@BradWilcoxIFS Is this assuming that the friendship of marriage is filling the community void itself?
Or that marriage is providing broader social connections with the sharing of friends between the spouses?
Could very well be both I guess.
Another thought on this. To be immortally locked in moral depravity is the very definition of hell. The cherubim who guarded the way to the tree of life were extending grace to fallen humans.
@calvinrobinson Young men flocking to the teachings of individuals such as Nick Fuentes gives you hope?
You’re so mad at boomers that you’re endorsing some of the least Christlike voices in the arena.
The pendulum has swung far too wide. Time for young voices to say enough is enough.
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. This is the risk of dehumanization: building a future that excludes God and reduces the other to a means.
My friend and I used to play the Heroes vs Villains mode on this map all the time on my PS2 growing up.
Such incredible memories. 2005's Battlefront II will always be one of the greatest Star Wars games ever made.
“A man can certainly get stuck in the past. He can brood uselessly. He can ruminate and thereby exacerbate his own traumas. But he can also refuse interiority because he does not want judgment or accountability. He can remain in motion because motion keeps harder questions at bay.” @Tomberly530
Fwiw, @BenSasse is imo not living simply like a guy who knows he's going to die.
He's living like a guy who knows he's going to be resurrected. #FarAsTheCurseIsFound
What happens when all "interstitial time" (the bits of time between other things) goes to your phone and you no longer just think, or look out a window?
Christine Rosen shows what we lose, drawing from her recent book:

As you begin this day, know that there is nothing you can do today to make Jesus love you less, or to make him love you more. Perfectly loved, that is where you stand with God.
@NatHalberstadt The hyper-fixation of “quiet time” in the Protestant tradition has caused maybe more harm than good — often leaving people guilty for not checking off their 15 minutes of Bible reading from their to do list
Catholicism teaches you can meet God elsewhere (I’m Protestant btw)
