    @bitwarden Why is the price of #Bitwarden Premium subscriptions skyrocketing by 65% this year?

    You know, the #protestants broke off from #Catholicism because of the selling of #indulgences, but isn&amp;#39;t the #prosperitygospel literally the same thing?

    Sending someone #deaththreats is ever okay. However, I also believe that telling someone that they deserve #god &amp;#39;s wrath and that they will experience #eternal #torture by said god just for existing, I think that is also a kind of death threat. If nothing else it&amp;#39;s a form of #dehumanization. But this is just how most #Christians talk to and about the #LGBT community. How can we have productive dialogue when one side believes the other side to be subhuman and wholly worthy of eter...

    I wonder how the #Blessed #VirginMary felt when #Jesus brushed her off that one time saying &amp;quot;Who are my mother and brothers? People who obey me are my mother and brothers!&amp;quot; I mean, if they walked all the way from #Nazareth to Gadara or Gerasa or wherever he was preaching at that time, it had to have been important. #Luke 8:19-21 #bible #christ #christian #gospel #thoughts

    Why did the #Catholic #Church only do the #Mass in #Latin until 1962? It was a language few people spoke except the very educated. The Church didn&amp;#39;t even allow vernacular translations of the #Bible until the #Reformation forced their hand. Did people in #medieval Europe go to church every Sunday just to hear chanting in a language they didn&amp;#39;t understand? How did they learn the #gospel? Was it like a situation with the #Quran and #Arabic? Why then didn&amp;#39;t the priests teach...

    In the words of Christian rock band Petra, IT IS FINISHED! The #firstdraft of my latest #JackDinero #novel, Christmas in Creosote Canyon, is in the can at a whopping 150,000 words! That&amp;#39;s literally 3 #NanoWrimo novels worth of content that I wrote in the last 3 months! It&amp;#39;s in a rough state and I&amp;#39;ve got to trim out a third of that if I want it to be publication ready, but at least I can take the summer off and still have it ready in time for #Christmas . #novel #ya #young...

    Perhaps the reason why it took 4,000 years from Adam&amp;#39;s fall to the birth of #Jesus #Christ is because it took that long for a person who was sinless enough to survive carrying to term and giving birth to #God . Maybe the whole #OldTestament is the story of God&amp;#39;s long breeding experiment to create #Mary just so #Jesus could be born.

    Why are #Catholic men all throughout history so much in love with a woman who will never put out? Is this some sort of #medieval #chivalry thing or is there Something About #Mary?

    Conservative #protestants believe that liberal Protestants believe that anything goes theologically and sin is okay. Liberal Protestants believe that conservatives are too much in bed with the #GOP and have forgotten #Jesus &amp;#39; command to love one another in a sea of #oldtestament legalism. I just want to find a #church that studies the #bible, does acts of #charity in the community, and won&amp;#39;t kill me for believing in #evolution or that #lgbt people deserve love not hate. Is this...

    I&amp;#39;ve been dipping too much into #theology lately. But it&amp;#39;s not getting me any closer to knowing the answer to the deep questions of my heart: how do I love and serve #God and my neighbor? How do I find a group of #friends who will lift me up in a #spiritual manner? How do I cope in a world where need is so great and #evil is so powerful and oppressive? How do I become part of the solution instead of part of the problem? #religion #christ #jesus #christian #christianity #poverty #...

    I love when people use #Romans Chapter 1 to condemn #LGBT people and conveniently forget that Romans Chapter 2 is an extended treatise on #Jesus&amp;#39; &amp;quot;Judge not, lest ye shall be judged.&amp;quot; #bible #apostle #paul #epistle #commentary
