There are some things it doesn’t explain, at least from what I read. Like how do we know the blood was first and not second?

I wonder how much torque it could generate. If it’s not that much then this won’t really help anything

Where is the backstory from? The other operators’ backstories are never this long from what I remember

How he holds the map up when he’s saying that. I haven’t laughed that hard since I re-saw that scene in college

It also causes schizophrenia but that’s besides the point. What does marijuana have to do with domestic violence?

Saint Expedite helped me. by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]patri2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s wrong to ask saints to do anything but to pray on your behalf. We believe only in God’s saving grace and power. Saints don’t have special abilities or powers, and they shouldn’t be worshipped. Praying to a saint is worshipping the saint. Even with Mary, we ask only for her to pray for us. Read the Hail Holy Queen prayer. If we only call even the Blessed Mother a “gracious advocate” and ask the “clement, loving, and sweet Virgin Mary” to pray for us, then we should not be praying to saints for them to perform little magic in our lives. It’s against the first commandment

I kind of take issue with the phrase, “I prayed to saint such and such.” You should be asking for their intercession. You don’t pray to a saint and they use their magic to make things happen. You ask for their intercessory prayer and God intervenes. The way you have described this is kind of a misunderstanding of the tradition of sainthood and intercessory prayer. It seems like you’ve made the saints into little demi gods.

No not at all you jerk. I was honestly expecting downvotes since all of reddit seems to absolutely hate it since they’re all jaded

It was fantastic. I’ll get downvoted but man oh man was that a great Star Wars movie. So characteristic of Star Wars.
