How many of you are Catholic? Why are you Catholic and/or why do you love it so much?
(I am Catholic, so you dont have to explain the religion to me, just why you are what you are)

I'm a Catholic too.
I was raised Catholic.
When I was old enough to look around and choose what faith I wanted to follow, I found that Catholicism fit me best and answered all my questions.
With love in Christ.

I was raised Catholic- baptized, confessed, received communion and was confirmed, all through the Catholic church. This is mainly because my family has always been Catholic, Irish and Lithuanian Catholics, to be precise. In the past several years however, as my faith in Christ has grown stronger, I have drifted away from the Church because I have discovered that some of its beliefs and practices don't fit with the Bible. The Catholic faith relies too much on the rules of man, and not enough on the rules of God. That said, I do still have love and respect for the Catholic faith.

Yes, I am a working towards Catholic. I do suppose dangerous while, at Christmas and Easter, all the ones "two times a yr" Catholics pop out - however then I observe that it would be worse. It would very good be feasible they do not pop out in any respect. It's convenient for anyone, who attends Church each and every week, to visit Mass on Christmas, Easter, and Holy Days of Obligation. I more commonly surprise simply how a lot more intricate it's for individuals, who do not attend Mass by and large, to get out and pass to Mass a couple of time in step with yr. We can not suppose it, on account that we all know what we would be lacking. I do not believe those "two times a yr" varieties can thoroughly recognize what it's they are lacking. If they did, they might be at Mass greater than two times a yr. I am proud to be Catholic, so it is all of the extra disappointing while I see individuals taking an "oh hum: perspective toward their vocation as lay Catholics. All we will be able to relatively do approximately it's pray, and wish that they instance we set will, one day, inspire them to begin residing the Catholic tradition all yr circular.

I'm Catholic. I was raised Catholic. I love the Catholic faith, because for me, it is 100% true Christianity.
I truly believe that the Catholic Church is the One Christ Founded(The Gospel according to St. Matthew, chapter 16).

I am.
Mostly because that it is the Church that Christ Himself founded through St. Peter. Through those traditions passed down from generation to generation. Also, where would Christianity be without the Catholic Church. There would be no KJ Bible, let alone any Bible. Only the Catholic Church was around to safeguard the teachings and writings in the first centuries when the early Church fathers lived.

I am not a catholic... And do not wish to be one at any point in my life. More over, I would try to convert Catholics to take up science and try to be a rational people.
In fact I urge you, a Catholics to give up Christianity- it’s all false. Do not believe in something which is based on false truths - like magic/miracle.
If you get impressed by seeing bread and wine made from thin air then you have no hope in this life... What an Idiotic magic show to place believes in.

My husband was Catholic; raised in a strict Catholic home; when he began training to become a priest, he saw how so many Catholic teachings contradict God's Word; after some searching, he found salvation by grace through faith alone.

I am catholic.
I am a catholic because it is the faith that gives me hope, love, and joy. Where else can you get 7 sacraments including the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist and forgiveness of sins in Reconciliation, the Stations of the Cross, the communion of Saints, the Rosary, Lent, Advent, the Easter Triduum, and Midnight mass?
