Kazak_Hstan posted:I feel really lucky I have never had a pastor like that. I've certainly had a few who have made a point of emphasizing the catechism in its fullness, sometimes without couching it as an invitation to perfection none of us are actually capable of fulfilling and blah blah. But never have I had a pastor who dismissed someone walking out as if it meant they won a purity contest. well as we have seen in the parable of the 99 sheep jesus said, "lol bet that sheep wasn't even a real christian lmao seeya binch" e: my diocesan podcast is just a bunch of boring dweebs

My old pastor from Juneau has a bunch of his homilies recorded online, which is kind of like a podcast. I listen to them sometimes because he was just very very good. But he died in 2015, so there are no new ones.

"A decent Catholic homily is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field." --the bible, I guess

when I had an ant farm as a kid I didn't realize you are supposed to, like, purchase a queen or something so that they would all be nice and happy and form a colony inside the ant farm instead I scraped a bunch of ants off of a tree outside and tossed them in there, whereupon they made it their sole purpose in life to try to get the hell out of that ant farm. there was plenty of food for them there but they just ignored it because they wanted to get out, so they all starved to death clasping the cage screen. much like transhumanist bloggers

Went to the "Hamad Khalifa Civilization Centre" today, which is Copenhagens first great mosque. I gotta say, that is one of the pimpest temples I've ever seen. It had three kinds of toilets(?), fitness centres, a movie theatre, and, get this, a soundproofed kids room where they could throw down during prayer without distracting their moms.

Guys I know I like to play up the unkempt savage thing, but I know a lot about islam and this was my tenth visit to a mosque. Of course I did not poo poo in the wudu  No, the guide explained this way: they had a sage over from somewhere in the far east, and he didn't consider their toilets proper, so out of respect for the muliticulturalism inherent in Islam they got the hole in the ground kind added to the ones they already had.

Denver Seminary shits out a bunch of wacko Evangelicals too so I assume it's just Denver.

pidan posted:https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/11/making-thoughts-and-prayers-count/545144/ as someone who studies religion as a source for social change i don't disagree with the sentiment of this article, though i wonder if the religiosity of conservative republicans is open to these sorts of rebukes. often it seems the religion of conservatives seeks a sort of "apolitical" salvation of souls, especially those who believe in sola fide salvation, one that doesn't seek to address the wrongs of this world at all. while this "apolitical" religion is in fact political, especially because it often is used to justify the discrimination of lgbt people, the sort of white conservative christians who make up the bulk of republican politicians are unlikely to recognize it as such. their response to being asked what sort of fruit their vine is producing would be to condemn the politicizing of religion, and if they have a long enough memory to remember the short lived outrage at liberation theology when obama was elected they'd point to that and condemn any such requests that their prayer have fruit as communist propaganda. at the end of the day asking legislators to be legislators and "naming and shaming" them for receiving donations from the NRA doesn't do much to promote sane gun control in this country, but i doubt the proposed method of appealing to religion's capacity for social change would have much of an effect either. you can't shame someone into growing a conscience. you need a conscience to feel shame

pidan posted:https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/11/making-thoughts-and-prayers-count/545144/ I tend to agree with James Martin’s take, which is thinking is good if youre actually thinking about how to make things better, and praying is good if youre actually praying. I dont think people would respond poorly to ‘thoughts and prayers’ if it wasnt so clearly a throwaway copout. If Paul Ryan like, spent a day in fasting and prayer over the murder of 26 people, it would probably be appreciated. Instead it’s thoughts and prayers, *fart*, welp how bout some tax cuts. I don’t really think validating the inch-deep piousness of the right is going to do anything.

HEY GUNS posted:After George Michael died, I learned that he'd given a lot of money away but in secret. That's the way to act, imo. When I was in college I used to use sleight of hand techniques to put money in the collection basket without being noticed. (I know I am a massive nerd.) One of the priests either asked me about it or something but one of them found out and told me that as an underclassman people seeing me give was more important.
