Recently I've been so addicted to scrolling, social media, and just the digital vanity as a whole; I've neglected my prayer life, I've put off confession, and hence I've put off daily Mass. It's been incredibly difficult to try and break this habit, and I don't know what to do. Do you have any advice?

I treat my life as a job application for Heaven. My wife and I try to totally detach from the material world and focus on what comes next. Whatever God has in store for us, we want to be prepared. We do try to live as if our life is a job application for what comes next in Heaven. Is that the wrong mindset?

In my opinion, even if we're wrong, we are still serving our Lord while on earth.

In Acts 2 the end times are described in verse 21, 'and it shall come to pass that whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved' Why is anything other than calling on the name of Lord needed to be saved?

I watched a Catholic podcast yesterday that featured two prominent priests, and both of them believed that Halloween is "the devil's favorite holiday". When I scrolled down to the comments section, many seemed to be in agreement, and I just don't get it. Halloween was a historically Catholic holiday, and its name is short for "All Hallows Eve". Why do so many Catholic personalities seemingly have an agenda against it?
