I was thinking about how many people call us homophobic, and how, on average, explaining the reasons why homosexual acts are sinful changes nothing. I realized that offering the usual theological arguments is pointless, because most people fail to grasp the concept of Divine a…
He literally told God "nah you're not dying on me" and got called satan (Matthew 16:22 and surrounding verses). Also when Jesus was washing the apostles' feet, Peter said how could God wash his feet, but then when Jesus told him that he needs to do it for Peter to be with him he…
A few days ago, I mentioned in a post that I no longer dare to receive Communion because I’m afraid of being humiliated by a priest again since I want to receive Communion on the tongue. I stopped going to that church in my city and started looking for a better place where recei…
I’m 13 and am trying to get closer with God and basically just be the best Catholic that I can. I’ve been praying and reading the bible more and have a pink rosary that my mom and dad got me that I’ve prayed. I’ve also been trying my best to not complain about going to Mass sinc…

As a convert to Catholicism from Protestantism...I often wonder..."what are the biggest existential threats to the Catholic Church?" I'd love to hear your opinion(s) and views, respectfully please🙏 Thank you🙂
I have grown up with no religion and have recently wanted to convert to be Catholic as I am interested in it. My family will judge me if I'd ask to go to a church and the walk is very far. I've never been religious and don't know much. I only have home and online. I've never bee…
