Oh boy, I may get some heat for this... The Bible is the What and how; the Catechism is the why and for what reason.
This is oddly more pointed towards my Catholic friends. We need to be better about studying our faith, and the why's. Especially before we larp as professional apologists, and perhaps accidentally smear the name of Christ, or his Church.
Sometimes I think I'm losing my mind, but then I remember the rest of the world has lost its. I don't know what to do anymore besides pray. Everything else has just seemed so hopeless and in ruins lately.
Catholics and Protestants need to stop fighting each other online, and start paying attention to who's indocrinating children and young adults with non-christian ideology, and what that ideology means to the future. Like Sharia Law

Amen to all of this. I think X apologetics is generally a screwed space for all Christians. We should all wonder if even that would be by design. I've come to the conclusion that it is. I've been reading and watching, lurking lately.
A Catholic sees nothing but aggressively horrible Protestants and Reformists... Yet a Protestant sees nothing but aggressive and angry Catholics.
We are indeed so busy fighting each other, that we're missing a huge threat to both Western culture and Christianity. We could literally be online, debating apologetics with Muslims or making the case for Christ with them.
Instead, we just stay flippant which each other. So long as you have faith in the Triune God, you're a Christian. That's it, and that's all. We can save the "Is Rome completely necessary or not" arguments for any other day. We can also save the "is Sola Scriptura even valid" debates until we make headway elsewhere.
You know what I have noticed? Muslims following teens accounts, adult and otherwise. Casually commenting on Christianity, quoting "Surah" this or that. Going from the Quran and Hadith to make the case for Islam.
While we do what? Fight with each other, all of the time.
To my Catholic brothers and sisters... Protestants ARE Christians too. Even our own dogma recognizes that. We're supposed to come from a place of humility and chairity... That's also a scripturally and dogmatically sound.
I digress...
Not so budget built in the same case
-FLP01
-Gigabyte B850 Ice MATX
-64gbs DDR5
-Ryzen 9900X
-4TBs (2x2TB) Nvme storage drives
-Zotac RTX 4060
-EVGA 750W PSU (for old times sake)
This one will be a "budget" build.
RTX 4060
Ryzen 5700X
64gbs DDR4
Asrock B450 Matx
Noctua Fans, and that CPU cooler in the photo is misleading. I'm going stock for the cooler instead.
Shucked 2tb drive
A similar but better build coming soon for my daughters Birthday.
"jailbroken" (not as fancy as it sounds, but still cool) AI models run locally on your mobile device without an internet connection is a sign of where things are headed.
Same. AI is a tool. So is a hammer. Whether it's used as a tool or a weapon is up to the weilder. Same humanity, new technology, same adjustment period and fear of the unknown. It's really not as serious as it's made out to be, and them asking to be regulated is likely fiscal.

Wonder why @farmingandJesus didn’t mention that there are more sexual abuse claims for Protestants annually than Catholics in the US? 🤔 maybe don’t use the pain of others as a cover for your bad theology when it hurts your own side even more.
This is actually really solid advice generally speaking. I still think there's something more we need to do as Catholics and Christians to be more edifying and to not use trashy tactics like @BibleInContext1 uses. He will block well spoken and well catechized Catholics just so he can display the lesser catechized and the ones that make us look awful.
He does not care about the Bible or the truth what he cares about is hatred for the Catholic church and his page makes it clear
This is the moment where I realize I am going to make a project out of going through his entire website that is too debunk Catholicism and I am going to go through line by line his website and preach what is true against his bigotry and hatefulness.
To Catholics that want to dance around the whole "we don't worship Mary" thing to avoid the judgement if others... Start being honest, just give the qualifiers. We do worship Mary by even our own Churches definition. How we define worship is what's different. No one has to agree with us, but we need to be honest. This thread between me and @_GodFamilyGuns_ is worth pondering if you're a Catholic. For my Protestant friends, it MIGHT help make sense of how we separate the Glory that is due to God above all and everyone else, and the "words worth" we give to Mary and the martyrs.
We pay her, her words worth. Technically, by our own definition, we do... Just not the way they Protestants see it. Dulia, hyper dulia, and latria being the 3 types of "worship" or "words worth". Latria being the highest of all glory... That's for God, and God alone.
Looking at a 2000 year old faith through modern eyes can really mess with people's perceptions, which is why a lot of Protestants think we worship Mary as a deity... Which we're absolutely forbidden from doing.
The problem is that many of them consider themselves more knowledgeable of our faith than we are.
