Search Results: does he want from me

Here are some of Cardinal Robert Sarah’s key quotes being highlighted ahead of Pope Francis’ funeral later this week.

1. The West has ‘cut itself off from its Christian heritage’
“The West no longer knows who it is, because it no longer knows and does not want to know who made it… The West refuses to acknowledge its Christian roots.”
“By losing its faith, Europe has also lost its reason to be.”

2. Gender ideology is ‘Luciferian’
“Gender ideology is a Luciferian refusal to receive a sexual nature from God.”

3. Mass migration is a ‘new form of slavery’
“All migrants who arrive in Europe are penniless, without work, without dignity. This is what the Church wants? The Church cannot cooperate with this new form of slavery that has become mass migration.”

4. Modern distractions are ‘the devil’s tool’
“Distraction is the devil’s tool for cutting man off from God.”

5. Christians must refuse loyalty to ‘popularity or politics’
“The Church is not a human organization… She must be faithful to Christ.”
“God or nothing: there is no other choice. Those who choose God have everything. Those who choose nothing are lost.”
“If truth no longer exists, if everything is relative, then man becomes a slave to his passions.”

Hello all.

I finished high school at 18 like everyone else with above average marks. I wanted to go to art school and become an animator. However life did not turn out the way I wanted. Due to various personal reasons which I don't want to disclose here, I was not able to go to art school and later ended up as a hikikomori (recluse).

However I did not want to remain living in the dark and watch everyone else succeed. Hence when things sorta improved in my life I tried to give another attempt to follow my artistic passion. At 25 I started drawing once again. It almost felt like learning from scratch as I had never drawn since I was 18. However as I started to draw once again a wave of nostalgia hit me. It felt as if the carefree high school kid in me was alive once again. I felt a type of happiness I had never felt in years. I knew I was on the right track!

I kept improving my art and after few months joined a 2 years diploma course in animation. It felt too late to go for a 4 years course in an art school even though they teach more in depth over there. I graduate in another year as I am already half way in. If things does go as planned and I do get a foot in the door in let's say an animation studio, I will be 28 then. Does it feel too old? Anyone else here who started their career at a later stage?

So, after all the drama about my patriotic kitchen knife (which got lost in transit, by the way), I figured I’d go ahead and trigger the Woke Quality Control Squad™ again—this time, with my garden watering can.

Yep. It’s made by a company that's right here in America, and it’s crafted from globally sourced, recyclable materials. And suddenly, because it’s not whittled from an American bald eagle’s femur, it’s apparently not really Made in the USA. 🦾🇺🇸

Similarly, these woke mobsters will humiliate us so-called "MAGA types," for buying our trucks from the Ford Motor Company, because all the parts are not sourced in America.

The internet has somehow decided that unless the dirt, the mold, and the molecules were all born and raised within U. S. borders, the product doesn’t count. Seriously? Chapin is an American company, employing American workers, manufacturing the product here, paying taxes here, and offering a sustainable product.

But, because they source recyclable plastic while cleaning up the ocean, I am somehow an idiot for buying American?

And, let me get this straight. You want to fight climate change, reduce waste, and buy from companies that are actually trying to do the right thing—but when a U. S. manufacturer does exactly that, you find a reason to complain?
