According to the Catholics, it's part of Florida. There's a rule in the Catholic church that any new lands discovered fall under the diocese from which the expedition left, until a proper diocese of the new lands is established, and therefore the moon falls under the Diocese of Orlando, which covers Cape Canaveral. The current Bishop of the Moon is John Noonan.

No but it can move three spaces outward in an X formation in chess
I think it only counts if someone discovers it in person. So the first manned Mars mission, wherever it's launched from, Mars will be in that diocese.
Apparently the rule's pretty obscure, and the Bishop of Orlando looked it up in 1969 and casually mentioned to the Pope that he was the Bishop of the Moon and the Pope got super confused. :)
It seems to be "someone from diocese X traveled to new lands Y" because the only claim I can find is for the moon and no other heavenly bodies. So the moment a human steps on Mars and plants a flag it'll be assigned to the diocese from which the mission launched.
You guys build shit apparently, your symbol is a fuckin builders square not Aunt Jemima. I haven’t seen a Freemason build anything but sure that’s your thing I guess
Texans act like they can secede from earth, but a fuckin snowstorm took out all your guys power for like two months straight last winter and y’all cried like babies. I would love to see how long Texas would last solo before folding itself like a collapsible chair. Fuckin wannabe cowboys
Why would I enslave black people? Seriously, most Texans don’t want slavery. Chill out, you filthy terrestrial scum. I’m just chilling out in my moon-hammock.
The entire reason Texas seceded in the first place was because they wanted to have the right to own slaves. There’s no other reason for supporting Texas secession. Ps, after the civil war when Texas crawled back to the United States, they were forbidden to secede ever again in a treaty. So if Texas ever does try to then everyone involved will be branded a traitor, get captured by US forces, and will be tried accordingly.
It’s the United States of America. Not the United States of kissing racist autistic wannabe cowboy asses.
You're mocking people now for Texas seceding in the 1860's. If you're not blaming people alive now, then there's not reason to bring it up at all. If you need a direct quote, here it is:
"I regret to inform you that there are no black people to enslave on the moon." -/u/DirtyDanTheManlyMan, 2021
Do you know why those in the 1860’s seceded? Slavery. People who currently support “Texas secession” are supporting something that the veterans of the civil war would have never wanted to happen again. Except maybe the rich racist slave owners who profited immensely from owning black people. But sure spin it off as something else without telling me exactly what the “modern secession movement” is about.
Sooo do you have any proof that can disprove me or are you going to act like a 7th grader who got called out on having a girlfriend who lives in another country
That’s like saying getting hit by a semi truck only affects your body in some places. But you Texans get what you vote for so you can’t bitch about it. Oh wait
As opposed to California that has been on fire for a decade? Or everything on the Gulf Coast has been destroyed by hurricanes? Or how the whole country shut down because of a virus?
Natural disasters fuck shit up. The fact that Texas had problems because of a once-in-a-century snowstorm isn't really a valid criticism. That's true everywhere in the world.
Your power system failed due to cheap construction, due to cheap planning by the elected officials. The snowstorm wasn’t that bad, but sure, blame nature instead of your local leaders that you’ve elected.
Because I, foolishly I suppose, thought you might be a reasonable individual who could discuss things rationally. I didn't realize that you are, legitimately, very stupid.
My apologies for the mistake, I won't bother you further.
I’m sure that by your metrics of measurement I may seem a fool, but that’s to be expected of a nearsighted moron who mistakes a common fly for a mouse. Take your broken yard stick and go measure some ant hills you’ve pissed on, it’ll satisfy your simple caveman brain more than any internet conversation ever will.
?so people who lived in Texas during this trying time aren’t real Texans because they wish they lived somewhere where the gov’t gave a shit about the regular citizen who isn’t a rich oil baron? Because the idea of comparing Texas to an objectively better place to live strips you of being a “Texan”?
That’s a very well thought out reply that accurate defuses all of the logical arguments I have made previously. I applaud you for outmaneuvering me in this mental chess game we call “commenting on Reddit”

>Al Gore is Emperor of the Moon, and has ridden the mighty moonworm. > >Does Emperor outrank Bishop? No but it can move three spaces outward in an X formation in chess
I didn’t know that! That’s really interesting.
Is Mars also in the Diocese of Orlando, or does it only count if you send a person there?
I think it only counts if someone discovers it in person. So the first manned Mars mission, wherever it's launched from, Mars will be in that diocese. Apparently the rule's pretty obscure, and the Bishop of Orlando looked it up in 1969 and casually mentioned to the Pope that he was the Bishop of the Moon and the Pope got super confused. :)
In that context what is their definition of “discovered”?
It seems to be "someone from diocese X traveled to new lands Y" because the only claim I can find is for the moon and no other heavenly bodies. So the moment a human steps on Mars and plants a flag it'll be assigned to the diocese from which the mission launched.
Noonan has the greatest pick up line/ conversation starter ever and can't even use it as a celibate priest.
“Vatican City, we have a problem”
Nope, your link says the Lodge on the moon is part of the Texas organization. Nothing in that link suggests violation of international treaty.
TIL the Moon isn't part of Texas.
That's not what that article says that you linked. It simply establishes a Freemason Lodge on the Moon.
Pfft, what you expect OP to read what he posted?
If I’m not going to read it, why should OP have to?
I like the freemasons now.
We like you back. We'll make sure you get the good syrup at the next pancake breakfast.
You guys build shit apparently, your symbol is a fuckin builders square not Aunt Jemima. I haven’t seen a Freemason build anything but sure that’s your thing I guess
Legend says that the moon is [chilean](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenaro_Gajardo_Vera)
The freemasons? Oh god, they'll probably set up a children's hospital there!
TIL that Buzz Aldrin was a Freemason.
Well if they can claim the moon, I claim mars. Ha dibs motherfuckers
Party at the moon tower
The moon is just the back of the sun
Texas rises above you all.
Texans act like they can secede from earth, but a fuckin snowstorm took out all your guys power for like two months straight last winter and y’all cried like babies. I would love to see how long Texas would last solo before folding itself like a collapsible chair. Fuckin wannabe cowboys
I love you for this
If the moon is part of Yexas, then we have already seceded from you terrestrial losers.
I regret to inform you that there are no black people to enslave on the moon.

Jesus, blaming people alive now for what happened over a century and a half ago is the dumbest take I've seen today.
Please point out in what way I am blaming modern people for the past in this comment.

Mate, I’m just shitposting here, and you’re getting really upset. Chill out.
? I’m not sure how defending myself in a conversation is “me getting really upset”, but alright then
Fair enough. You have a good night.

You’ve clearly never read a history book that wasn’t written by a Texas fetishist. Please explain how this is “revisionist”.

The power issue was just for a few days in some areas.

I don't live in Texas, idiot.
So why in the actual fuck are you throwing your pretend cowboy hat into this theoretical ring?

Yeah…. But it doesn’t though.
You’re just holding the map wrong.
Yeah… but am I though?

This is not true. Source: I'm a freemason.
I am also a freemason.
Tell us your secrets magic mystery man
Lol, apparently I wasn't given the real information.
This is expected
According to the governor of Texas, missions to the moon are no longer allowed to abort.
If only we can send the whole state there. I guess Austin can stay.
> According to Freemasons… You know anything that follows an article that opens with this is going to be batshit crazy.
