Losing a dear friend for the Gospel

I also have my past, and the Lord forgives, if you are truly repentant. I also can smell bullshit from a mile because love does not blind me. I was born this way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Count the friendship lost. Mourn if you must, but don't regret it. Never regret anything done for Christ.
I've lost count how many potential girlfriends and good friends I've lost over Christ.
Actually, that's a lie, I remember almost every one of them by name and the wistful sighs still happen about how I could have handled it better, or explained things better.
Don't bother second-guessing yourself: the Lord is still the Lord of all things, and no soul is lost that belongs to Him.

Just focus on the fact that friends and girlfriends pass away, but the Lord is ALWAYS.

Again, when have you heard anyone say
And the reasons why they did those things can be:
1. they didn't think it was wrong anyway
2. they knew it was wrong but did it anyway because hey I'll repent

And this constant justification of sin and not mentioning the consequences of one's action is what's turning me away from Christianity at a very speedy pace. If a kid can cheat on a school test and get away with it, he will do it. The same goes for sin and all I see is people telling me how basically everyone gets away with sin.

Matt 11:11:

Who is that hippie? Does he not know that long hair dishonoreth a man?

Sorry, typo: 1968, the year the sexual revolution hit and the Church was forever infected with modernism.


No, I'm a Catholic bordering absolute despair.
I keep hearing people saying I follow the worst Church in the world, the greatest evil of all times, etc…other Christians I know told me that many many times, and living also in a very secular place, I am a tad lost.

Arguing with women when they're behaving like this is a complete wadte of time. I would have just stopped the conversation and talked to her when she was less emotional.

I don't know what to tell you except time to move on. Shake the dust off your feet.

Not Christian honestly, they've put themselves out of the Church voluntarily and will pay the ultimate price.

Who doesn't live in a very secular place? Let the Spirit bring you comfort.

I wish I could find a place where Catholics are in a small minority and not bothered…I don’t even like most if my own Church.
