It's not an argument for or against anything other than it benefits a person to learn and understand history. It simply points out the glaring lack of historical perspective as it pertains to Christendom's early church beliefs and practices. Most American Protestant Christians have very little...

I need to start a protestant reaction video highlight reel with the following: Q: Jesus walked this earth when? A: 2000 years ago. Q: Right, and how old is Protestantism? A: About 500 years. Q: Right, so how did Christians practice/worship for the 1500 years prior? A: Crickets....

The bolded has been my experience as well. Even my own mom, when I said I was going through OCIA, had a hesitation within her words. She wanted to be supportive, but you could tell she was holding back. I made a comment in jest like, "It's not like I'm running off to join some pagan cult...

SIAP. I haven't been following the draft stuff much. The national title game took it out of me and I needed a break from everything. With that said, while watching the first round last night, I kept thinking how many players from Michigan, OSU, Bama, Georgia, and PSU went in the first round...

Morning offering, Fatima prayer, Act of Contrition, St Michael the Archangel, our family does Bless us Oh Lord before meals. Just off the top of my head...among others listed.

My parish does offer a lot of these small group gatherings, mens and womens Cursillo, other mens and womens retreats. They do a great job, to be fair. What I and others in my OCIA were pointing out, was the need derived from desire to learn more. Literal 100-, 200-, 300- level type courses we...

Thanks for this post. I'm officially Catholic, for what, 72 hours now. haha. And this is the type of information I love to learn. In my OCIA class, it was mentioned multiple times how most Catholics are very poorly catechized. This is especially true of "Cradle Catholics," who were born into...

Fair. Excuse the newb ignorance...but are you referring to the "t" traditions of these churches still in communion with Rome? Are the "T" Traditions still the same? The teachings, dogmas, doctrine, etc.

We had 77 enter our parish this past weekend. During OCIA, a large majority of them cited the Church's Traditions (T) and traditions (t) as being a large motivator in their conversion. Growing up evangelical, non-denominational, the Catholic Church's commitment to Sacred Tradition passed down...

Right. There won't be much, but if the need arises to help depressurize the room, I may put a small door louvre or wall register near the floor. Something that just allows the free flow of cool air to come in while the ceiling exhaust is pulling hot air out. I bought a wall mounted Navepoint...

Thanks. Yeah, I've looked into all of these options. The media rack will be inside a walk-in storage closet. At the moment, I'm on the fence about putting in a duct ventilation system now during framing, or waiting to see the actual temp in the room before ultimately retro-fitting a solution...

RIP Pope Francis

Not a bad idea. I got mine back from the shop and randomly enough, they said the system sort of "fixed itself." They didn't even charge me. No one knows what exactly happened, but they confirmed it was not working when I took it in and later in the day, they tried again after removing the...

Confirmed, first communion, marriage convalidation. Check, check, check. God is good!

I'm guessing that is what happened with mine. The fan got really loud one day, the PS5 got really hot, then it shut off. I let it cool down, moved things around, placed a new external computer fan inside the cabinet, turned it back on and it worked. Then a week later, it did it again, and...

Anyone have overheating issues with their PS5? We had ours stored horizontally in an open front cabinet with a computer cooling fan to circulate air and it just randomly turned off one day, felt very hot to the touch, and hasn't turned back on since. I took it to the local repair shop and...

I quit listening to Pete Sampson a couple years ago for this exact reason. His smug, know-it-all, arrogance was tolerable when he actually had decent info. Now, it's just a waste of time and energy.

100%. There are a handful of people I openly cheer against during the Masters. Reed is one. The fact that he won the year I went (and Tiger won the year after) really chaps my ass.
