I thoroughly enjoyed the look on their faces when I told them I am a Catholic. Recently converted too.

i remember one time some people, dunno what denomination it was, came-a-knocking and my front door was open, and i did not answer it and i was sitting right there playing halo, lol. i felt bad, but it the fact that i don't knock them it just i feel like my privacy is invaded when you ask me about my beliefs if i am not readily willing to share them. 6/18/2008 2:57:25 PM |

nothing gets Baptists to leave you alone like telling them you're Catholic. they know they're new at this game. ] 6/18/2008 2:57:36 PM |

I wish some baptists would come knock on my door. I'd grab a flogger, and ask them if this can wait, because I have a girl tied up in my bed, and it's really not safe to leave someone tied up and alone. 6/18/2008 2:59:18 PM |

*shrug* Not for everybody, but I can see the benefits in it. Some people really like the ritualism, and I can't deny that the sacraments are neat, and that whole penance thing sets Catholics apart. At the very least, they have the prettiest churches. But, having been raised Catholic was what sent me screaming into the arms of the Pagans, so I will admit my experience with Catholicism was a little...lacking. 6/18/2008 3:01:29 PM |

that's like asking somebody why they like being baptist or lutheran. it's my faith- not much more to it than that (there really shouldn't be much more than that imo) 6/18/2008 3:02:56 PM |

^^^thats my point. if you believe in god then you are all christians, so denomination is just to exclude yourself. i am not hating just saying denominations really have never made any sense to me.

different denominations do have differing beliefs. yea- we all think Christ is the Lord. But there's more to it than that. Also, a lot of the practices are different. (ie: Holy Communion) 6/18/2008 3:05:58 PM |
