I'm a survivor. Since I can't have a tshirt, a mug will suffice.

If you too want to proclaim to the world that you've survived the back-asswardness of some of the Church's dogma, feel free to pick up one of these little guys. I promise I won't tell your mother ;)

Haha! This is great!

Then again, I don't think I would be half as open-minded as I am today if it weren't for my rejection of the Catholic Church... they gave me the model of what NOT to do.

Different-strokes, I feel for you, and I will offer up a novena for you.

Sorry you had such a lousy experience! When you revert, try to find a parish with a priest who actually teaches the real dogma of the Church.

"There are not over a hundred people...who hate the Roman Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church."
-Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

well that is NOT very nice...I love being Catholic! I have looked into things and I agree with everything it teaches! I went to a way traditional parish for a long time and absolutely loved it! I go to a more modern parish now and still miss my old parish :( but I can live in this one too. I'm beginning to see that modern is always bad...you shouldn't flame any religion, and I don't meen just Catholic or Christian. That's know way to get people to see your opinion! The more precious something is to a person the more damage you do by flaming it! My Catholic faith is all I have. I'm not going to get into the woes of my life because you'd probably die of bordom. Even if you think your just 'experssing yourself' you still need to think of how it will hurt other people. I prefer bells and smells mass of my own personal choice even though now I'm begining to get used to modern stuff I'd go back to traditional if I could.

No thanks. I love the Catholic Church :clap:. Sorry things didn't work out for you, but don't you think that calling their beliefs "back-asswardness" is a bit harsh? Doesn't that say something rather negative about the millions of men, women and children around the world who believe that dogma? You make it sound like Catholicism is a disease to be recovering from.

Not at all.

Yeah. Maybe they ought to think about that before committing to believing in said dogma.

You make it sound like Catholicism is a disease to be recovering from.

Disease, abuse, brainwashing ... you name it, it's still something to be cured of.
