If you talk to any old priest who's actually been in the game forty years they're like yes the devil is real and he prefers intelligent people, don't pray when you're angry it opens the wrong door, some saints were terrifying in person and not in a good way, certain prayers work at certain times of night and we don't know why, and never let a possessed person know you're afraid
@Michael91701642 City of God, Book 13. Basically Original Sin is transmitted through the seed of the father at conception (which is why Christ is without Original Sin, since He had a seedless conception)
My man said something to me that really stuck.
He told me, “I’m not actually here to control you. I’m not your dad, I’m your partner. You’re free to make your own choices. Just understand that every choice has consequences. If you choose something that damages what we’ve built, that’s on you.”
He said, “I’ll always tell you when something hurts me or crosses a boundary, because that’s what healthy communication looks like. But if you keep stepping over the line after I’ve shown you where it is, then you were never really protecting us to begin with.”
And honestly, that’s what accountability in a relationship sounds like.
