    Ukraine Crisis

    Why would you say such a nasty thing? Judging your siblings. Don't you believe that they are doing their able best, just like you are? And if not, then inform us, why? How do you know, what error are they making, what should they do instead? And here is where your dialect needs work...

    Beloved57 are you sure you’re chosen?

    It's up to you, if you're not Catholic. Or, if you're asking what it means to Catholicism, see our Catechism. It's pretty deep but it 'boils down to' go to Mass and attempt to achieve and maintain a "state of grace" which has nothing to do with salvation but instead it has to do with being...

    Ukraine Crisis

    You do know that in Catholicism celibacy means avoiding any emission evoked or effected by a male's informed consent, right? I don't want to use that M word it's creepy. Celibacy means no M word. You know that, right?

    Beloved57 are you sure you’re chosen?

    I just want to . . . point out, that when I summarize the Gospel as one simple sentence, I say "Believe in Jesus", as evidenced earlier in this thread. That is to say, I don't use Romans 10:9. And this is in my determination Catholicism's answer to the question as well. Believe in Christ...

    Hooray For Pedophilia!

    It doesn't matter. What's the point in even asking? What support does it lend to your position? How come you don't know this?

    Ukraine Crisis

    How about taking control of your dopamine system instead of just letting it lead you around by a leash? Which? Celibacy? or what I said?

    Ukraine Crisis

    Moral superiority is true. It exists. We agree on this, you just call it law and I call it right. The issues wind up being interrelated so the question is, how do we decide? It's an ethical question in the highest sense. How do we distinguish ethics from morals, or 'vice versa'? There is a...

    Ukraine Crisis

    I support and promote Catholic morals, we value chastity and celibacy as virtues and we disapprove of immorality which directly impinges chastity and celibacy.

    You definitely should heed your doctor's orders. Yeah, it definitely sounds like you were able to avoid aggravating injuries so that they could heal up for you. Nice.

    Why didn't Jesus want His disciples to make Him known before the 'DBR' ?

    Good stuff! Especially referencing Namaan . . . Look at Luke 4:25 " . . . I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; 26 But unto none of them was Elias sent...

    How does one determine, using the scientific method, that the earth is billions of years old?

    That is exactly why I consider ethics to be the discipline which includes philosophy (and all the other disciplines too) in it. Ethics is always about what we're going to do, and not only what we are going to say or think.

    Sorry to hear that man. Definitely talk to your doctor. Ask your doctor how, given your condition, you can safely work with the most weight possible. You've got to engage those large muscle groups, for your health, if at all possible, somehow. After the deadlift and squat, the next exercises...

    Ukraine Crisis

    Seems like the Russians expected the Ukrainians to surrender quickly and they didn't at all. So now they're like, "Now what?"
