I am a practicing Catholic. (I need a lot of practice, trust me.) Anyone else?

I'm a Lutheran. I did grow up with lots of Catholic guys, though.

I've become an Agnostic Theist, but still enjoy the Catholic traditions. Don't really care for any pope leading all of the Church though, that job should be Jesus's.

I am also Catholic, but my family and I refuse to participate in church activities because there are so many rude people and way too many church cliques. :evil:

Some people who are nice to me and my family jokingly call us "the parish rebels" and we find that very flattering. :lol: :wink:

Just writing this post makes me want to write a dark comedy about church cliques and Catholics who think being Catholic is the coolest thing when it is not. :lol:

I was raised Catholic. At this point however - still love the Lord's prayer, the Hail Mary's, the rosary, and the overall of what goes into mass including the Eucharist. Pretty much everything except the Nicene Creed.
