I'm just trying to get laid

What did you do to become moral? If you had a change of heart about something but didn't actually change any behavior then you're just virtue signaling.

I'm trying to be a good Catholic and lead a saintly life. It's hard, but that doesn't stop me from trying.

>>8938186
>then you're just virtue signaling

Shut the fuck up, Redditor.

>>8938186
>stopped eating animals products
>stopped having sex
>stopped watching porn
>stopped smoking
>stopped drinking
>stopped using drugs

>>8938201
Watch out for spicy milk.

>>8938204
What is this business?

>>8938187
>I'm trying to be a good Catholic and lead a saintly life.
What does that entail? List the work someone must do to be called a good Catholic. How are saints made, what tasks must they complete?
>>8938235
You seem to have a weak constitution if you must avoid all vices, something as mild as milk might poison you.

>>8938243
Saints obey the teachings of Christ, and by extension, the teachings of the Church. They follow Christ to whatever end, even if it means inconvenience, imprisonment, or death.

>>8938173
I tried to rid my life of hardcore (boy-girl) pornography yet somehow ended up watching cumshot compilations everyday so far.

>>8938294
What makes them different from good Catholics?

Can you give me a condensed or sampled version of the teachings of Christ, how are they different from the Church doctrine?

>>8938303
Is what you were trying to do good? Are you better off after failing?

>>8938313
No, I am worse off. My confidence in my ability to make positive changes in my life is completely destroyed.

>>8938326
How is getting rid of your porn a positive change?

>>8938180
This desu
It's not going great though

>>8938336
Watching pornography is immoral.

>>8938347
Why is watching pornography immoral? What makes you sure that watching pornography isn't more moral than not watching porn?

Just a reminder that if you watch porn and masturbate regularly you are enslaved to your dick.

>>8938173
Morality is following the status quo and letting society decide how you live your life.

>>8938313
The teachings of Christ are actually easier to find, they're just what's in the Gospels, and the New Testament more broadly, since that's where Jesus' stuff is recorded.

Church doctrine is what happens when you take the teachings of Christ, and all of Scripture, really, and use reason and logic to extrapolate additional teachings from them. For example, the doctrine of the Trinity was formed by logically considering the three "entities" that seem to appear in Scripture, all claiming to be God, but also logically considering that according to Judaism, and Christianity, there is only one God.

In theory, there IS no difference between a saint and a good Catholic. All Catholics are called to be saints, whether they are lay people or clergy, married or single. And anyone can be a saint if they live according to the teachings of Christ and the Church. However, frankly, some people just don't. A lot of people don't. Some do, but not as well as others. The ones that live as good Catholics the best of all eventually become saints, and are acknowledged as such after their deaths.

this year is the year nietzsche finally clicked on me
fuck moral

>>8938357
The only slave to dick is you, you probably need to lock yours in a cage because then you don't need to address your strange sexual preferences.

Tell my why porn is bad and why I should not masturbate while watching it.

>>8938382
I never said porn was immoral, that was a different anon.

>>8938382
Also go fuck yourself, that joke was lame as shit.

BASTARDS

>>8938339
Same lol

>>8938413
Then if it isn't immoral why shouldn't I use it?

>tfw pleasing God every day
feels good, man

Are you boys teenagers?

I can't imagine still being enthralled by pussy in your twenties.

>>8938201
>sex, porn, smoking, drugs
if you're the only one affected, why give it up?

>>8938423
Because it is highly addictive one of many things that you would be better off cutting out of your everyday schedule.
Passions enslave most people and masturbation and porn are among the most common

>>8938433
Nope I'm in my mid twenties
I don't even have that high of a libido, I just don't get laid that much

>>8938433
Literally kissless virgins

>>8938423
porn turns you into a cuck. you're being conditioned to find it arousing when some other man fucks a woman you find desirable.

>>8938438
>Passions enslave you
If you can't live in harmony with your passions then you need to grow up. Denying yourself is the behavior of someone who is a slave to his passions,you're using energy to suppress your desires when you indulge them and allow yourself to recharge.

>>8938434
>sex
Almost all of the time one of the participants is going to get hurt.
>porn
All of the time some dumb slut gets hurt.
>smoking
Cancer.
>drugs
Whole infrastructure of people suffering for a little dopamine bump, pure degeneracy.

>>8938201
none of that makes you moral, except maybe animals.

>>8938486
What does make a person moral according to you?

>>8938489
someone who helps others.

>>8938481
>Almost all of the time one of the participants is going to get hurt.
What the fuck are you talking about?
>All of the time some dumb slut gets hurt.
Again, what the fuck are you talking about?
>Whole infrastructure of people suffering for a little dopamine bump, pure degeneracy.
And that pure 'enlightening' jolt you get after every session of online shaming is any different.

>>8938433
I'm 23. Mostly just wanna know how it feels, but also wouldn't mind if it could be with someone I actually cared about.

>>8938502
>What the fuck are you talking about?
If you're glorious women will be heartbroken. If you're shit you will be the hurt one. There is no winning.
>Again, what the fuck are you talking about?
People in porn are broken people, they're not happy.
>And that pure 'enlightening' jolt you get after every session of online shaming is any different.
I'm just trying to help.

>>8938533
>If you're glorious women will be heartbroken. If you're shit you will be the hurt one. There is no winning.
How delusional, or toxic, do you need to be to believe this?
>People in porn are broken people, they're not happy.
People doing other things can be just as broken. In fact, you might be fucked up based on your other responses. How do you know that everyone involved in porn is unhappy? To some it's just a job and after shooting they go home and act similar to you.

>>8938555
>How delusional, or toxic, do you need to be to believe this?
You just need to have enough experience living.

>People doing other things can be just as broken. In fact, you might be fucked up based on your other responses. How do you know that everyone involved in porn is unhappy? To some it's just a job and after shooting they go home and act similar to you.
Sure, a lot of people are broken. But people in porn are broken more often than most.

>>8938201
i decided to stop watching porn and just fap with my imagination
today i caught myself out of control going to /b/ and torrenting porn
its bizarre, i don't have will power to delete my porn folders, my mind keep telling me i shouldn't stop doing it...

>>8938564
>Sure, a lot of people are broken. But people in porn are broken more often than most.
Most people are not broken. You might be broken but don't project your flaws onto most of the population.
>You just need to have enough experience living.
I get the impression that you make people uncomfortable when you talk to them.

>>8938453
Yeah anon, I'm sure you're great at that.
>pro tip: you certainly arent

>>8938574
Most people are definitely broken, just in different ways and at varying degrees.

>>8938622
How do you know? Is it just a feeling you have? Maybe you are projecting, how could you tell?
>>8938616
How do you know that I'm not?

>>8938635
Do you think you're some ubermensch?
If you talk to people it becomes evident that nearly everyone has incredibly deep insecurities and gnawing problems/regrets.
You are on 4chan, you're probably worse than the average person.

>>8938173

Me

>>8938659
>Do you think you're some ubermensch?
Not at all, I'm just a simple person who gets their needs met. I have a lot of acquaintances and most seem happy, if often stressed. There aren't two categories of people, like winners and losers, most of the population is somewhere in the middle.
>If you talk to people it becomes evident that nearly everyone has incredibly deep insecurities and gnawing problems/regrets.
While many are insecure they have little reason to be, their problems are mostly non-existent but the world we live in promotes competitiveness and misery over happiness so they often feel inadequate. It sounds like you project your own problems onto others, you might need help.
>You are on 4chan, you're probably worse than the average person.
4chan is just a method for communication. I'm on here talking to people and not trying to trick them into thinking they are miserable.

>>8938533
>People in porn are broken people, they're not happy.
How do you know? Did you ask them all? Have you literally been all of them?

>tfw moralfag used to be an insult on 4chan
