@Corinthian was that you? I think you could unironically cause a lot of seethe on reddit baiting them by just being yourself.
What is nuclear family? It's an industrial bullshit.Raise a joint family if you are so called trad.
There's no such thing as a nuclear family. Even the ads they posted in the 50s and 60s the entire families looked dead inside.
"This will work if we all conform to this! Put that frickin smile on Timmy, we're headed to church to love everyone except those colored people cuz that's what I think my God wants and it's good person stuff"
Edit: not 50s and 60s. Need fact check but before then maybe 20s to 50s? Whatever the idea was drilled into my dad's head but he is 72
What exactly redditors want when they about the nuclear family?
They want grandma and grandpa near to help along uncles? Sounds great but how is that in conflict with the "nuclear family" or why does it make the nuclear family bad?
Or do they mean "the new quirky friends I made and my polyamorous partners are le family"
The idea of a 'nuclear family' being the end all be all of social organization is such a ridiculous idea to have if you have any historical knowledge or context at all.
There are literally countless examples of people and cultures throughout history with vastly different family dynamics, societies where children are raised communally or with multiple sets of parents were a REGULARITY in the ancient world. As a matter of well documented historic fact, the concept of a 'Nuclear Family' has literally only existed since the 1920's. The human race has been surviving without the concept of a nuclear family for vastly longer than it has.
What does "raised communally" even means? The extended families of the old days closely knitted and distrustful, where do they get that communally bullshit? And there were still parents and children, and the parents always did most of the work of raising them. Why so much anger?
Reddit is crawling with these churchy types complaining about promiscuity or "porn addiction" nonstop, it's so weird.
NOOOOO THERE'S NO PORN ADDICTION
People like this are ridiculous.
It's like they can't decide if they want to be Utilitarian or hardcore Catholic Republic.
Insisting that the only "good" someone can do is making progress towards the betterment of society in itself is fricking stupid; if I save a dying kid am I a bad person because that didn't contribute towards the progress of my society? If I'm gay am I bad person because I can't produce more kids for the progression of society?
It's such a stupid and often self contradictory philosophy.
!nooticers reminder most /r/gatekeeping users are likely foids judging by their stemcel aversion and the fact most of them are psychology majors.

you're not a bad person for being gay
you're a bad person for not shoving it deep down, marrying a foid, and having kids anyway
but not everyone is or has to be a totally 'good' person
the redditor can't accept that.
he must be a good person, so he just changes his worldview and beliefs till he finds a new definition of good that fits his behavior, instead of the other way around

You really think they're shopping for a good that commends them rather than naturally taking that lived experience and finding a worldview that makes sense within it?

but if you aren't bettering society what are you?
you can be 'good' by your own definition you make up but if you aren't affecting anyone else what use is that
its everyone else that defines you as good or not
the redditor isn't content with living his own miserable life
everyone else must know and agree that he's good.
in that context you don't get to set the definition of good
unless of course you can convince enough ppl to agree
this whole thing is the dregs of society getting uppity and demanding they be equal to firefighters, doctors, servicemen, etc.
by arguing the things everyone agrees are bad are actually good and the good things meaningless

That's where you're wrong. I will give strags relationship advice from a position of complete ignorance and you can't stop me. I'll retrain as a Catholic priest and I'll tell them that Jesus wants them to take as many bulls as they can find.

NGL this is like the worst option for everyone involved. Leads to a miserable relationship which provides a warped veiw of love for kids. If you are gonna do the trad cath "erm being gay isnt wrong but acting on it is!" argument then being a highly productive celibate which serves your community is better then mere procreation and trapping a woman and children in a loveless marriage.

marriage is about duty and commitment. love is a 19st century invention
we are meant to sacrifice for our children. to sacrifice for society at large.
part of that duty is being a good hustbnad/wife even if you've lost or never had that 'spark'
that includes not having a miserable relationship and providing a proper childhood for your kids
maybe that's extreme, but so is this modern 'worship of the self' culture
where we just do whatever the frick we want all the time, give and concede nothing, and hope things work out
will a generation of onlyfans moms provide a clear view of love to they kids? they sure felt that spark with chad/tyrone.

Let's be honest, most of the redditors we mock (r/antinatalism posters) would make terrible parents, so it's a relief they're not procreating.

When we were in charge the cuteandvalid's made great art or translated obscure texts in the library of a monastery. I think that the societal reinforcement that homosexual inclinations are your "identity" and fixed/immutable have not been friendly to would-be celibate Christians.
If you read the John Jay report from Hopkins that the USCCB published you can actually track the explosion in the rate of child abuse with the rise of the post-60s free love and gay rights movements.

I don't think you want to go into the "gays made great priests" territory ngl

Not all monks are priests and I said monastery. Presently men with a history of homosexual behavior are not accepted to enter into the priesthood due to the pederasty scandals of the 20th century, and I'm not sure that will be lifted in our lifetime.
Catholics have to date not conceded that people even can be "gay" the way you're saying, though. We all have sinful desires but that doesn't define us, our behaviors and inherent dignity having been made in the image of God do.

Theres really no such thing as a good enough person aside from Jesus Christ. CHRIST did tell us to sin no more and to repent of our sins yet he would forgive us if we're truly remorseful. How can one be repentent if theyre fantisizing about s*x or openly endorsing or bragging about their previous promiscuity? We mock God with our pride
