But what that comes down to is you're saying "it's a tough choice", and perhaps so. But what do you think Jesus would care more about, sucking it up and finding a faith that is a little unfamiliar (maybe a little uncomfortable at first, not so "homey" as you're accustomed to) in which to worship him? OR, stick with the child rapists because, well, that's the group you belong to and you ain't gonna change no matter WHAT happens. I think the choice is clear, myself.
Originally Posted By wahooskipper X, I thought you said you were Catholic. At what point in your life did you find a Catholic service to be "homey"? I think Jesus is going to care that I am not a child rapist though I have sinned. I think he will care that I tried to live a good life, though at times I faltered. I think he will care that I stuck by him even in the face of adversity and even during my own struggles with trying to understand why he would let bad things happen to good people.
Originally Posted By Mr X I just meant comfortable because you grew up with it or whatever. I've been to other Christian services, and none felt quite "the same" as the one I grew up with (though for the most part it's all horribly boring ). That's all I was driving at.

Originally Posted By Mr X I did say "nearly".

By and large though, I find myself checking my watch and thinking about after-service pancakes.

Originally Posted By Labuda "<--- still finds nearly all Church services, regardless of denomination, to be horribly boring " "a few that I would call "beautiful" (some involving some incredible music)" Yeah, music is the best part of church for me. One of my FAVORITE musicals is "Crowns" - a play about African-American women and the hats they wear to church. That music - oooooooooo! I'm getting goose bumps just thinking about it! Good stuff!
