St John’s University was the first university in Australia and predates the University of Sydney by 24 years.

I went to Oxford and for first time I faked not knowing English.

ohhh noooooooooooo

Oh for a simpler time when The Doctor fought Daleks with Spider-Man.

watched Solo for a second time finally.  liked it more the second time.  with Star Wars repeats, it is always about collecting more and more the first few watches so the third and fourth viewings will probably be even better.

 

if anyone has ever struggled with social anxiety before and had a hard time with public speaking, I recommend going to drug rehab.  you can guinea pig the shit out of it by focusing completely on yourself and how you share.  you could train yourself to be a monster of a public speaker!

Stay safe. I'm just missing this storm by a few days, so hopefully the damage isn't too severe when I'm up in Tallahassee on Sunday.

I was browsing the internet to try and find some place where you could discuss aspects of faith.

 

Apparently these are rules on the Christian Forums

"CF has taken the stand that marriage was established by God who created us male and female (Genesis 1:27-28). We regard marriage as a sacred institution that symbolizes the mysterious bond between Christ and His church (Ephesians 5:23-24, Ephesians 5:32). We believe that marriage is much more than a civil contract between two persons, it is a sacred joining together of a man and a woman into one flesh, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." (Genesis 2:21-25). Therefore, we only recognize heterosexual marriages here at CF. If you are in a same sex marriage you must select a marital status of either "Legal Union (Other)" or "Private" in your profile."
 

 

 

 

There's a statement of faith you must adhere to in order to participate in some of the forums

  Reveal hidden contents

There are forums reserved for Christian members only. Please do not post in these forums unless you are truly a Christian (please see our Statement of Faith to know exactly what that is). Unorthodox, non-Nicene Christian theology may only be discussed in the Controversial Theology forum.

 

You aren't allowed to state "promotion" of homosexuality (and their definition of promotion includes a statement of inclusion

 

You also aren't allowed to "promote" any other religion, so if you're a Christian who has a multiple paths to salvation route, you're not allowed to share that belief pretty much.  Also, satanists aren't allowed period lol (no idea how they enforce that).

 

You are not allowed to speculate about the end of the world

 

You are not allowed to talk about exorcising demons

 

If you're an unorthodox Christian (me) you are only allowed to discuss your views in the "Controversial Theology" forum, you aren't even allowed to discuss Gnosticism, or debate the authority of Paul (lol at them saying Paul but not like Jesus lol, maybe it's because Paul is the one who included the anti-homosexuality verses)

  Reveal hidden contents

Unorthodox Christian theology may only be discussed in the Controversial Christian Theology forum. These unorthodox topics do not directly oppose the Nicene Creed, but are not considered to be orthodox on CF. These unorthodox topics may not contradict the Nicene Creed. Non-Trinitarianism may only be discussed in the Outreach category forums. Gnosticism may not be discussed in any CF forums. 

 

 

I don't get the point of have an internet forum over a broad topic (Christianity) and then trying to apply strict rules over what people can discuss and how they represent themselves.  Truth shouldn't be afraid of investigation, yet most Christians seem to be incredibly scared of asking any questions about what they believe.

 

It's hard because many active Christians online  (and also in real life) have sadly adopted the idea that the left is the enemy. They delude themselves into thinking there's a war on Christianity when the vast majority of the left are also Christian. 

 

I'd say a more general religion forum is probably better? Like Religious Forums?

[GraceRandolph]

Ugh I can’t belive it’s almost 2019 and the end of a decade. I wanna kill myself. I refuse to accept this. 

[FantasticBeasts]

Guys time for advicw.

I have that cousin of mine who recently told me that she is dating a guy I have known for quite a while. More precisely we are very close friends with his sister.

A few days after, I was around and his sisterr told me that her brother is in a relationship with another girl for a long time.

I think there is some good possibility she is not updated on his love life but at the same time I will feel very guilty If the guy is messing with my cousin and I am not telling her anything.

I just don't know what's the best to do.

Yeah, I may look into that.  Especially since I’m not all that strict about my doctrine beyond the significance I put on a trinitarian Godhead.  Usually I’ll just browse reddit for specific topics, but reddit can often seem like a fundamental atheist fapfest.

 

I think I have more a Buddhist/Existentialist/Panthiestic philosophy with Christianity being my path.  Right now I’m visiting an Episcopalian just as a means to get out of those fundamentalist doctrines, they give room to doubt and have weird and changing beliefs.

 

There’s a lot of people who’d probably gain a lot from being on a Christian path, but the right wing fundamentalists put to many constraints on what it means to be Christian for it to really seem desirable to people.

I vary on the tomato.  If it's in a sauce form I'm good.   Or if it's diced up for tacos or pico de gallo, good.   Put a slice or having it whole, no way.
