[quote=Anonymous]There's nothing wrong with going to church if you're still discerning.  There are so many Catholic teachings that of course you may not even have an opinion on some of them!  I struggle with some of the teachings, but I value the Church's opinion so I don't just accept my ideas outright over theirs without a lot of prayer.

If you believe in the Eucharist it really doesn't make sense to just go to another church, since that's the whole idea of Mass.

Try going to Confession and telling the priest your struggles.  I always get good, kind advice there.

And for those of you who have had bad experiences at a Catholic Church, remember that no one is perfect, and any priest or faithful Catholic will tell you that it's a struggle.  If you're given medicine but don't take it correctly, do you blame the medicine?

Do you want to go to church for feel-good socialization, or do you want to participate in the true Church that Jesus founded and passed down to us?  Are you looking for truth, or acceptance?    [/quote]
