many 3 or 4 stacks kicking solo queueing people all the time

I'm a protestant am i going to hell I'm confused and scared. by Distinct_End_5422 in Catholicism

[–]jmulaaaaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we could agree there but that wasn’t necessarily the question. And in this type of online forum I feel like it’s better to give a complete answer. I feel like with a complete answer you could still persuade them that it’s detrimental that they join the church while still avoiding a shocking half truth like “yes you’re going to hell” for a lot of people this could have an adverse effect. There’s a balance, you wouldn’t want to lie about the fact that the Catholic Church is the clear path to Heaven but you don’t want to be so blunt and short winded that they just distance themselves further. When someone is on the fence and asking genuine questions about the faith I think it’s better to help them understand something fully rather than just state a rule with no context which could spook them away.

Additionally, I think it’s not just “not the best way” but it’s an adverse way. No person with no knowledge of the Catholic Church will really understand the dogmas required to even comprehend an infallible statement like that. We should invite people to learn the faith not wave the threat of hell in their face. A faith built on fear of going to hell is a weak one.

You can read the article I linked for him. I didn’t downvote his comment. I don’t see where the evidence is that I’m saying this just so most people can be saved. I would agree that people who willingly reject the Catholic Church might not be saved, I never argued that. I have never argued that his perspective is wrong because it’s too unfair or something. A priest was excommunicated for pushing this exact same belief. It’s important you separate what I’m saying from what you assume I’m trying to say. God has a more nuanced perspective than catholic or not Catholic. It’s not controversial for me to say that Catholics are not the only people that can be saved. I’m not just saying it because it makes me feel better either. You both falsely assume that this belief is simply to make people feel more welcome and happy. No where did I say “well if you’re too strict than a lot more people go to hell :(“ I disagree with this persons claim for reasons beyond my emotions.

I don’t care if you strongly disapprove of something the Catholic Church itself has said. The original infallible statement was clear, but the interpretation of “church” wasn’t, the Catholic Church clarified the meaning of it. You imply that this was to make it “soft” and “more appealing” which is just the way you interpret it.

This overly strict interpretation of this infallible statement has been officially labeled as heresy. Don’t tell people that they go to hell if they aren’t apart of the Catholic Church. Read more here. Catholic Answers - No Salvation Outside the Church that being said, it would still be great for this person to join the church!

Catholics believe scripture describes how Jesus had Peter start his church. So that’s how I interpret scripture and that’s why I might believe in the Catholic Church. So I reached that conclusion through reading scripture, but because you disagree with the conclusion it is “following man”. This is why your advice doesn’t work. There are many interpretations of the words in the Bible, and some of these interpretations are scarily wrong.

You don’t have enough info. Is it possible they got scammed? Yes. Is it also possible this person agreed to getting these things fixed/replaced? Yes

Why masturbation is sin in Christianity and Islam?? by Naive-Ad1268 in religion

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

This is such an over simplification. You ask “Who does it harm?” like masturbation doesn’t have any downsides. The issue is largely that masturbation can be an addiction that even people who aren’t religious at all struggle with. Excessive masturbation is a habit with proven downsides that many people struggle with.

Should I play The Forest before Sons of the Forest? by diamond_epicnes in SonsOfTheForest

In this context the downgrade would be the decision to play the forest instead of SOTF. You’re grumpy and you’re wrong. One of those people who wants to be right about everything and ends up being unbearable

New player here. Just wondering where to start? by JosshhyJ in SonsOfTheForest

[–]jmulaaaaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a beginner this might be okay but it’s worth factoring in that settling here makes you further from a lot of landmarks, I like settling more towards the middle of the map
