  • Sorry, Poche: yes, the context is Sodomites who don't go to Mass — those who don't believe in God. The magazine LoT cited is secular. The way I see it, people are going to "lose their desires" at some point anyway, so it's not even about who one might be attracted to (Sodomite, adulterer, etc). It's about belief in and obeying God, versus belief in humanity (the world, Satan). Same old song-and-dance, just like Tower of Babel, Sodom, N. Israel before they were sacked by the people Jonah the Prophet unwillingly helped the Nineveh/Assyrian people repent.

    Quote from: Mabel
    We used to have an old man table at our local Denny's...I can tell you I've pictured several posters at that table.

    My big thing is I always assign people to locations. I was sure, you SCG, were a Texan.

    That would be a fun game! :cheers:


    I KNOW it would be fun! Bzzt on the location — east coast soccer mom. (But I drive sports cars... it's a thing. That was my thing before Marriage.) I have a sister who lived in Texas, though!

    We had a coffee shop I still frequent, with a similar old man table! Many of those old men went to a local Indult, too.

    But in the space of 10 years, every last one is no longer with us.  :sad:

    I've tried to revive it in a way (tell the next group of newly-retired men to start that), but coffee's too expensive or something. I miss that table of men. Once, one of them got a laptop, and they were all sitting there figuring out how to use it with the free wifi. I'm not sure they ever "got it" without lots of help each day. The kids would go over and help them get to google, but they wanted Yahoo's home page, and then they were happy. They did public prayer, too. It was very nice.

    Can't do that stuff at malls. I'll make a hot toddy and toast them all this evening. Definite "don't know what you've got till it's gone" moment.  :cry:  :alcohol:
