This guy is a borderline heretic
Sex is so good and so important itโs protected within the sacrament of marriage. Itโs so beautiful itโs worthy of a covenant to protect it from misuse and misapplication. This guy is just seething because he couldnโt get laid if he tried. Now Iโm not saying โHave sex randomlyโ, but manโฆ. sex is good and if you deny that - and call it disgusting even - youโre saying the 8th sacrament which God ordained to be the outward sign of the inward grace of two becoming one flesh is is disgusting, well, youโre quite something, but you ainโt Catholic.

DECEMBER 13 โ ST. LUCY, VIRGIN, MARTYR
THE mother of St. Lucy suffered four years from an issue of blood, and the help of man failed. St. Lucy reminded her mother that a woman in the Gospel had been healed of the same disorder. "St. Agatha," she said, " stands ever in the sight of Him for whom she died. Only touch her sepulchre with faith, and you will be healed." They spent the night praying by the tomb, till, overcome by weariness, both fell asleep.

DECEMBER 13 โ ST. LUCY, VIRGIN, MARTYR
St. Agatha appeared in vision to St. Lucy, and calling her sister, foretold her mother's recovery and her own martyrdom. That instant the cure was effected; and in her gratitude the mother allowed her daughter to distribute her wealth among the poor, and consecrate her virginity to Christ. A young man to whom she had been promised in marriage, accused her as a Christian to the heathen; but Our Lord, by a special miracle, saved from outrage this virgin whom He had chosen for His own. The fire kindled around her did her no hurt. Then the sword was plunged into her heart, and the promise made at the tomb of St. Agatha was fulfilled.
REFLECTION. โ The Saints had to bear sufferings and temptations greater far than yours. How did they overcome them? By the love of Christ. Nourish this pure love by meditating on the mysteries of Christ's life; and, above all, by devotion to the Holy Eucharist, which is the antidote against sin and the pledge of eternal life.

St. Lucy, pray for us.

DECEMBER 17: THE MONK KING OF THE BRETONS
Saint Judicael of Brittany
Married Layperson and Monk
Died: 658
---
He was a married layperson who was king of the Bretons. He was a prince who chose to become a monk even if he was the heir of his father. But when his brother died, he agreed to leave the monastery and take the throne. He ruled wisely, restoring peace between the Bretons and the Franks. He later abdicated from his throne, left the monarchy to one of his brothers, and chose to spend his last years as a monk again.

Lying may be one of the worst sins, since, the only title which Christ gives Satan is โThe father of liesโ. Therefore, to commit a lie is to say โGod who is Truth, is not my father, since (as God himself as Christ has said, โa son can only do what he has learnt from his fatherโ), I am the son of the father of lies.โ by doing so, we are with our actions, rejecting the paternity of God and vowing ourselves to Satan: we are casting a vote that we are โchildren of the devilโ and in so doing, casting our souls into hell.
