@VirtudMental I had to do a double take bc this guy is @RealMattFradd ‘s doppelgänger.

El peso muerto más gay que jamás experimentarás:

@usuallypregnant There are exceptions to this rule, but generally, yes.

Ladies, less is more

@philthatremains Always remember: Every bullet has a lawyer attached to it. Call the cops and let them deal with this. If they break in then the scales tip the other way.

some people are talking like this is a situation in which you would need a gun. it is not. this is a situation in which you call 911 and stay inside. if he breaks in, then you use a gun. NEVER go outside and confront a crazy person.

@usuallypregnant Of course. But at some point you have to trust a person who is going to make decisions. And second opinions do get expensive after awhile. There’s a balance that must be struck between personal autonomy and faith in medicine. Each person can decide where that balance is.

Do you agree?

@InternetH0F I always wished they’d have put subtitles for him.

Did you know? Chewbacca spoke English on set.

@Catholic_Piper Three bowls minimum for a proper evaluation😉

Tonight's pipe. Tin was new and is a little rough around the edges. Had 3 bowls of this to be sure. Will need to spend some time in the cellar.

@BasilTheGreat “The jury came to a unanimous verdict of ‘Guilty’.”

If someone does something like this you should have every right to use whatever means necessary to defend your home and your family If a mentally unstable man at your door mentions your daughter, you do not take chances

@CatholicQuote12 Our choir has done this piece by Palestrina a few times. Here’s the full motet: youtu.be/0yd5EE0hAB8

@Matt_Pinner Pucker

What would you call this “piece of art”?

@mark_slapinski Stuff like this keeps up I’m going to lose interest in X as a Breaking News source.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly going PSYCHOTIC, lashing out at aides and everyone around him. He knows something BIG is coming.

@usuallypregnant We didn’t wait too long, so no. If anything we got some mush about delaying kids and “getting to know each other”. None of our friends followed that advice, and they’re all still married. 25 years and counting.

Did your parents ever ask you if/when they could expect grandchildren?

@DHiddenness @PaulinusOfTrier And many Popes and Bishops were decadent throughout history. Yet their office remains, and our doctrine perseveres. I believe Amoris Lætitia will be one of those near misses once the dust has settled.

@DHiddenness @PaulinusOfTrier Of course. We would agree “Indefectibility” is different than “Perfect clarity” when it comes to proclaiming doctrine.

How many Catholics who go to the modern Mass are aware that the absolution has been removed?

@StochasticUltra @DHiddenness @PaulinusOfTrier Who said he was a hero? And his exile to Tehran can’t be used to tar every action Bugnini ever made. That’s intellectual dishonesty.

@Catholic_Ham @DHiddenness @PaulinusOfTrier Right. Bugnini was a hero. That's why P6 sent him to Tehran

@PaulinusOfTrier Same goes the other way. People don’t start falling away from the faith just because of the New Mass. A change in ritual does not force a change in the faith itself. Ppl still need to be taught the faith.

@Catholic_Ham Yeah right, people started rushing to confession thanks to the new Mass.

@StochasticUltra @PaulinusOfTrier I guess everyone didn’t have your particular English missal around the world.

@Catholic_Ham @PaulinusOfTrier Says right in my missal that it absolves venial sins

@Miss_Oggy_Noir @lv715 @HalfwayPost Pretty thin argument when that canon is extremely vague and Carrie’s with it many stipulations for deployment of the penalty of excommunication .

@Catholic_Ham @lv715 @HalfwayPost Canon 1399

BREAKING: The Vatican crowd at St. Peter's Square reportedly chanted, "Excommunicate Vance!" for 25 minutes this morning.

@megbasham The Trump issue aside, it would be interesting to hear your journey to stop taking birth control. My wife and I never used it either.

I have never felt a single bit of animus toward Catholics in my life. In fact, most of the time, I have felt really grateful for y’all because, doctrinally, you have held the line on the most important political issues to me, like abortion and marriage, better than many Protestant denominations. Within this first six months of getting married, I quit taking birth control because of literature a Catholic friend gave me, even though I was a Protestant. But I am telling you all, you don’t realize how the Pope’s actions and the Vatican actions more broadly are being read by Protestants. When it’s a matter of abortion, it’s generic statements directed at no one in particular. When it’s foreign policy, it’s extremely pointed and aimed directly at the United States and specifically Trump.

@Miss_Oggy_Noir @lv715 @HalfwayPost And what about those Catholics that formally cooperate in the grave moral evil of procuring an abortion? Something Canon Law explicitly states is grounds for excommunication (can. 1398)?

@Catholic_Ham @lv715 @HalfwayPost He could be tried for formal cooperation in grave moral evil under just war doctrine. Pope Leo has already declared the war unjust.
