I haven't gone to a regular Sunday mass since I was 20 years old and she knows it's futile to ask me about God but she still feels it's her duty.  |
I go to church with my mother two or three times per year and we usually have brunch afterward. I wish my mother were Catholic, but no, she is evangelical protestant so I not only get called a heathen for not going to church, but I'm going to allegedly "burn in hell" for (drinking alcohol, having sex outside of marriage, believing in evolution, supporting gay marriage and ending discrimination against gays, not praying about ALL of my problems, allegedly not respecting my parents, not reading the Bible, calling the pastor a crook because he has hired most of his family and makes a HUGE salary, for not ALWAYS agreeing with Israel in the mideast conflict, for calling out so-called religious people on the bullshit, for not treating people of other religons as damned/inferior/et al, for not seeing a religious issue in every political issue....). And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
