I know people profess belief in sh*t that they dont really truly believe in, like when they say the pledge of allegiance. But Im wondering if theres anybody who totally buys into all the catholic bullsh*t.
Ive seen that the people who swear by the catholic sh*t the most are old spics and wops, and even to a lesser degree, the Micks. But I look at all their outlandish dress and stories about powers and divinities and all that sh*t and I am amazed how anybody living in 21st century America can even sit through a whole mass with a straight face.
why do people keep making threads about religion on web they never go anywhere and are boring
I triple dog dare you to go in front of a Catholic mass on Easter Sunday/Xmas and say that.
I just always wondered: The actually people who RUN the church, the Pope, the Deacons and Cardinals and all that. At what point do they admit it's all lies and stories? They can't think it's real, I mean, the Pope has to know he's not extra-holy or whatever.
Do they actually willingly admit it?
This is now a thread about catholic saints and their mutant abilities.
St. Patrick is my favorite mutant, personally.
Dude, the costumes and superpowered saints are f**king awesome. I was never catholic.
And that f**king staff? Jesus christ I bet it AT LEAST doubles his mana, and gives him the ability to resurrect people.
Holy f**king sh*t.

Pretty sure it's that you get the staff when you can resurrect people, not the other way around. Like a lightsaber and jedi.
>Does anybody really believe in the whole Catholic sh*t?
Yeah, they are called Catholics.
My gf's father is catholic and he gets MAD when I tell him he's drinking wine, and eating crackers.
Catholic here.
Awful lot of butthurt in this thread - and, believe me, I know a thing or two about butthurt.
I've actually wondered this, too. Also, all this ornamentation had to COME from somewhere, and it's just not possible for it all to be the original stuff handed down. Overlooking the decay of the fabric, the miter and robes won't not fit the next Pope. Someone, somewhere, designed the Pope-mobile. Someone, somewhere has sat in their living room with their tape measure and straight-pins and sewing machine, making Pope outfits. Someone, somewhere, has had to take the Pope's measurements for new vestments. How do they clean his robes? Is there a little old Chinese dry cleaning lady somewhere responsible for his vestments? Does he have a whole walk-in closet of robes and miters, all identical, so he can rotate them, like with suits?
I'm serious. Inquiring minds want to know...
I don't see how it is any more retarded than any other religion.

Yeah, basically, except for the cleaning ladies. That's handled in-house by priests or something, I understand.

The Vatican actually has a guy in the position of CHIEF EXORCIST. This guy, Father Gabriele Amorth, HAS to know that his job is complete bullsh*t. Honestly, what does he do all day?
Most corrupt public organization in the world. Go look at the Spanish Inquisition. Same church, different Pope.

Small boys.
I like Catholics more than other christians for the simply face they are more fun to look at.

How do you know/find out? I mean, I doubt they cover this in Sunday mass...
The metaphysical details are so irrelevant. If somebody likes Catholicism's take on existence, then that's fine.

I think the most important question is if the Pope-mobile is a Ford or a Chevy.
Out of all the Christian denominations I've met, Catholics seem to be the coolest. Probably because they can literally just go to confession if they do anything bad and they are forgiven. Also they got some dope threads.

A German car? Really?

We can be forgiven for anything.
I like going to a priest in another town.
"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. It has been 23 days since my last confession. I raped and murdered a mother of three and stole some of her valuables..."
If he's the Vicar of Christ on earth, supposedly the inheritor of the position given to Saint Peter, if he is ordained and chosen by GOD to be God's representative here on earth and if he is the right hand man of the being in complete and total control of the universe......why does he still need bulletproof glass for his popemobile.

Always amazes me when people just assume it's as easy as that.

Satan's soldiers and heretics, obviously.

But he's ordained by GOD.
I mean, if God isn't gonna protect the frickin pope then who the f**k IS he gonna protect? That don't bode well for regular schlubs like you and me. And frankly, any god that can't keep his own representative from getting shot doesnt inspire a lot of confidence in his "omnipotence".

Why would God need to protect us 24/7? He gave us free-will and intelligence.

Well if thats the case why follow a god at all?
1)He's not gonna protect you from anything
2) You can never even see him
3) All the supposedly wild sh*t that he's done happened thousands of years ago when humans thought lighting was the sound of the gods bowling
4) You can pray, and that supposedly does something, but if you dont get what you pray for then its just the same as if you never prayed at all so you might as well just save yourself the time and not pray. But somehow if you do get what you pray for it was "gods will". Well, there was a 50/50 chance either way, so f he cant beat those odds theres not much that god could do for me.

First of all, heaven might have something to do with people's worshiping.
And praying isn't for stuff, it's for guidance and strength to deal with whatever the world has planned for you. It's for understanding and enlightenment.

lool, if we ever saw God it would probably shatter out minds
The only little difficulty that I have about joining the Catholic Church is that I do not think I believe in God.

I'm generally accepting of religion and beliefs, but this makes me absoloutely rage every time I hear it.
Oh, you prayed and didn't get what you wanted? God heard and gave you strength, it's up to you to use it.
Oh, so you prayed and got what you wanted?
God heard and gave you strength, he allowed you to succeed.
Oh golly, really? Thanks god, you're pretty much responsible for everything positive in my life, couldn't of done it w/o you!

Actually, I'm pretty sure God just pops in every now and then and f**ks sh*t up. He could have made that tree in the garden surrounded by a fence. He could have taken the golden calf away or...waited for Moses to hand out his rules before starting to kill people.

The 14-year old atheist inside me wants to say HURF DURF at that, but I kinda understand what you mean.
No actually I won't lie, I understand praying for patience to learn/understand and stuff but praying for understanding seems a bit silly to me

People who survive tragedies want to understand why it happened. Christianity and prayer can give them meaning.
Whether or not what they come up with through the meditation is actually the case is pretty irrelevant.

Sh*t, have you ever had to pray over all the rosary beads? I don't know if it was just me, but I'd only do the first few for real, and then I'd sit there and think about what I was going to do later, and what not. Plenty of time for enlightenment and self-reflection.

You need some sage. Catholics have had to deal with too much discrimination in this country. Our religion is the oldest form of Christianity, even older than the Eastern Orthodox Church because Constantine did not accept Christ as his savior until he was on his death bed. You are just jealous of the beauty that is Rome and the Catholic church. Enjoy your non-culture! You troll. Instead of listening to all the BS on the news and from your little 14 year old atheist or agnostic friends, go learn something.

Jesus knows more about evolution than you do.

Catholics believe that there is other life outside of this world, noob.
