I remember back when they waited until AFTER Thanksgiving to start cranking the Christmas tunes. Now they start after Labor day. I bet it goes to July 5th soon. Who else thinks ENOUGH IS ENOUGH?!

I am curious to know if anyone knows of a monastic order in Catholicism, that advocates asceticism?

And please, no answers of Opis Dea, or anything related to Dan Brown or his books.

I went to church for confession because I did something very horrible and it would make me feel better if I confess and pray. I was about to go in but my Sunday teacher pull me out and told me that I can’t confess my sins because I didn’t get my first communion. So, I can’t go in to confess because I didn’t get my first communion? So, god won’t forgive me?

Not based on what we are told by religious leader or your holy book, but looking around at the world, is God caring? playful? vengeful? apathetic? Does He appreciate a good joke? Does He get bored? Can He get sad or depressed?

Or is it useless to assign human emotions to God?

I dont go to church on Sundays (wasn't raised like that), although I did go to church every Sunday when I lived with my grandmother for a while. I do believe in God and Jesus, but I don't believe in everything in the bible, such as Adam and Eve. I do believe in evolution. Haven't been baptized. What religion would I be considered when I am filling out forms?
