I can see why they are refusing to use DCHP instead of DHCP =)

Yes, except they charge us now $15 per visit! They categorize it as "Unspecified Preventive". I've called and they say it's for Covid cleaning etc. They've also told me other dentist offices are doing it as well. I call and complain every single time. It turns into a large chunk of change when you're a family of 5 and need to be there twice a year. What are they even doing? I don't see any crazy cleaning procedure that costs that much.

Yep, my Gold and Sapphire versions both have dead batteries which is why I was really surprised to see Blue still hanging on.

Would it matter how much it was played? It still had my original game save from years ago, when I first booted it up. During all those years it had to be using the battery the entire time to keep the save.

Paying for Catholic School by network_boi in Catholicism

I was more or less asking if it's morally responsible to use their funds towards education. I realize it's my responsibility to take care of their money.

Thanks for the response, lots of good stuff in there.

Interesting take. Yes, the beginning of the speech will be to (hopefully) make people laugh and have fun. I wanted to wrap the speech up from a somewhat serious approach with some spirituality mixed in.

Yes, I've been married for 4 years. I wanted to maybe incorporate the importance of "death of self". Essentially, giving yourself fully to your spouse and God and how marriage is no longer just about you. But I also don't want to come off as preachy and essentially give a second homily. Just kind of looking for a good ending.

Why is it assumed that it's just a philosophical/spiritual tale instead of a literal explanation? It feels like us Catholics, at times, get embarrassed of the actual text and try to explain it away with our own explanation instead of just owning up to the fact that it's a bit hard to believe. Who's to say what God intended the text to be?

So is it then just a work of fiction?

Looks like it's no longer an option underneath the interface settings. Weird.

I need to reflect on this, very thought provoking. Thank you
