      I was an altar boy and regularly assisted Fr. Parks with the sacrament, and yeah, it was really REALLY hard to keep a straight face when he ate the giant prop host after handing out the Necco size communion wafers to the rubes. Sounded like he was chewing a mouthful of gravel. And winning.

      The field of psychology is very new, so for the longest time, spiritual leaders were seen as the resident mental health expert. Confession is basically a mini therapy session with some God sprinkled in. It's why hospitals and the military still have chaplains. In fact, chaplains are different from priests in that their job is to help everyone regardless of spiritual beliefs (or none). Chaplains usually learn about the spiritual practices of many faiths so that they can be sensitive and helpful, because their job is not to preach, but to offer a nonjudgmental space for spiritual healing.
      Long tangent, but I think that many priests, rabbis, imams, etc. view their role in a similar way. Rather than proclaim that they have found the correct interpretation and command that you follow, they have simply found the spiritual path that speaks to or works for them, and they felt a calling to help others through this spiritual lens. While they have their own bias, it is more important that people come away from their meetings with better mental and spiritual health than they went in, regardless of the specifics. The priest who isn't sure that there is a God might be having a crisis of faith, or they might realized that their faith is not about being radically convinced of their particular religious sect (which is statistically improbable), but simply they way they have chosen to walk a spiritual life.
      TLDR; To some, faith is less about God and their particulars, and more about a foray into the metaphysical and learning how to heal others beyond the nuts and bolts of biology. This priest knew that Josh wasn't Catholic and maybe didn't believe in God at all, so he brought his spiritual understanding of life to Josh's level. To simply chastise Josh about making God unhappy would be unhelpful and a waste of time.

      ​@@maryrosekent8223 If they had done their homework, they should've said something like "Faith isn't perfect knowledge. It's placing your hope on God". Something like that.
      Basically, "faith" to Mormons isn't about knowing God is there. It's about trusting his teachings enough to follow through with it, because you believe that living like this will ultimately be for your good.
      The way I personally think of it, if you met Jesus on the street and was the type of person who would be friends with him, then you're a faithful person. Living a "sinful" life warps your character in a way that makes you and God incompatible.
      A lot of our missionaries go out completely unprepared to talk to strangers about this stuff. I fumbled or couldn't answer questions I should've known because I was too nervous. Plus, a lot of the time, people we talk to ask questions we hadn't considered before, so we have to go home and look into it.
      Mormons usually see going on a mission half as a character building exercise and an act of faith. We don't really think people should be converted to our faith because the missionaries were very eloquent or well spoken. We tend to hold the belief that God will personally take care of it, and that we're there to just be there when we're needed. The only people I ever baptized were people who already wanted to join a church or were already looking for God in their own way. If you're living the right way, you'll be in the right place and the right time.

    • @maikkoh7458
      @maikkoh7458 Місяць тому +2

      @maryrosekent8223 The correct answer is more on the lines of "Since I believe that God lives and loves you and me, my faith becomes a power that magnifies my righteous efforts. The more effort I give, the stronger my faith is. Through faith in Jesus, I can overcome all things."
      The question "How can I also know for sure?" is easier to answer.
      In contrast, @LLJVBass's pivot question is more challenging for 18-21-year-olds because it can derail the intended conversation and introduce a potentially hostile tone to the interaction.

    My dude!!! If there's any comedian putting out this volume of new content at this rate, at this quality, I am totally unaware. I've said before I wouldn't put upon you comparisons to some legendary comedians that have come before, and I will hold to that. But! You are one of the most incisive, biting, empathetic, kind, and truthful artists I've seen in my lifetime - and I'm old by some measures. Your ability to entertain and critique, with truthfulness, kindness, and without shouting, does so much more to bring thoughtful people together. I continue to be in awe. Thanks for all you do, your art, your work, and technique. Cheers!

    It's funny how priests and rabbis and similar roles are often much more comfortable discussing their doubts than their flock. I think part of it is them trying to build a rapport with you, but beyond that they've already demonstrated their devotion and have no one to convince of anything and are able to just speak their mind freely.

      ​@@tatianapavel9858It's amazing how cultural bias affects our perspective. When I read your initial post, I'm thinking "how cool is that, a church with a planetarium. I'd go there!" as if it was an ingenious combination of the two. Because, as Josh rightly points out, here in the US there's nothing off limits when it comes to churches and making money.
      However, when I read your response, oof, did that hit hard. I'm old enough to remember The Wall coming down and the things that came before. Now, there are generations, aka my kids, that don't have an understanding of how things were in your country and others. Even myself, since I didn't live there, have a much different perspective than someone who lived through those times.
      I'm glad you shared this unique experience. It really gave me a profound reminder of history and our shared humanity.
      Note: as you can gather from the comment you replied to, planetariums here often hosted other creative ventures, such as light shows and movies projected on the domed ceiling.
