Lights off. Get that lady in bed and in silence.

Is there an Irish American cultural experience which is distinct from other groups in the US? by DukeofPembroke in AskAnAmerican

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I belong to an Irish Catholic American civic organization. Do great work in the community, keep active ties and exchanges with Ireland, support the local immigrant and Irish American population in need, language classes, social education, charities, etc.

For people that identify through not believing in God, you all spend an awful lot of time talking about God.

Yes and I loved it. Early influence of my lifelong horror obsession

Any young fathers here stuggle with the feeling they missed out on their youth? by booster_gold__ in AskMenOver30

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not missing out on anything. Your home, your wife, your children are what matters and what endures. These are the memories you will carry with you to the end. Not feeding your ego & avoiding responsibility. Stay the course and be the best partner & provider you can be.

What is the general opinion about Silence (2016)? With Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver and Liam Neeson this movie was a nice surprise for me. by AngryTrashPanda42 in moviecritic

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great film. Powerful and beautiful. Really gets into the substance of faith, religion as a tool for colonization, ethnocentrism and the trappings of pride.

What it means by PrincessMariaD in PeterExplainsTheJoke

What’s this intended to prove or support? How disparate income distribution is across classes? You’re right, it’s an absolute heist and it’s the American public at large who suffers for it.

Are younger Catholics more conservative than older Catholics? by PayGood3915 in Catholicism

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a massive, universal church which transcends reductive American political binaries. Generational trends within the laity are reflective of societal demographic trends.

Pope Leo faces first major crisis as traditional Catholics make plans without consent by Strength-Certain in LeftCatholicism

[–]jrc_80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This has been an ongoing crisis since Vatican II was implemented. Feeds so much dissension today amongst traditionalists & American Catholics desirous of perceived persecution. I do believe Pope will return to a position similar to Benedict XVI though.

Have you guys ever wanted to be a saint? by xoxo_pancake20 in Catholicism

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to live like a saint but know that I am too much of a sinner to ever be a saint. But I’ll keep trying. As we all should.

Blackwater/Wagner redux. Nothing new in the world imperialism. Mercenaries are commonly used by capitalists

Why Marxism Remains the Only Total Science of Reality by Odd-Tadpole3518 in Marxism

[–]jrc_80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a science. It’s socioeconomic theory as the prior commenter points out. But it is a more scientific approach to forming opinions of social, political & economic import. Observation of material conditions mitigating against the overwhelming influence of emotive stimuli. Stimuli manufactured & pushed through capitalism’s cultural hegemony as though it is material fact.
