As a Catholic, I’ve pondered this question for years until today. I got an email from church that everyone must got to Mass on Sunday and Monday and that Sunday evening Mass (Christmas Eve) didn’t “count” for both.

For Christ’s sake. It’s pomp and circumstance that partially lead to the reformation and is why the church is waning in the 1st world West.


CSB, Rant over.

I don't hate Catholics. I just wonder why some of them prefer little boy penis over the most wonderful hole known to man.

your subject-title is stupid. More accurately should say "Why do SOME Christians have issues with Catholics?"

I mean, don't go to church twice if you don't want to. But don't come crying to me when you end up in hell.

I think pedophiles can be found across all religions.

When discussing that last weekend our priest said if you've got a problem, call the Vatican.

My Mom certainly can rub Christians the wrong way, with her mantra of "Catholicism is the one, true religion". I know that hearing that will piss of many a Baptist and Protestant.

I had a priest tell me that once. I told him the same thing when he asked why we hadn’t sent in our weekly donation for 4 months.

Christ was against large organized religion. He had a huge rant about it at Temple and kicked tables over. The CC is just the modern day version of the Jewish faith/law.

ETA:

That and the CC basically infiltrated the governments in Europe, made us donated to them, follow their laws or we would be killed and barred from heaven. Sounds silly now, but people took that serious back in the day.

First off Catholics are Christians. Weird a catholic would say otherwise. Every denomination classifies Catholics as such.

I’m a Christian and I feel as though Catholics are misguided. The Catholic Church is corrupt and you can see why they do certain things($). Every church has its faults, I just feel like Catholic Church are money hungry.

Also, they try to make religion way more political than it is. They support the party that supports abortion. That makes me have zero respect for them. If a Catholic is a conservative he is directly defying 99 percent of the high ups in the Catholic Church. I once had a Catholic priest tell me he didn’t believe any real Christian could be a Republican. That’s when I realized it wasn’t the place for me.

Psychologically, this is somewhat interesting.

You’ve allowed the church to instill guilt in you, and that’s caused some anger within you at the church. However, you’ve been trained that anger towards the church is wrong, so you passive-aggressively transferred that anger to all Christians.

Own your feelings.
