hit by nuns. told that i won't be judged because i'm bisexual by the parishoners but its up to god. how god is supposed to be this kind and benevolent being but i had a lot of really, really, bad shit happen to me. this is why it is difficult for me to believe that a god exists and why the catholic church should be erased. plus a lot of their policies fit for the medieval period and not today.
I have no rational reason. Just very personal reasons, but I don't feel comfortable talking about them on a public forum, especially because people here are very much anti-religion and especially anti- catholicism. And as I said many times, atheists here are MUCH 'louder' and pushier than the religious folks.
i am not like that but i do understand. i want people to be happy. it makes me happy not believing in a religion. i have close friends who are neo-pagan, catholic, atheist, agnostic, and jewish. i have no problems with them. they are happy. if being catholic makes you happy then i wish that for you.
I think I can guess.But won't post. Anyway I don't think many people are pure anti-Catholicism or Protestantism or whatever.There wouldn't be any point to that. Maybe some are against how *doctrines* of values, customs and beliefs are used for non-spiritual purposes by some.
Ten years ago I would have picked Catholicism because of their positions on birth control and abortion, but now it would have to be Islam because of fundamentalist violence. That is a more pressing and immediate threat to human well-being.

lol. i love that page so much. i'm the microbrew / uglysweater party / music that black people don't listen to anymore / hummous / self aware hip hop reference / pea coats / the onion / music piracy whitey.
OK, I lied. Just wait until tonight, when I tell my wife we have to go back to worshiping Jesus just to prove that stupid web site wrong! She is going to be pissed. :rofl: I don't think our Motown collection should count against us, since we bought most of it back when black people still liked it.
I'm neurotic. Optimism has proven to be the best remedy. Pessimism is a self-fulfilling prophecy. That's why optimists live longer.
