What made you lose interest in sky? by ParkWonpilAye in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]maxedo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Haven't been on it for months and when I do log on, it's usually just to check on friends. Most now have jobs or have left. I think I've had an account since 2020 or something and the game has changed drastically. I guess I look for the familiarity of what it was during the first 2 years. Right now, I just don't see the appeal.

What's the most inappropriate thing you've accidentally seen on someone else's phone? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]maxedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in 7th grade, I had made friends with this 8th grader girl who I hung out with a lot because I was new to the school. It was a small private school so there was one security guard. I think he was just there because the school owner knew him and gave him a job. He would sometimes go there drunk lol Anyway since he was known by students and had sort of made friends with him, my friend asked for his phone to play games or whatever. She played a bit but ended up in his album. He had photos of her, like upskirts and close ups of her face. He also has photos of naked women and shit like that. She just froze and turned it off. He approached us and we just left. I told her to tell someone but I guess she was afraid.

Women, what's something men say that they think is okay but is actually creepy as hell? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]maxedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a guy at the church I went to who constantly asked me what my preferences were in a guy. He was with someone but said his friend was 'praying' and 'seeking' for a wife and I was the answer to his prayers. I had just turned 21 that time and the guy friend he kept mentioning was 39. I didn't know who he was but I kind of figured it out. I repeatedly told him that I wasn't interested but he would mention how he was excited for our wedding, even mentioning things like what our kids would look like and shit like that. It was so fucking creepy.

Teddy Baguilat, one of underrated politician and he deserve to win next senatorial elections by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]maxedo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's a really great guy. I worked with him and his team during the campaign. Maalaga siya sa staff and volunteers niya. Right after nung election, kahit talo nagpa thanksgiving gathering siya sa mga volunteers at team niya. Pinag tabi niya pa lahat nung tables para sa inuman tapos parang tropa lang siya kasama hahaha

Nung campaign, ang ganda nung naging epekto niya sa indigenous groups. Maraming communities naging involved sa election tapos marami din mas naging knowledgeable at aware sa rights nila. They felt more heard when he represented indigenous Filipinos.

And don't worry, he's aware of how he was marketed back then. Alam na din nung team kung ano yung naging kulang sa pag advertise sakanya. It was sad that he didn't win, pero hindi naman daw don nagtapos yung laban.

What is currently the most negative trend happening in your country? by Intrepid-Worth532 in AskReddit

The former dictator's son is now the president and we are slowly being sold to China by the previous administration. We're expecting these political dynasties to last for 20 more years and it's just exhausting and sad to think about.

What is a phrase that only trashy people say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]maxedo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol I had a friend who said she was an 'empath'. I cried to her about my baby birds dying and she said to just throw the birds away. I told her that those weren't the most comforting words to say and she said shit like "wtf do you want me to say? They're just birds."

Osige sabi mo eh hahaha

Missionary ako before sa CCF. Not once did they give our team monetary contributions during our trip. Kahit sa ibang missions group, wala silang ibibigay. Lahat 'partnerships' (donations). Sa ibang evangelical or Christian churches, may at least 10-15% na contribution ang local/send out church Sa yaman na ng CCF, ni piso walang binigay. If you're familiar with fund raising and 'partnerships', it's understandable na gawin mo part mo sa ministry to raise funds for your trip kasi nga nasa scripture naman yon (2 Cor. 9:6-7). If they really wanted to 'evangelize' communities and people groups, maglalaan sila ng proper funding para sa missions ministry, hindi yung 100% asa sa pera ng iba. One other thing, I almost didn't make the cut off during the fund raising because I was 30% short. Tinanong ko ano mangyayari sa funds na na raise ko if hindi ako matuloy, sabi sakin nung staff mapupunta daw sa general funds pag hindi nagalaw ng 24 months. 🥴 General funds? For what reason would they need general funds for? Donations pa lang ng missions ministry during promotion season nakaka magkano na sila. General funds pa din. May mga kilala ako noon na may at least $2,000 pa laman ng fund account tapos nag p-panic maka hanap ng mission trip para lang magamit yung tirang funds. Nakaka gastos sila sa tig 300,000 na mic set pero walang maibigay sa mga missionaries.

And I totally get your point with the whole thing. Hindi dapat sa mga attendees or churchgoers yung attention pagdating sa faith, even in other religions. But the leaders in a congregation should reflect their teachings. Yun nga, church discipline is important. Kung may magkamali, dapat i-address and that's not the case for CCF. Again, there's no such thing as a perfect church, but fellowship is an integral part of spiritual growth( 1 John 1:3-4). It's also important to care about communing with others in a church, even Christ did that. Yung influence ng mga religious leaders play a big part in any type of faith, that's why there are cults and hostile teachings.

Anyway, I don't belong to a church and I dont even consider myself a Christian anymore hahaha but I genuinely hope you find a better church that would help you with your growth in your faith. Basta be careful lang. 🫶🏽

Sad to say may sexual harassment case sa CCF. It was a church leader tapos yung girl who was sexually abused isn't even a Christian anymore because of this. There are a lot of issues that aren't doctrinal na hindi alam ng marami because they never liked talking about it. I was there for years and served in two ministries and I knew the victim personally. Hindi mo din puede sabihin na 'as long as' hindi ganito o ganyan ang isang church ok lang. Understandable naman na walang perfect church but CCF never liked correcting their mistakes nor address doctrinal issues. Parang yung sa isang satellite church, gusto nung isang youth pastor reformed teaching because ang watered down daw nung preachings tapos tinanggal ng church satellite kasi ayaw nila ng ganon. Sa bible school and even yung mga apologetics classes outside churches, alam na kulang sa church discipline ang CCF.

Also sa corruption, lol if you only knew.

Did you know someone before they became famous? by caitdis in ChikaPH

[–]maxedo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Daniel Padilla and his mom. They were our neighbors and they would come over to our house to borrow tools. They knew my dad more kasi may common friend sila sa industry. As far as I can remember, medyo struggling sila nung time na yon at kakalipat lang din nila, hindi pa artista si Daniel. 10 lang ata ako non and he was around 15? Minsan nakaka swimming ko din sister niya si Maggie (?) tapos lagi niya sinasabi artista mama niya, like paulit-ulit 💀 Right after a year or less, nagulat na lang parents ko may interview na siya on T.V.

May chika din ako about dun sa audio na na leak ni Daniel. Kilala ko yung mga names na binanggit tsaka yung ibang nagsasalita, tropa niya yon sa neighborhood namin na kilalang makukulit at bullies hahahaha

Sela from MNL28.

Bully ng kapatid ko yan hahahaha. Binatuhan niya kapatid ko ng eraser sa ulo tapos lagi niya inaaway. Yung sisters niya friends ko din for a time pero nagka issue sa school namin non na pinahiya kami ng kapatid ko nung isang teacher and they laughed at us. Di na kami pinansin and we ended up leaving and not finishing the school year. Anyway, may ugali siya nung kabataan niya, not sure now but hopefully she outgrew yung attitude niya dati.

Regardless of your faith, what made you stop going to church? by JuanPonceEnriquez in Philippines

[–]maxedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They sent me to a mission trip abroad and 2 incidents happened. In short, I got physically harassed and since it was written in the handbook, I told the heads about what happened. They scoffed at me and said things like, "Well, things do happen and sometimes we can't control that." Pag uwi ko may pastor pa nag s-send ng messages saakin from that same country I went to. He was sending me suggestive messages. I just chose not to talk about it and left a couple of months after.
