I haven't been to church in about 14 years. The sermons disgust me too. I even get pissed going to religious weddings. BUT, I was going through some shit a few months ago and didn't really have anywhere else to turn. Kinda felt like I hit rock bottom. So I said fuck it and went to confession. I ended up talking to a retired priest, and told him I believe in a god, but don't really buy into any kind of religion. The dude actually gave me some really good, non-religious, down to earth advice and perspective.

I think if you can get past the brainwashing, lets-convert-everyone attitude, and strip away all the bullshit, there is some benefit to talking to someone about religion. I'm still not going to church, I still think the bible and christianity are bullshit, but talking to a good priest really changed my perspective on things and gave me a tiny bit more respect for the people who are going for the right reasons.

If I want to hear lies and give money away, there are other causes I would much rather support first.

No disrespect to any of you church going people, but those that live in a world based on faith alone are crazy in my opinion.

Religion is about fear. Those that fear something will conform....

What ya'll think of this?

If you're not expanding you're shrinking. That's the point behind conversions, missionaries, and evangelizing.

 

[BO$$]

I GO SUM TIMES N I THINK MY CHURCH IS ABOUT GIVING. I EVEN WATCH EWTN SUM TIMEZ N IT AIN'T LIKE THOSE MILLIONAIRE PASTORS.

I go to church. I am Catholic.

I don't let a pastor or people on a message board sway my beliefs. Stay strong in what you believe, and always RESPECT other people's beliefs.

Peace

I went to church my whole life til maybe 8 or 9 years ago, & yes the asking for money is overboard.

have faith, believe in what you want to believe in, but this whole "take out a second mortgage on your home so we can build another building" is fucking nonsense.

made me sick to my stomach when they put my mom on the spot to do some shit like that, cause my mom isnt even a home owner... way to throw out the guilt to us poor folk.

meanwhile, the ways of the world, & worldy pastors furthering their financial agenda does not detour me from having my own personal belief system. & also, how you gonna be a pastor driving a higher priced car that anyone in your congregation?... kids going to Princeton & Harvard. FUCK YOU!

Yup I agree 100% - Plus being Sicilian Church is kinda spooky no singing & fun going on . More like chanting & trying to forgive yourself .

NEVER BEEN IN A CHURCH SINCE I WAS A YOUNG BUL

Catholic church: sit neal stand, sit neal stand chant, sit neal stand sit neal stand chant.

Protestant church: Eat, sing, pray, band plays, sing, pray, sermon, sing, band, go home & watch football. LOL
