Catholic Convert. Ave Christus Rex. I feel like Gen Z, look like Gen X.

Sola Scriptura means your opinion against mine. There’s no way Christ would have set it up like that. The Church is real.

Christians didn’t get ghosted.

Exactly. And if He didn't do that -- what on earth could He have meant by it? If He didn't give us the Church (a real Church), he effectively "ghosted" humanity, which would be ridiculous.

It's true, the "Bible alone" mentality yields a particularly insane kind of Christology. Like God became Man, divinely inspired a Canon of Scriptures that wouldn't even be fully written for a century after His time nor assembled into a Canon for ~300 years, and then said: "OK, I'm done talking now, and done with miracles, just figure it out. And because I'm omniscient I know all of you are gonna disagree, but since I definitely didn't give you any tools to prevent that, you're just gonna have to figure this one out on your own. Also: basically everyone who follows me for the first 1,500+ years is gonna get it wrong, so don't look to them for help." This is a fundamentally insane idea of who Christ is. It also situates the individual believer in a kind of "choose-your-own-adventure" game in which he is always winning, obtaining esoteric knowledge about God, etc.

Do people really “become Protestant” after being Catholic?
Last night I met a group of converts. All of their stories had the same basic shape: 1. I was Protestant 2. I learned about history 3. I became Catholic Now I wonder about the stories in the other direction: 1. I was Catholic 2. ??? 3. I became Protestant

Is this true? (re: abortion)

Whether the mom knows it or not, her child is accepted as a satanic sacrifice. God have Mercy on us.

An interesting thing about the midwit meme is that the guy on the left and the guy on the right both believe they are on the left. But the guy in the middle believes he’s on the right.

Becoming Catholic was the single best decision I've made in my life.

In the 20th century, society expanded rights without any corresponding expansion of responsibilities. Undoing the damage will require responsibilities to be emphasized over rights.

“All the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put Humpty together again.” This might be different?

Winning.
This is why we do this. Not for likes. Not for money. Not to win internet debates. Someone who spent two years wrestling with the Catholic Church is now in OCIA, coming to see the truth of what the Church teaches. Sometimes the post someone hates today is the post they remember when they start looking for answers tomorrow. Do not stop planting the seeds and telling the truth. God will do the rest. All glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The abortion debate is rigged because only the survivors get a vote. We need a 100-year moratorium on abortion, then a referendum including all those who would have been killed.

Female beauty is quite straightforward, but many women seem confused about it. 1. Don’t be fat 2. Live a life of virtue 3. Don’t accept beauty tips from liberals

Right now there are babies on the brink of being torn apart with metal tools, and they need someone to care about them.

Before the last century, “priority” was used in the singular. “Priorities” is a weasel word. Don’t lie, especially to yourself. One thing is the priority; the other is not.
