/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

I don't usually post Hitler on this board but I think this quote is important.

>The greatness of Christianity was not established through compromise. They had no reason to engage in negotiations of appeasement with those who had roughly similar, ancient philosophical opinions. It was created through unyielding and fanatical declaration and defense of its own teachings.

Christianity in many places is "de-establishing" itself.

I will also note that I’m not saying men are oh so great. But this post is about women and how they can be a negative influence if they are not controlled.

"I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet."

1 Timothy 2:12

>We’re running out of money and students though so we’ll probably close in the near future.

Good riddance.

Why don't you go to a real Catholic university like Dallas or Christendom?

Thank the Lord. Just like how shitlib bugmen don't reproduce, it follows that those who spit in the face of God and embrace Satan's culture of death must ultimately die. And this board says there's no such thing as natural selection :^)

Sorry to hear that you'll likely be losing your job if you close. I pray you'll find new work quickly. If it's any conciliation, contributing to a rotten institution working for the damnation of souls would most probably have been terribly damaging to you in the long run.

I think college in general is hurting people’s souls. Not every aspect, but the overall experience seems to retard people. It’s also insane that 18 year olds make a decision to take on massive debt that can affect them for life.

I’m not really worried about finding another job. I’ve gotten good experience so I think I can find something.

Currently attending an [/spoiler] Anglican [/spoiler] church in Sydney, Australia. Definitely not feminized and doesn't allow women preachers.

As a matter of fact the female seminarian assigned to our church for the practical aspect of her studies has to travel to a different church whenever she's required to give a sermon as part of her classes, which I find quite amusing.

messed up the spoiler, how embarassing

>attends a college full of nuns

>why are there so many winnie the pooh women there guys?

Report those abuses to the local Bishop otherwise shut up.

If you think about changing denomination because some members of the Church are sinners you were never a Catholic in the first place. Christianism is about truth. And the Catholic Church is the Truth. So it doesn't really matter what some people there are doing. Hell awaits them.

You fell for the meme. Go to the seminar.

I started university as 17, had some loan signed by my parents without my knowledge that they both never informed me of (I could’ve paid on it) and they stopped playing, and it tanked my credit score for at least three more years.

I also tried going to counseling because I was starting to have some uncomfortable (depressive/idealizing suicide) thoughts because I wasn’t socially adjusting at all, but the university just lied to both myself and my parents and kicked me out when I asked for help. Only spent a night in “observation” but going to counseling cost me a full ride scholarship in my confidence in going to talk to professionals about my problems, plus as I was 17 I didn’t have any legal autonomy over myself and the university lied to my parents about what I said. It broke me and I’ve just given up on my life since (22 now). I can’t focus on anything, haven’t been able to since that incident, though I can work a job fine. My parents are also the leading church figures where I live and they just insist I’m a lazy bum and I’ve long since fallen out of faith and gotten the whole I’m going to Hell shtick already, though I’ve taken up an interest in church again. Seeing friends and family graduate while I’m three years behind and totally unable to communicate with anyone has made the same issue that threw my life into the gutter leave me in a state of despair daily. Oh well.

I’ve had lots of problems with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. I’ve been close to suicide.

I made a lot of good decisions in my life in avoiding things like drugs and alcohol and lifestyle choices I thought would cause problems.

I’ve never seen someone for autism, but I took a test online that is supposed to be what professionals give, and it said you are very autistic. There might be other factors that go into a diagnosis, but it’s safe to say I have some problems of someone labeled as autistic.

I struggled socially in college and deciding what to do. This will sound arrogant, but a part of it was that I could see too clearly. Most people only think about the moment, and maybe anticipate the next moment, especially if it involves pleasure or pain. For me, I could see 10 steps ahead. And it make me very nervous about making ether wrong move.

Our society isn’t built for people like me.

After college, I struggled to find a job while people who cheated and were bad students got jobs. I became a NEET for a couple years, and just laid in bed for one year because I was in suicidal despair. My parents didn’t even say anything. It’s unbelievable to me. I was laying in bed like a comatose patient and they never once said anything. The only way I could get them to say something would be if I stood in front of the TV and blocked their view.

I went back to school, and just focused on getting internships and job experience. The school part was a joke. At my job, 99% of what I do are skills I learned in high school playing around with computers in my own free time. And I’m not a computer wizard.

My parents were very violent to each other in my home growing up. My mother would fly into a rage if you set down a glass, even if you did so as quietly as possible. She’d scream so loud, saying you made noise, that I could hear her a few houses down the street. Then my parents would be violent to each other and blame me. This terrified me as a kid and hurt me…

….At one point I started wanting to be a girl. This was before transgender mania. No one knew what transgenderism was. I wanted to be a girl because I thought you didn’t hit girls, and being one would protect me from my parents. I was also very sensitive, far more than most boys and girls, and I think I do have more of a feminine side than most men.

What helped me was going back to school and doing tons of internships and jobs so I stood out on my resume. I wish I made more money, but I have a job.

I used to think my depression would go away if I got away from my parents and never talked to them again. My therapist had told me to do that. I didn’t talk to them for a year or so, and it didn’t help. I tried so hard after my second going to school to get a job, but I couldn’t right away, and I moved back home. Now I just feel like what’s the point.

Every relationship I’ve had has turned out to be shallow, or I’ve been betrayed. I loved a woman, and she left me for a man more successful and fun than me could provide for her and give her the lifestyle she wants. This is despite her being a feminist who said women didn’t need men. I didn’t know what feminism was at the time. We were very close and could tell each other our deepest thoughts and problems. That wasn’t enough. She didn’t want a true friend. She wanted a stronger man to take care of her.

We had been friends in college, and after graduation she emailed me out of the blue saying how depressed she was in the real world. I tried to console her, then confessed my depression. Later I learned this whole time she had been dating this guy whom she married. This was after her feminist rants in college about never wanting to marry or have a boyfriend because she was independent. I was a cuck for lending my time and emotional energy to help her. All my relationships are destined to be shallow. At work, everyone just pretends to be nice if you pretend to be nice. But they leave the job and move on and you never see them again.

My parents would be so violent, then my dad would go to church and pretend he’s was a good person. It would be one thing if he had the self awareness to feel guilty and sorry, but he is self deluded. He is known for helping his friends an neighbors, and highly regarded by them, but neglected his family.

I was left feeling that marriage was a hell hole where I’d be abused. I was left feeling that all these people I see in their homes with their families could be hiding violent secrets. I never had the sense I could trust anyone. I knew what horrors they were capable of behind the mask they wore.

I don’t feel suicidal at this moment, but I think about it a lot. I think about how someone like Elliot Smith committed suicide, and how could someone who gave the world such beautiful songs be in Hell? But I am afraid of going to hell with my parents.

I’ve had some health problems that are probably autoimmune and not serious, but I sometimes wish I’d get diagnosed with a terminal illness.

There were times I wish God would just take me. I begged him. I also begged the devil to help me because I was so desperate.

“But doctor, I’m not sick. My only problem is that I see too clearly.” - From the movie The Devil, Probably.

> I was laying in bed like a comatose patient and they never once said anything

Feel you anon. My parents didn't give a shit about me when I went through a nervous breakdown and lost my business. They just got mad at me for having a nervous breakdown

Best thing that ever happened to me. Cut them out of my life, focused on church, God healed my anxiety and panic disorder and now they wonder why I've gone non-contact with them and they don't get to see their grandkids. I refuse to let them mess up my kids like they messed up me- and I couldn't see how badly they were destroying my psyche until I was away for them for over a year (a year and 3 months, actually). During that time I was in church three times a week and in counseling once a week. Get the heck outta there and live for God.

Also, your girls troubles? Hate to tell you this, man up and they'll come to you. Every woman wants a strong man to take care of her; though some like to pretend they're your equal when it suits them. Some people are derogatory about it but women are half-children. That doesn't mean their dumb, that doesn't mean they don't have wisdom, but they definitely live more in the now and only work for what they want now. They want you to discipline them kindly, make them feel safe, and organize the family - many without having to acknowledge you're the one doing it.

However, all the sucessful relations I've seen, mine included, are the result of careful rhetoric and logic built up over time. Doesn't work to just jump in saying you're the man- you've gotta show her you're the man and gently remind her of silly things she's done without destroying her confidence (just like, "remember when I said X would turn out this way, babe. That's still a bummer though, seriously, I was just trying to warn you") over time, they take your direction more and get happy and the whole thing builds. Of course, all that only works if you're serving God and putting him first. Selfish men just abuse and destroy their families. Anyway, totally digressing at this point. Good luck bro, God Bless.

When I cut my parents out of my life, nothing changed. I cannot relate to anyone, despite doing eveything to try. I feel like an alien that crash landed on earth.

I don’t know what man up actually means. I understand women more now thanks to the Internet. Back then, these resources didn’t exist. I wasn’t a feminist, but I realized I was indirectly because their ideas were the only ones I was presented with in school. I didn’t have a father figure who would teach me about women (or anything).

I don’t understand the idea of manning up and women coming to me, though. I lift weights and study how to dress well. I will never let a woman push me around again. I do understand they are like children who are trying to be men. I don’t care about a woman’s career accomplishments. Although I understand most women have to work, internally I laugh when I see them in their power suits acting aggressive, basically mimicking what they think a tough business man is. To me, it looks like if a nursery was filled with ripped, hairy men. It looks silly.

I’ve learned a lot about women online over the past 4 or so years. But I don’t really understand the idea of women coming to me unless I get super ripped or rich. If this is the system we have, we are doomed. We need to return to a courtship system, where communities and families aid in pairing comparable couples at a very young age so they can form a strong family unit.

If everyman has to be a business leader, then our current system is unsustainable. There aren’t enough positions to occupy.

I’m just listing some thoughts off the top of my head right now.
