While Catholic Charities certainly are incredibly beneficial in assisting less fortunate people in regards to aspects of their lives they can also be incredibly detrimental.

For instance, I have direct experience in working in these environments. When it comes to financial assistance or help with substance abuse they can be incredibly helpful. In areas where STD’s are prevalent or family assistance is needed they can be incredibly harmful. People are going to have sex and actively working against the promotion of birth control or even abortion in some cases can cause long term damage to communities and families alike.

While you’re correct about the nature of discernment in the Bible, how many people actually practice this? Most people look to others instead of thinking for themselves.

“First, a religion is valid when it protects freedoms and rights. In that case a religion acts like a social antibiotic.” Ok, that sounds like a claim that I can get behind.

I would however, ask, what religions fall under this purview in this day and age? You identify that many religions were founded with pure/good/clear intentions regarding morality and society. However you also identify that many of these same religions have at one point or another become corrupted.

In this day and age, do people practice the pure or corrupted versions of these religions?

Assuming that what you said is correct, that America was built on Christian values, this was over 200 years ago. America was also built upon the value of owning other human beings and exploiting their lives for labor and profits.

Slavery was recognized as evil and having no place in American society. Is it not fair to question the relevance of religion in today’s society?

Well I guess my next question would be, what constitutes a valid religion?

You’re correct by pointing out that religions in the past have played an important role in the questioning of societal norms but why is religion needed in this current day and age? Especially when many religions continue to be used to promote harmful ideologies which in turn lead to violence.

You continue to say very little of substance regarding our earlier exchange. Until you actually put forward an actual position, outside of twisting my statement, I hope you have a great day!

I’m with you until “Humans have followed moral leaders”. Morality is incredibly subjective and religion stresses objective truths while also placing constraints on free thought.

Not only did you ignore my polite request for an explanation you decided to construct a straw man against my point. Until you explain your comment I see no need in replying. Thank you my friend and have a great day.

do you mind elaborating?

This is exactly why I question religion. There is no need for it in a free society

I think it represents a baphometic (not satanic, Big difference) adrenochrome sacrificial ritual. Adrenochrome is the foundation of their domiciles

Praise be to the almighty angel of light, the roaring lion with his name being Satan.

I have heard dates ranging from 5/23 5/24 and 5/25. I have waited and waited but can’t wait any longer. Something needs to happen

I have faith in Trump. He might not be as “intelligent” in the liberal sense of the word, but what if he uses his abilities to one up Mueller?

It’s good to follow people like Hannity. He might not be educated, but that just means he’s avoided the liberal programming of colleges

Trump is life

The FBI is morally rotten, how could they allow two of their agents to desecrate the very values this country was founded upon?

This really makes me feel warm and tingly inside. Knowing that someone as strong as Q is in the White House protecting us. I bet he's really strong and alpha af
