  • Real men know how to practice virtue properly.  Please explain the virtue of rash judgment to me.

    Do you even know if the poster has a husband?

    Yes. Holy anger is a virtue. 

    A woman out of control on the internet is an evil. She is practicing vice and in particular the sin of pride.

  • Yes, it is very wrong to rashly judge parishioners who may not meet our criteria as a good Catholic.  There are so many souls that our Lord converts from bad habits and shady pasts who still have tattoos or maybe wear their makeup too heavy. 

    A man can have a good few years to improve himself. A woman is already who she is at about 18/19. She can convert, but she has to struggle more than a man. Certainly considering her time limit in having children.

    In my personal experience, if a woman has not converted before 25 it will be real hard for her to adapt to a good Catholic marriage and the demands that the Sacraments makes on people.

    I have seen plenty of  26-28 year old women converting. And they are very zealous, but they would never be able to cope well in marriage.

    Please lets remember we live in a society that is getting worse by the day. More and more anti marriage. NOT less.

    Therefore those who will survive, are those who are the most zealous and the most capable. Not less!

    Lets stop the dreaming folks. It's brutal out there, and even the Bible says "the luke warm I will spit you out". We must be on fire for God.

    How do you tell the difference between Holy Anger and rash judgement?  It would be best to not fall into pride and assume you have Holy Anger.

    And cconquering yourself is the answer.

    In Catholic tradition, conquering the self—or self-mastery—is
    the essential, daily struggle to overcome selfish tendencies, passions, and sin, allowing for greater love of God and neighbor. It involves mortification, prayer, and utilizing the Sacraments to align one's will with God, often described as the "grandest triumph" and the foundation of holiness. 
    Key Aspects of Self-Conquest in Catholicism
    • Definition: It is the redirection of disordered passions and willful ego toward the service of God and others.
    • Purpose: The goal is to cultivate virtue (specifically temperance and fortitude) to achieve freedom from sin and to grow in charity.
    • Mortification: Fasting and small, daily acts of self-denial are crucial for training the will and subordinating physical appetites to reason.
    • Spiritual Life: Saints like Ignatius of Loyola and Francis Borgia emphasized that true holiness requires overcoming oneself, as prayer alone is not enough.
    • The Role of Grace: While requiring human effort, true self-conquest is ultimately achieved by cooperating with divine grace, particularly through the Eucharist and confession. 
    Practical Approaches
    • Focus on the "Little Way": Accepting daily annoyances, or "little crosses," strengthens the soul.
    • Targeting Faults: Identifying and working on one's "predominant fault" is more effective than vague self-improvement.
    • Habit Formation: Consistently practicing patience and humility to turn virtuous actions into habits.

    Because the thing is true.

    As a woman your judgment is frail and weak.

  • Yeah, maybe these disgruntled men commenting need to take a deep look at themselves.  If it is God's will for you to marry, He will provide.  Maybe you are not suitable material at this point in your life to be a loving husband and father.  Maybe, many of you unmarried men complaining, have a wrong view of marriage and would lord it over your wife making her despise you.
    You probably have a crummy marriage, that's why you sound so miserable. Maybe have some empathy for single men who struggle.

  • Look at this graph. It's not normal. Men not being able to support a family on a single income working a 'basic' job is not normal. All by design. Meanwhile mohamhead, ranjeet and tyrone get gib me dats from the government all from our tax $$$.

    One interesting point in that graph --

    From age 15 to age 20 the % chance goes down 5 percent! So apparently a huge chunk of the "kids" women have happen to teen single moms?

    I have great empathy for single traditional Catholic men.  My son is single at 36 and has not found a decent young lady to even consider.  He accepts his lot as the will of God with hopes of finding a wife at some point.  But it it were my son posting these rash, judgemental statements about traditional Catholic women, It would disturb me.

    Typically non -whites and very poor whites have children as teens, everyone else uses contraception and abortion.

  • Crazy thing is that I actually know a few resistance families where the daughters would be quite willing, but the parents keep them locked away basically, or do nothing to help them find someone. Taking total advantage of the fact that they are trusting homeschooled girls.

    The autism of trads strikes agains.

    And these girls are in their twenties!
    Maybe they plan on arranging their marriages lol?

    I think it has also do with fertility and statistical chance of having offspring.

    Yes, but if a woman can't have children at 20, she won't be able to have kids at all. Fertility is pretty much maxed out at that age.

    That might be it. And that was my point. Something like this must be pretty common, to move the stats that much.
