"No, I am American" (adjective)
Should've been: Американец (noun)
Oooh
Like I said my ex was Ukrainian and she critiqued my russian so I may be brainwashed

Indeed
Well, at least your ex isnt p*lish
Although it comes very close
Well she was nationally a Belgian so
She was a baguette from the start

She was white tho
There's no "white" in europe
It's an american term to describe <:56:509492735237947422>

Had a go at explaining Eucharistic theology to a prot this morning.
Didn't do too badly, but tripped myself up a bit trying to explain how transubstantiaion isn't a symbol.
Yeah figuring out the significance of transubstantiation took me a loooong time coming from a memorial communion background
It's hard for prots to understand church words that aren't their specific dialect in general I thing
@TheImperator really late, but Space Station 13 was my jam like 7 years back. Completely forgot about it.
@SUPER MALE VITALITY™ Think the biggest hurdle is explaining to people that there are metaphysical entities in the world besides God. It was the concept of matter and substance where I lost them it seems.
Transubstantiation is definitely what i struggle with the most when explaining things to prots.
Of course that and the whole, we don't worship saints.
yeah as a Prot I see how transubstantiation is among the hardest things for Catholics to explain, primarily due to the very specific and nuanced philosophical concepts. That's why I appreciate the Orthodox approach more; the mechanics are a mystery. It avoids the risk effort and inherent risks of philosophical assumptions. Though ultimately I'm a symbolic/real presence dude.
Its a mystery, dude, chill out
I think the mechanics or at least a theory of sorts is something important.
Otherwise it becomes a "no, it isn't" "yes, it is" conversation about whether the Eucharist is a symbol or not.
