[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, why don't you and the kids go with dh to church, before you decide it's so horrible??? At least try it.[/quote]

Instead, go with DH to mass on a Saturday evening, keep the kids at home, get a sitter, go to dinner afterward and discuss your concerns between the two of you. Catholicism is a big, big commitment, and a lot of work, which is one of the reasons that I left.[/quote]

I wouldn't say that it is a big commitment and a lot of work. I'm no longer Catholic but when I was I just went when I felt like it.[/quote]

+1. You people are hilarious.  The church doesn't threaten or harass you if you don't come to Mass.[/quote]

But, if you don't go to mass and follow Catholic tenents then the church doesn't consider you Catholic and you're not allowed to fully participate.  I don't get why people think they're Catholic if they don't follow the teachings of the church.[/quote]

Are you 85 years old?  In the years since Vatican II, almost all American Catholics use birth control.  More than half are I'm favor of gay marriage.  The bishops and parish priests know this.  They don't ask because if they did, they know they'd have no church left.  And as Catjolics, we don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.[/quote]
