I am a Roman Catholic -----
I could stop there, because that is what defines me. I am a child of God in full communion with the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ.
However, I shall provide some background. I am a college student from the United States of America. I have Same-Sex Attractions (SSA), and this is the primary focus of my blog. I’m here providing a witness to the multitude of people who feel alienated by this cross. I’m here to show them that the love of Jesus Christ, found most fully in His Church here on Earth, is offered to them without hesitation. I’m here to bring people to Christ.
Now, I’m also discerning priesthood, so please keep me in your prayers as I do likewise pray for all my followers.
If you'd like to contact me via email, because you'd like to keep the question private, or because you'd like to go into further detail, my email is happyandcatholic@yahoo.com. I check it weekly. Any question posed to me in my Ask box will be posted.

  • student: can i borrow a pencil
  • teacher: i don't know, CAN you?
  • student: yes, also colloquial irregularities occur frequently in any language and since you and the rest of our present company understood my intended meaning being particular about the distinctions between "can" and "may" is purely pedantic and arguably pretentious
  • teacher: Or you could just use the right verb...

So I saw the picture of Taylor Swift on Jessi/e’s body and thought “I’m not gonna regret this” and pressed play. 

I didn’t.

I…I-I-I…I’m sorry, I must have misheard you. Because you did NOT just call Autism an EPIDEMIC…oh wait…you DID?

See, THIS is the type of damaging rhetoric Autism Speaks uses. I want to make something perfectly clear. We are NOT a disease. We are NOT broken. We are human beings, the same as everyone else. We do NOT need a cure. We don’t need people like Autism Speaks trying to “cure” us. Because as I said, we are NOT broken. I am sick of hearing people talking about finding a CURE. Because you can’t cure something that isn’t a disease.

This is a clear example of what Autism Speaks thinks of us. They think we are diseased. They think we’re a spreading epidemic that needs to be eradicated. I know how they would respond. “Oh, we don’t want to eradicate you, just get rid of your Autism, that’s all”. Well, let me tell you something. I’m not ashamed of my Autism. I’m proud of it. It makes me who I am. Yeah, there are negatives to it, but guess what? There are negatives to everything! I don’t want to destroy the good aspects of my personality and the many other good and unique things about myself just to get rid of the few negatives. Instead, how about you help me overcome those negatives so I can do an even better job than I already do at showing off the positives? “Curing” Autism won’t help us. It’ll turn us into something we’re not. It’ll make us fit what society deems normal. Hammering the nail that sticks up as they say. That’s all they care about. Making us “normal”.

If Autism Speaks TRULY cared about Autistics, they’d spend more of the money they use creating demeaning and dehumanizing media about us to provide equipment for those among us who can’t speak. They’d give us a voice. They wouldn’t give their executive board an annual salary of over four-hundred thousand dollars.

If Autism Speaks cared, they would speak up and call out the discrimination we suffer on a daily basis. They would call out school districts that refuse to educate us the way we deserve to be educated. They would put an end to hospitals denying us life-saving organ transplants because they’ve decided our quality of life isn’t worth saving. Instead, their biggest news stories are about which corporations are “going blue” and giving them money.

That’s all we are to Autism Speaks. A commodity. A source of money. Something they can twist into looking like a terrible demon with dehumanizing videos and language, to scare people into giving them money so they can make the problem go away. Only for them to put most of the money into media, their own pockets, and bullshit research that won’t benefit us. This is the problem with Autism Speaks, and our society. This is why we need change. This is why we can’t sit around and let these bastards try to speak for us.

Autism Speaks, I think I speak for more Autistics than you do when I say that you can kindly shove off and leave us alone. You can stop using us as pity-bait, as a tool for your scaremongering. You can stop calling us diseased and talking about curing us. You can stop pretending to care when you make it abundantly clear that you don’t. You can stop dehumanizing us. You can just stop.

In all fairness, they called Autism an epidemic, not autistic people. If you want them to stop dehumanizing you, then you should stop humanizing autism. Autism isn’t a person; autism is a thing.

God Bless!

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.: themysteryoffaith: He’s President of the United States of... →

themysteryoffaith:

He’s President of the United States of America.

He’s holding what may be the most powerful political office in the world.

He surrounds himself with atheists and suspected communists.

He spits on the Catholic Church’s beliefs as his administration tries to force Catholic and Christian business owners and organizations to pay for health insurance that will provide free abortions and contraception to employees.

 And today he uttered these words: “Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”

Your president said that.

Millions of babies have been tortured and killed by Planned Parenthood. But he said that.

He invoked our beloved God in one of the most cynical and evil statements ever made by a politician: “Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”

This is blasphemy. In a single statement, our president has mocked and regurgitated upon the entire Christian community of this country.

American Life League is responding with all the justified rage and passionate love of life that we can muster.

We will erase Planned Parenthood and this political administration from memory.

Thank you, friend. God bless you.

Faithfully,

No, this is a variation on a circle parry and a counter circle parry. Both are commonly taught in French and Italian style foil fencing.
A circle parry is when you avoid your opponents blade by moving your blade around theirs in a circle. A counter circle parry is circling around your opponents circle so that they can’t get their blade past to stab you.
When two fencers know each other well, this often happens. It becomes a game of chicken, it only ends when someone is willing to risk leaving an opening so that they can launch a different attack.
The foil version of this happens at least once a practice on my college fencing team. The only difference is that the blades are horizontal rather than diagonal.

Bolded for sadness

Friendly reminder that the man who choreographed the Star Wars saber fights is called “The Swordsmaster” for a reason.
Also, friendly reminder that MY FEELS HURT.

The heart breaks ten fold when put under heavy pressure of FEELS. 

I will always reblog this

Feels because Obi-Wan taught him that. FEELS!
