I had so many attractive women flirt with me these past ten years it's not funny

Most cruelly of all, I live in Curitiba, home to the prettiest women in the world. Probably.

It's up to you if you want to contribute to your nation or not. The Roman Republic had absolute monogamy and went on to conquer and expand, regardless of its religious leanings. You could just say that your country is going to die anyway, so you might as well enjoy the ride, but there's short-term pleasure and there's long-term pleasure. Physical pleasure that is fleeting and the meaningful satisfaction of building something greater than yourself. And it's certainly about something greater than yourself, according to the scriptures. You might not think this way, however

Yeah, there are indeed a lot of cute girls in Curitiba. Probably a result of all the German/Eastern European migration lol. But anyways, are you a Catholic or Protestant? Or are you unsure about the right doctrine?

Yeah well, if I were an atheist I would not care a whit about this kind of thing.

So because I'm making out with a few women here and there my nation may stand an infinitesimally smaller chance of "advancing", whatever that means - lol dude who gives a f%ck.

I mean if there is no God and we're all going to die anyway, who in their right mind would care about that? It's just such a silly perspective.

Seriously, if I were an atheist I would certainly be *very* hedonistic. Like I would probably try heroin. Why not?

Yeah no kidding. I'm half-German myself.

I was raised Protestant (Mennonite), am considering converting to Catholicism.

Anyway I'm done playing devil's advocate. I don't want to lead anyone astray here. I know that fornication is wrong and there's no way around it. Okay?

Not that I don't mean everything I said here. I think of some of the unbelieavable cuties I could have easily had and it's painful. It hurts.

But ultimately - God exists. Miracles happen. Exorcisms are real. Surrendering to God is the path of true joy and peace and and meaning and fulfillment. Heaven and hell are real and we would do well to consider the implicatons of this fact. Carry our cross and walk the straight and narrow. Jesus is Lord and he died for us and he loves us. And so on. I know.

And the Christian compromise here is not that bad, is it now? I mean marriage. So yes haha - I guess I'll be a good boy and just try to find a wife.

Thanks for playing. Take care everyone.

It's not necessarily an infinitesimal chance. Consider if you became someone that many people look up to, and yet you had those sexual relations. You set an example for the people around you, and for those that see you. You set an example like that, then someone may want to imitate your example and sets an example for others, and so on

I wish you best of luck in your spiritual journey, brother. May you find a honest wife and have lots of children together. I have never fornicated, but if the nofap struggle means anything, the temporary pleasure of the flesh is not worth the misery afterwards. Stay strong and read Humanae Vitae if you'd like to read more about the Catholic perspective on that matter.

Yeah man okay I get your point.

Thanks man.
