@robdezendorf This dude is shitposting, it’s just raw game footage

@cbME109 @Sacredcynic @moriah_bridges Your church is fractured into thousands of pieces and can’t agree on a single doctrinal statement. The doctrine you do have has zero continuity with the first 15 centuries since Pentecost.

Your church is alien. I’m sticking with the church of the apostles.

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@cbME109 @Sacredcynic @moriah_bridges This kind of youthful arrogance drove me up the wall, and is a big reason I converted to Catholicism.

@geilokowsk14194 @poperespecter1 @PussyBlaster10k @djneyoru I remember hiding behind a bush to say these words when I was 6 years old.

He’ll be there for you when you most need him, if you reach for him.

@McJuggerNuggets My only consolation to this murderous tragedy is that there is one who loves the child when his parents didn’t

“Even if my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will take me in.”

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@eboh_sam @EricRSammons As a Protestant convert, that this has to be said to Catholics is mind boggling to me.

The Muslims called us “the people of the book” for over a thousand years.

@ChudThomist Calling Gregory of Nyssa and Maximus the Confessor (for starters) lax is probably not the angle you want.

@M3_CLPY @Pontifex “…teaching them to obey everything I’ve commanded.” - Jesus, Mt 28

“I have not shrunk to declare to you the whole counsel of God” Paul, Ac 20

@Catholicizm1 Probably the worst possible example you could bring up to demonstrate.

I love the seal, but this is about as close as you can get to a need for breaking it.

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@dlongenecker1 It can’t speak authoritatively on much at all.

I was spiraling into all kinds of uncertainty. Campbell’s Romans commentary had me questioning if Romans 1-3 was even Paul’s teaching.

Scripture needs Tradition or else it’s rutterless in a sea of interpretation.

@InternetNewsAg2 @Pontifex Thy will be done,

[Pope Crave @ClubConcrave]

"We must, then, avoid the 'Babel syndrome,' namely the idolatry of profit that sacrifices the weak, a uniformity that neutralizes differences, and the pretense that a single language — even a digital one — can translate everything, including the mystery of the person, into data and performance."

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@DSDOConnor I don’t know what you’re reading here because it clearly says that he’s simply in favor of maintaining the dignity of work, not rejecting UBI altogether. Other places he seems to be in favor of UBI.

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@Valuable @jack Bro, you’re intelligent and savvy enough to pickup Irenaeus and Maximus and Athanasius and test them against Paul. The apostolic churches are crafted atop the doctrine of theosis. Give it a proper test, as I did, and your faith will be greatly benefitted.

[Kern @Kern_Alan]

@Valuable @jack It’s the doctrine of theosis / divinification. Fuller treatment goes back to Maximus and to Athanasius and to Irenaeus and through to Paul. The whole point of the Transfiguration.

Steel man positions first before hastily jumping to accusation. It’s better for your soul.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

As evidenced by the unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity, we are truly experiencing an eclipse of the sense of what it means to be human. It is imperative to recover an understanding of the true meaning and grandeur of humanity as intended by God. It is in this sense that the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological, and it is my hope that the Encyclical Letter to be published within a few days will contribute to answering this challenge.

@__I_l_l__l @mweinbach Same, though my monarch mcp doesn’t work. I find the native model to be more than sufficient.

@nicdunz Opus 4.7 did better on these EQ questions, as usual
