@thelb236 While I agree, and will even say it MAY have been founded with the best of intentions, it did quickly devolve into a state of schism, then heresy. Today it is a free-for-all with no guardrails which is why any Catholic should stay away.

This is a lie. The SSPX was founded with full canonical approval by the proper authorities in the Church. No one should take this sycophantic account seriously. Ever. They are ignorant of so many fundamentals of both history and how Catholicism actually works.

@Raine2285 @BreeSolstad Just stick with the Traditional Latin Mass and you'll be safe from all this insanity. The Church is undergoing a major crisis in these times, but it will survive. The Orthodox Churches are not the answer. You'll find similar modern nonsense, to varying degrees.

Have truly been exploring joining the Catholic Church. Praying the rosary, studying early Church fathers. Scheduled to start classes. But this nonsense and the Pope embracing gays, the Anglican Church, priest, hosting LGBT events, blessing mosque, has me rethinking it. The Orthodox Church may be the last Hope.

This happened during the Mass yesterday. 🤦‍♀️ Note the one family that bent the knee to Christ and got the heck out of there. 🙌

@hell_line0 So you're saying if cryogenic pods are invented some day that can keep an adult alive...... They won't be considered persons anymore?

putting a baby in a freezer would kill it,... butt freezing embryos keeps them alive. That's why an embryo isn't a baby. Hope that helps...

@thegfunk126 @bankertobuilder @RogerThat1961 Any curb not meant to be driven over, shouldn't be placed in the middle of my path through the intersection. As a tax payer I own the road and so I get the right to drive straight.

@skumWgmi You are not burning $12 in gas to mow 1 lawn. But your point stands.

I quoted a boomer $40 to mow his lawn, edge it, and bag the clippings. He laughed and offered $12 "like the neighbor kid used to charge." The neighbor kid charged that in 1994. Gas alone for the mower costs more than that now. He hired someone else. They quit after one mow. He's still looking. Boomers need to go.

@Mark_Wilson_ @0xDavecryps It's just failing small businesses. Even the most dirt-cheap fast food chains pay at least a couple bucks more than minimum.

Housing costs have climbed so fast that the average U.S. apartment now rents for around $2,100 a month. Meanwhile, someone working full-time at the federal minimum wage earns only about $1,300 a month after taxes, depending on their situation. That leaves an $800 gap before paying for groceries, electricity, transportation, insurance, or a single unexpected bill. This isn’t about skipping coffee or making a better budget. No budgeting strategy can fix an income that doesn’t even cover the roof over your head. The federal minimum wage has been frozen since 2009, while rents have surged over the years. When the cost of simply existing rises faster than paychecks, people aren’t failing the system. The system is failing them. Until wages begin to reflect today’s cost of living, relying on one hourly paycheck alone is becoming less of a choice and more of a financial risk. For millions of Americans, finding additional sources of income isn’t about getting rich. It’s about staying afloat.

@0xDavecryps Why would the minimum wage need to pay for an average apartment? How about a minimum apartment?

@lukei4655 Very true. We should definitely avoid using the terms Ordinary Form and Extraordinary Form. We should call them Old Mass and New Mass, or Traditional Mass and Novus Ordo.

Fr. Gabriel T Mosher, OP
Offered the EF of the Roman Rite yesterday. It had been a while (I usually offer the OP Rite for trad liturgy). It got me thinking again about how there are actually more substantial liturgical changes between the EF and the OF than between the EF and the OP rite. I think that the OF should probably be considered a different rite instead of merely a different form of the Roman Rite.

No, you got that wrong. They NEVER said they're holding onto it and will pay it back to you. They said they'd pool everyone's money and redistribute it. It's socialism, just like the name would suggest. If you don't get back what you paid in, that's by design. Someone who paid in nothing is getting a nice paycheck thanks to you.

Imagine being forced to give someone 6.2% of your paycheck, every single check, every month, for 30 to 50 years of your life. And that person said, "Don't worry, I'm holding this for you and will pay it back to you on a monthly basis, when you retire at 65." And then they said, "Nah, just kidding. I meant when you retire at 67. And at that time, I'll only give you 70% of what you paid me." And then they said, "Oops, I spent all your money. You're out of luck." That's the U.S. government.

@GraduatedBen This is literally true. Cancers appear in your body all the time, and are successfully defeated by your immune system. When someone is diagnosed with cancer, it just means it's a cancer that their immune system did not fight off.

@BamaSaltyMarine They didn't go anywhere. They never existed. Three groups of a thousand people? That's 3000. Two groups of a thousand? That's 2000. One group of a thousand? It's 1000. No groups of a thousand? It's 0.

Mathematics is the only subject I sill can't understand. How can 1000 people multiplied by zero, be zero people. Where did the 1000 people go?

Yep. Alcohol is fine in limited amounts, but the moment it takes away your right reason, your ability to think straight, it's a sin. But only if it's done on purpose. It was okay to drink a bunch of liquor as a crude anesthetic during an amputation back in old times, for example. You would get absolutely hammered, but it wasn't the drunkenness that was the goal, but instead the pain-numbing effect. Principle of double effect. You can do a neutral action even if it results in something evil, as long as it also results in something good. The good has to outweigh the evil and the evil cannot be what leads to the good.

@SunnyDfan4eva @ReubenR80027912 The general term is "anosmia". I have it in regard to stink bugs. I do not smell it AT ALL when I squish one. If I do it near a group of people I wil get quite a reaction even if they didn't see me do the deed.

@TXJennyAgain @PaulinusOfTrier A sedevacanantist shouldn't want to attend an SSPX Mass though, right? It's a serious offense to offer Mass while mentioning a false bishop's and false Pope's names in the Canon. Lefebvre considered sedevacantism very seriously, but came to the conclusion it doesn't make sense.

Sedevacantists don't believe popes must be impeccable but that they mayn't be heretics. Around 2010 there was a crackdown (or more like some lecturing) against sedevacantism at SSPX chapels. That didn't change individual beliefs, it just made persons more careful & quiet. You likely know quite a few sedes but miss them for their discretion.

There are a number of pro-SSPX groups on various platforms . Not infrequently there are comments of a sedevacantist nature, which are of course inappropriate because the SSPX are not sedevacantists. The disturbing thing is that, if one looks closely at these accounts, it becomes quite obvious that they are trolls. It is possible that these troll accounts are an attempt by sedevacantists to encourage SSPX adherents to join their cause. However I think it much more likely that this is an attempt by pro-conciliarists to tar the SSPX with the brush of sedevacantism. It seems to be effective ; even serious commentators frequently refer to the SSPX in terms which imply they reject Leo as Pope.
