Hi PunkyKat---I do admit that church people like to get up in our face. To be able to worship God in peace would be so nice. I do have one advantage there---I am the church organist so I am kind of away from the main crowd where you get pestered. But, I still get pestered enough. I firmly believe that we with autism need our personal quiet alone time. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a shame it ruined your church experience---but you don't have to go to church to know God---if you are into religion.
It was a Catholic church. I liked the mass but I did not like people coming up wanting to chat when it was over. I didn't like other branches of Christianaity becuase of people who wanted "fellowship". I wanted fellow ship with God but I never felt like I was getting it in a church setting because the other people were too distracting. I feel closer to God all by myself in the middle of the woods someplace. I personaly believe that God dosen't care what branch you are as long as you believe in Him and try to be a good person. Isn't my body supposed to be a temple anyway? I don't think God cares weither you go to church either. I've known people who went to Church every Sunday and they were horrible nasty people outside of church.
