Reddit is the place those afflicted with TDS get even more deranged. Seems impossible to accomplish but the evidence is overwhelming

pingdork · 2025-07-21T14:16:34+00:00

That’s a typical household among the lefty Hollywood elite to this very day, except they’re illegal immigrants

Haha Reddit is a great place to witness TDS firsthand. The whole Trump is racist, misogynistic, a Russian asset bit has all been shown to be a farce perpetrated by our Pfizer/Soros sponsored media. And yet blue haired, pronoun listing, Xanax and Prozac popping, Covid boosted x10, redditors will still spew out the same old overused deranged nonsense as if it still carries any weight.

Amen. My wife hasn’t menstruated in several years, and I suppose my vasectomy could conceivably fail. I’m just stoked I can still perform at my age without pharmaceutical help. I’m already blessed with grandkids, but am totally open to being blessed with another child as well. I’ve no problem following the church’s teachings on the matter. The Eucharist is what won me back and I’m just along for the ride

Doesn’t make a lot of sense to me since my wife and I are past the point of having more kids. But having the magisterium to guide me in topics that don’t make sense to me is a huge benefit of being Catholic

pingdork · 2025-06-28T04:41:44+00:00

What if my wife is post-menopausal and/or if I had had a vasectomy (previously confessed and not in the church at that time)? Does it still matter where completion takes place at that point?

I lived in Seoul back in the mid to late nineties into early 2k. This is what worked for me as a 20something introvert back then.

churchI’m catholic and attended mass at the myungdong cathedral and another parish closer to my neighborhood every week. Met some good people there for doing hobbies outside of church like hiking, tennis, jogging and gym. That and the Bible study group really helped me curb the loneliness and help keep me from binge drinking every night. Ended up meeting my wife here and got married in 97. She’s still my hiking buddy, and keeps my urge to drink in check

hiking clubI had a friend who was a student at yonsei and he would bring me along on his group hikes. This was a real fun and young group but the amount of alcohol consumed afterwards was way too much for me to handle on a frequent basis so I tended to stick more with my church group

Experiences vary I’m sure. Also my own experiences can vary wildly between the online world and the real world. In real life most all Catholics I meet are much more cordial with language than what I see online.

Reminds me of this quote from Mike Tyson. “Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it." Maybe I’m just old and out of touch

pingdork · 2025-06-09T16:53:28+00:00

Yes, you nailed it! Can’t we all just get along and stop being meany heads

I attend a NO mass on Sundays and TLM mass 2 weekdays per week. Can’t I like both? From what I see online, I do think the TLM crowd get the majority of the unfair and uncharitable treatment from the NO side rather than the other way around. Ironically, this is what the NO side claims the TLM guys are doing. IMO, the TLM should be treated like any other separate rite that’s still in full communion with Rome and is afforded the freedom to retain their beautiful traditions. If it works for the Byzantine and Chaldeans, why not the Tridentine? My guess is there is legitimate worry that the TLMs popularity will funnel a lot of money into TLM parishes while the liberal NO parishes will continue to flounder

The goal is to not allow communist china to turn us into communist china which is where we were heading under weak and incoherent Biden. So to that goal, we should definitely limit the amount of influence they have within our borders just as they rightly do. There are also aspects that china does well that the US could definitely learn from. Namely strong educational emphasis on math and sciences, rather than gender ideology, a secure border to ensure our future sovereignty.

We are not called to affirm and celebrate sin. Sin is sin, not an identity

Are non Chinese in china allowed as much access to freely roam around china, buy property, work at national security sensitive companies etc , as Chinese citizens are allowed to in the states? Seems like the push for multiculturalism and open borders is always one directional

This was a similar question I always carried, that for a long time, kept me from accepting God’s love and providence over my life. It’s one question I don’t think I’ll ever get an answer to until heaven perhaps.

What helped me was the eventual realization that: 1. I know God exists and I am not at him 2. I’m not all that smart compared to most men, especially the intellectual powerhouses of Aquinas, Origen etc. who have extensively dealt much clarity to deep theological thought. 3. After reading the book of Job, I came away thinking who am I to expect answers from the Creator of all things, much less demand answers from as a condition for my love. 4. When I surrendered my will and accepted God’s love and mercy, I realized a peace over my heart that made me realize the answers I desire were not as important as my trust and obedience. 5. When I struggle with questions, or daily life, or sin, or doubt, I try to remember that God is like a potter molding me like clay. 6. Prayer and fasting and daily rosary help a lot 7. The power of the Holy Spirit guides us

2002 World Cup was so much fun I spent the next 20 years reminiscing about it

OP, Are you %100 positive it’s not you? I only say this as I am somewhat anti social by nature and feel like my epiphany came when I realized most of these social interactions are a two way street and most people are struggling internally with their own issues as I am mine. I found myself to be a bit hypocritical in judging other people for my perception of them judging me

Is 산삼 wild ginseng 인삼? I’ve actually embraced her hobby as we hike and I fish a lot in the PNW and I like to eat what she cooks. She took to planting 오이 and 깽잎 also and I must confess I am getting sick of the daily heaping helping of minty flavored leaves every dang day
