@Bug_Hall If ever you want someone to timber frame anything on your place, me and a bunch of other men do that for a living here in AR. Definitely one of the best ways for people to actually use their own land is stone and timber.

@luciaalife @jonshammer This scene is about the Japanese martyrs. He was crucified by the pagan Japanese authorities, in mockery of his Catholic faith, not by other Christians.

I think that the gun sphere has definitely shifted to be more “Christian” and more pro God. It is a counter culture right now with the world around us, and a lot of people realize that there’s an issue with the world and those that embrace it and don’t know where to go.

I love my faith and I love The Church, and if anybody is curious about why I have faith or why I’m Catholic and not Protestant or Orthodox, please DM me and I’m happy to talk about it.

@AudeleyEleanor @ChivalryGuild I believe that is correct. Seems this is a universally understood concept.

@Sola_Requiem We just went to a monastery and stayed in a guest house for not too much then went to town for a nice dinner a couple times.

«When an organic culture is destroyed, there may be a brief period of euphoric liberation, but something always fills the void, and in the Church’s case, as much as in American culture more broadly, a centralized bureaucracy was the real long-term result of the Council. The average parish, after the Council, shifted from an organic community under a pastor to “a sprawling network of councils and staff.”...

Liberalism, while promising liberation to everyone against a tyrannical hierarchical past, in the end, empowered the bureaucracy over a now atomized laity in a way more authoritarian and micromanaging than the old pastors or Church hierarchy ever could have imagined. This is not necessarily a conspiracy, but a mere fact of entropy. If something that was formerly held up by culture has to get done, the most effective way is to hire someone to do it. And the way that sounds best in the abstract, of course, is to hire an expert, to replace organic practice of the faith with an artificial institutional simulacrum as grassroots confraternities are replaced by involvement ministry coordinators, religious sisters with R.E. coordinators, the authority of a pastor with that of a parish and finance councils, local charity work with national 501(c)(3)s, etc....

In a way, bureaucratization and centralization are the end state of every revolution, as all idealism must eventually make accommodations with reality that often entail going back to certain parts of the status quo. But it’s particularly ironic in this case, as the Church has wound up in a state, in the end, that was the opposite in many ways of what the Council Fathers, utopian as they were, had wanted—[now] more centralized, more bureaucratic, more red tape, more authoritarian, less flexible, more imbued by the practices of the world, but less ready or capable to go out and sanctify the world....

The turbulence and chaos within the Church came from an abnegation of authority, a revolution of selfishness, and the institutional bureaucratization that has—rather poorly—filled the gap.»

@Catholicizm1 My wife, who ho has suffered infertility for the duration of our marriage, once went to a gynecologist to ask for help getting pregnant, and the nurse asked her after explaining everything if she wanted to get on birth control.

@Tironianae Aaron goes to my parish. God bless him, great guy.

@de_la_paz_owo Oh hey, I know Fr. Aaron. I came into the churche in his diocese.

@JoePostingg Because the child has a life “in potentio”. The argument of potentiality is how St. Thomas, St. Augustine, Aristotle, etc defended against this barbarity.

@k155b01 @MinModulation @GayOPersona_NY Sodom and Gomorrah was about sodomy/homosexuality, no honest historian or scholar believe that it was about anything but that.
