    Proper Use of the Archaic Second Person Singular (Thou)

    And yes, I realize that addressing my readers in the singular is also bad usage, but I did so intentionally for demonstrative purposes.

    Proper Use of the Archaic Second Person Singular (Thou)

    I saw a video being suggested on YouTube entitled: Is Thou Girlfriend Single? Not that I would watch such ungrammatical rubbish but I when I see people on the internet attempt to use old forms they often get it wrong.

    Proper Use of the Archaic Second Person Singular (Thou)

    Every time I see people use thou and thee incorrectly it genuinely hurts me. So I am going to explain its correct usage and in turn increase thy knowledge of Early Modern English. Thou is the second person singular. It is equivalent to the French tu or the German du. Thou itself is the...

    Judgment from Yahweh during Chr-stmas Day?

    Indeed, the world must exercise all trace of this popish observance lest the wrath of God become yet more severe. Come out of her my people lest ye partake in her sins. Let us then free ourselves of Romish influence and return at once to the pure and simple word of God. Let us do away with their...

    Is Catholicism true and...

    Do you think most in the West embrace liberalism and progressivism because they've thought deeply about the world? Or have they embraced these ideologies because secular liberalism is the de facto creed of the overall society in the West? The received truth of modern society. Most people end up...

    Christians: is there a hell?

    Mainstream Christianity has always taught that those who die outside the grace of God will be condemned to an eternity of conscious punishment in Hell. Five minutes of research would tell you that. Catholicism teaches that an act of perfect contrition suffices to be forgiven of all sin, but the...

    Is Catholicism true and...

    I don't think the original post makes any sense to be honest. Whether or not Catholicism is true and how many accept or reject it have no intrinsic connection. Truth is concord with reality and if Catholicism concords with reality then it doesn't matter how many reject it because its true...

    Christians: about Hitler…

    Sin deadens our ability to respond to grace and since repentance is a grace it is unlikely that someone as far gone as Hitler would have been capable of responding to any grace God would have been willing to grant him. Nonetheless, God can do what he pleases including bringing even the most...

    Iranian executions are based on the Qur'an.

    I very much doubt the accused got a fair trial. Do you trust a regime whose "morality" justifies beating a woman to death because she failed to wear her hijab properly? A regime that resorts to murder and intimidation to force its theocracy upon a population who clearly do not want it? As it has...

    45000+ Denominations

    The irony is that sola scriptura is nowhere taught in the Christian canon. On the contrary, the New Testament exhorts Christians to hold fast to the traditions taught by both letter and word. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 That word is called Sacred Tradition. (The Christian equivalent of the Oral...

    speaking in tongues?

    You can subscribe to whatever you wish. But I can likewise dismiss your blabbing as self delusion.

    45000+ Denominations

    I make a distinction between apostolic Christianity and Protestantism (loosely defined) and its offshoots. Most of the innumerable sects are Protestant. Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy and Oriental Orthodoxy remain coherent and visible traditions which combined make up most of the world's...

    Christians, Catholics Mainly: Novus Ordo UK vs. US

    I don't know what the standard experience of the Novus Ordo is like in the UK but growing up during the 90's and 00's in Australia the experience was one of mediocrity at best outright blasphemy at worst. The fundamental problem as I see it is that the Novus Ordo as I actually experienced it was...

    Is Christmas......

    It's an easy thread to make that's guaranteed to generate activity.

    speaking in tongues?

    It's silly. To speak in tongues is the ability to be understood by everyone as if you were speaking in their native languages. What we see among Pentecostals and certain Evangelical types is but mere babbling. Nothing miraculous about it.

    The Synod of Catholic Falsification

    I know perfectly well what they're claiming this synod is about. I'm saying their (the liberal bishops) real goal is to implement progressive reforms using the synodal process as the justification. This is what I believe they want: To open the priesthood to married men and allowing the already...

    The Synod of Catholic Falsification

    Don't let the kabuki theater fool you. The conclusions of this synod were predetermined long before the questionnaires were drawn up.

    The Synod of Catholic Falsification

    There are limits to what I am willing to accept. The formal embrace of the morality of secular modernity is beyond what I can accept from a Church that claims to teach perennial truth.

    The Synod of Catholic Falsification

    If my fears are correct then the ultimate aim of this pontificate is to reform the Church's practice in a decisively progressive direction on most if not all of the hot button issues. He cannot implement such changes outright by decree because that would almost certainly cause a catastrophic...

    The Synod of Catholic Falsification

    Could you imagine any of the pre-conciliar popes doing anything which could give even the slightest impression of an endorsement of paganism? I think this is why so many in the Church feel so threatened by the traditionalists. Because there is a disparity between the pre and post Vatican II...
