I don't typically ask for personal prayers, but if y'all can pray for my mental health, please do. My life is gone because of the COVID restrictions so it's hard to stay sane, especially since I'm diagnosed with depression. I'm sure many of you are suffering the same.

You know that a paper arguing that atheism is more pious than belief in God - even if God exists - is going to be a banger when it starts with "I grew up Catholic"

Every new, big Eva book is one of the following:
- Jesus wasn't Republican or Democrat
- CS Lewis is great!
- We have to be more irenic (except to Christians who hold harsh positions)
- Everyone sins, so don't condemn practices that modern culture coincidentally approves

I had no idea what I wanted for my future, but when a trad girl tweeted "get married young and have 6 million kids" everything made sense.
I went to the local arboretum and picked a wife off a tree. Married her 20 minutes later. It's so easy, and I'm so glad I saw that tweet!

I've had some interviews since then, but the job market is obviously very tough right now.
I have 3 good references all from that company (a different boss, peer, and member from another team) to help me during my job search. But it still sucks. Please pray I find a good job.

I just finished reading Jeffrey Hemmer's "Man Up!" which covers what masculinity is and it's really, really good. Hemmer's broad argument is that alpha culture is the opposite of masculinity because Christ, the perfect man, did not live a life like that.

The Bible: Analytic Philosopher Translation
"For some individual x, if x contains the property of meekness M, then blessedness B is necessarily coextensive with M in x. The combination of M & B necessarily entails x inheriting the Earth" (Matthew 5:5)

Can he say anything intelligent? Lol
I mean seriously I like beautiful churches but do you really think that external beauty is an indicator of truth? That's practically the opposite of what the Bible says half the time lol

I was actually crying laughing when watching this video. Some highlights:
- Defining Reformed theology as theonomic, postmil, and presup
- Actual yelling
- Citing his 90s debates as a witness to his authority
- Claiming Thomists are afraid of him
Well, Dr James White is now officially a Restorationist.

Bro have you met any Protestants who aren't evangelical 😭😭😭
I’m currently looking into the Marian Dogmas. In the beginning of Luke’s Gospel, Mary claims that “all generations will call me blessed.” For Protestants, when was the last time you called Mary blessed? I don’t think I ever have.

Just saw the old clip of John MacArthur saying "depression is just thinking about morbid things, think on good things...we don't offer depression counselling"
I think this man is actually a danger to his congregants. The fact that his church "licenses" counselors terrifies me.

Some of my hottest takes:
- I genuinely have not gotten anything out of Chesteron's non-fiction
- Pop apologists are horrendous on the whole
- Watching sports is fun and can be healthy
- CS Lewis is significantly overused
- Gatekeeping can be good
