How do you properly conjugate “Reddit” in Latin? First, you need to know if the proper noun, “Reddit”, is male or female and base the conjugation of the verbs in the sentence on its gender , just as in Spanish or French. Reddito? As in “Carthago Delenda Est”? At first, it seemed easy to just use “Reddito”, since Carthage was a city and Reddit is a community of sorts. The I realized that Reddit is no longer a community, but a hostage situation. What gender to use, then? Surely the ancient Near Eastern peoples had camps where they held captives or hostages during negotiations. Hostage trading was big business for them. My father in law is a retired Latin teacher, maybe he can help me parse this out.

          I’m Catholic, but I’m also a person, hello there! If you have any questions you like to ask about Catholicism, I’d try my best to answer them.

            Which flavor of Catholic, though?

                There are hundreds of designations of Catholicism, owed to countless schisms within the Christian faith.

                  Do you really have a question about Catholicism you’d like to ask? It sounds like you’re trolling.

          I can’t perceive a situation where anyone would call me Catholic-like and I’d think it was in a good way personally.

            I was referring to the days when the Catholic Church kept the Bible in Latin and hunted down anyone who had a copy of it in a local language, burned their Bible, strangled them to death and then burned their dead body at the stake to intimidate the public. I was also referring to the fact that Catholic masses were conducted in Latin until the 1980’s.

              Yeah, they did a Behind the Bastards (I think?) that touched on that that I heard a while back. Just so transparent with it being about control of the word of God to dominate the masses.

              I didn’t know they STRANGLED people though with that.

              Coooool guuuuys….

                That’s not why the Mass was and is celebrated in Latin, the history is much more complicated than that, as it usually is when discussing languages and culture.

                  No, it really isn’t. They entire point was control. They claimed it wasn’t… but then again Russia claimed it wasn’t at war, the Nazis claimed they were “curing” Germany, etc etc.

                  You can’t trust a first party claim of reasoning without looking at it critically.

              Ok…there’s a lot to unpack there. I’m sorry you seem to have a dislike for the Catholics. I hope you will go further than wikipedia in your future research. Catholic Masses have always been celebrated in Latin and still are to this very day, along with thousands of other languages. Have a good Sunday.

                I have a dislike for the church, not the laity (churchgoers). Regarding masses, I meant that masses were conducted exclusively in Latin until the 1980’s - which makes those masses pointless for the laity, as Latin has been a dead language for centuries.

                  They’re not pointless for the laity at all. Latin is a beautiful language which a lot of traditional Catholics find more reverent than, for example, English.

                  I myself prefer a good reverent Novus Ordo mass to a Tridentine one, but if I understood Latin well I would likely prefer the Tridentine.
