Like how in the first Catechism it said it was okay to pray for the death of your enemies… what..?

Some of the Psalms are like that, so I wouldn’t say it’s never true. Most of the time it is best to pray for their repentance though.

@stephie
Oh yes, I’ll be praying! <3

@theducktator
Yay!! Praise the Lord!!!

Could you all pray for our piano competition? My brother is playing today, which is about a week earlier than he expected, and he found this out Tuesday. I don’t think he’s ever had a perfect run through, and his category has to be memorized. I play two songs next week, not memorized, but I was only assigned one of my pieces a month ago, and then…[Read more]

@stephie

Oh, that’s awful. I’ll be praying.

MY DAD GOT A JOB!!! He’s under a contract for a year, which means he’s considered self employed, and we’ll have to pay our own insurance, but he’s getting paid a lot more too. He works in computer programming by the way.

@the_lost-journal

I guess a beloved pet would be one that is loved. You will see your dog again, but our friends who keep and slaughter their chickens wouldn’t see them again. I think it would extend to other loved animals too. Like I wonder if I will see the sick house finch I tried to help but failed to heal a few years ago.

Why would on animal…

A RELIGION teacher? Wow.

…do y’all want me to keep posting random questions on here at random intervals

Sure!

@the_lost-journal

Oh my goodness. My dad says that in general animals don’t go to heaven, but a beloved pet would.

@stephie

The invite is sent to our emails.

@grcr

Oooh, I want one! I’ll have to figure out which one though.

I’m a bit late to this.

My art definitely bleeds into my writing a lot. All of my stories have some sort of color palette in my mind, and a lot of my characters, especially from Paper Stars, started as drawings I made. (Ex. Dante, Lemonhead, Mel) And my obsession with turning my old school work into origami stars a few years ago is what inspired…[Read more]

@trailblazer

Haha sounds familiar… I think I can put a real political event or name to almost everything you just mentioned!

Lol, same. Most of that wasn’t even intentional. I just decided that the government would be similar to ours, and things escalated from there. XD

@stephie

It depends. I would say usually yes but fighting on the internet never convinces anyone, and sometimes it’s just best to be quiet. I also don’t think you should go up to someone who’s clearly of a different religion and randomly tell them off. But if it comes up in conversation or court or somewhere, absolutely.

@esther-c

In my first draft I actually never wrote a scene of their first study sesh together…do you think I should add that in for the second draft??

WHAT??? I was looking forward to reading that sooo bad!

Even you were wrong, but believed you were right, I still think it would be good to disagree with the other person.

All of what I said still depends on the situation and the intentions of the people involved, though.

@stephie

Yes. There are some social situations where it would be inappropriate or pointless to start a fight with someone like that, but if the topic came up, then yes. Tell what you believe is the truth. Staying silent or affirming a something that you do not actually believe in is deceiving the person you are talking with. Yes, it might sting…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Ohhhh my wordddd

Ok that actually makes so much sense. I felt like the story was moving too fast and wasn’t exactly sure how to slow it down.

Thanks for pointing that out!! <33

@grcr

Mmm. If that’s how other books do it, I guess it could work. I looked it up and some people say to extend the vowels and smooth con…

@savannah_grace2009

Mmmm…that does make sense, I’m just not sure how to do that.

Instead of “hope”, my characters are trying to fix their problems themselves. Which might be a “false hope”, but I don’t really see it as hope. I understand what you mean, I’m just not exactly sure how to do that.

Ok! Yeah, again, do what you wanna do. But if you…[Read more]

Nice board!

@whalekeeper

Normally everyone’s trying to kill each other with jokes.

That’s how my class works too. XD
