@elyawda For an action to be a sin, you must be fully aware that you are sinning, and completely willing to sin.

Feel free to go to confession, if it makes you feel better, but the priest will tell you that you committed no sin.

@gerrylynch I think bagpipes or similar instruments are common to any culture that practices animal husbandry.
Basically you have bagpipes where you have goats or sheep.

@weinerdowg No, we humans are a "fetus first" species: in order to protect the unborn, the maternal body will destroy its own muscles, bones, brain, teeth, organs to feed the fetus. There's no scenario in which a woman could starve the fetus without killing herself in the process.

@nickimoraa Yes, when they turn 11.

@mattswaim The Catholic church celebrates Easter on the first Sunday after the first full moon of spring, which means that every year the date changes, but it's never going to be earlier than March the 25th, or later than April 23rd.
This year it's going to be April the 5th.

@_perfectmips In Italy it's forbidden to name a child "Gesù" or "Cristo", but "Emanuele" and "Salvatore" ( which means "saviour") are very common male names.

@FatherChrisVor1 @Catholicizm1 Linguist here.

"aloud" as in "with powerful voice", "yelling"?
Or "aloud" as in "not secretly", "not in the priest's mind"?

If it's the second one, sign language with visible hands is definitely valid.
If it's the first one...how loud must a consecration be to be valid?

@chicfryrice @BUnderTheWoods Hi Lisa, I am really sorry for your loss.

In my experience, it doesn't really get easier...but one day you'll find yourself in a place where the joy and gratitude for what you had will be bigger and stronger than the pain for what you have lost.

I wish you peace.

@FlanaganOnFaith In my former parish both boys and girls from 6 to 14 yo were encouraged to be "altar servers".
Boys wore the traditional black and white, priest-like attire.
Girls wore a light blue robe with a Marian "M" embroidered on the front.
After the age of 14, only boys could serve Mass.

@FlanaganOnFaith I don't think the instrument is the issue. The song might be, but the instrument per se is not.

A simple guitar melody that supports singing can be very tasteful and respectful.

Mass is not the place for rock bands or pop songs.

What's the legal marriage age in the USA?

[Brianna Wu @BriannaWu]

1 in 5 Palestinian marriages are to children under 18, some as young as 12 or 13.

A girl who’s 12 or 13 should be playing, learning, and figuring out who she is, not being forced into marriage and childbirth.

No, it's the genocide! It's the f*cling genocide!
Trump supporters never cared about brown lives, many democrats did.
And they couldn't bring themselves to vote, because the lesser evil is...just evil.

Is it that Harris is a woman?

Is the misogyny that deep in America?

@mervin985 @nikmarino9 @DaniSbrollini Ma solo per i bambini dai 5 ai 18 anni...credo che questa misura sia pensata diversamente.

@kittesencul Nel paese dei miei nonni, provincia di Imperia, c'è una spiaggia "libera attrezzata": ombrelloni, lettini, wc, doccia (fredda), bagnino dalle 9 alle 19 gratis.

Poi bar, dato in concessione ad un' associazione locale, con consumazioni ovviamente a pagamento.
