How Was Church, Sup Forums?

...

I quit going after Pope Francis got in. I'll consider going back when there isn't a Socialist heretic diluting church teaching with the Gospel of Soros.

I wouldn't know. I stay home and pray in secret the way God himself told us to do.

>And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

>But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Not to start this thread off on a Catholic/Protestant argument, but that's what I don't understand about Catholicism, that the Pope is infallible and chosen by God. Francis has disproven that pretty well in my eyes.

>organized religion
Hahahahaha

I would have to go alone, should I go, would I feel like a left out retard? would people give me looks? I want to go back to a local catholic church.

I'm a Mormon and I feel bad for Roman Catholics right now. I can't imagine getting bullied over your pope harder than I get for being a Mormon

Suck to be you

I don't go to church, it's full of Jewish lies.

>Mormon magic underwear

Hey, someone else here!

That stuff rocks I will have you know.

I'm a lifelong baptized Catholic. he's infallible in the same way Kim Jong Un doesn't have a butthole. it's an appointed position and men are corruptible.

I don't know how it is at Catholic churches, but I'd say definitely go.

okay thanks for the useless input.

Pretty good.
Lately the cantor has been making selections for the communion hymns by female soloists that I find too sensual, but maybe that's just me. Perhaps a broader interpretation of Paul's instruction that women are to be silent is called for. I get distracted from worship when I hear them singing.

I also wish bible study were after the service rather than before. I hear the sermon and I want to discuss things more.

Scripture readings were:
Jeremiah 9:23-24
I Corinthians 9:24-10:5
And Matthew 20:1-16
Sermon was on the gospel reading. The one about the workers in the vineyard at the 11th hour. Would anyone like to discuss this reading? I found that the pastor covered it adequately, but I think there is a lot more to be said and that this passage lends itself to interpretation through various ideological lenses.

I hear popefags saying all the time that one bad pope doesn't ruin the church. But you'd think they would realize that a pope like this reveals that the office of the papacy has been made way too powerful for it not to constitute a threat to Christ's church. It is a dangerous over-centralization of power.

I've been going alone for a while. I have trouble socializing so I kind of prefer to be alone. A few weeks ago some guy introduced himself to me. I now make sure to say hello to people because I have realized that not doing so makes me seem autistic. I still am afraid to initiate conversation with any women under 60 because I'm shy and a lot of them are college students and way younger than me.

>I would have to go alone, should I go
Yes. Not Catholic, but you shouldn't cut yourself off from God just because it might seem embarrassing to go to church. You need to hear God's word and receive his sacraments even if it means being there alone.

Or you could just watch mass on TV but that's supposed to be for people who cannot make it out of the house.

I didn't go today.

It was good. It's the Sunday of the Publican and Pharisee today in the Orthodox Church, the beginning of the Lenten Triodion.

Fasting is forbidden this week.

I made sacrifices to Jupiter and Apollo

The fat priest wojack is my church.

Third hour was awful
Literal retard teaching the lesson. He always goes on fricking apostate tangents.

Not just Sunday but Sunday of the Pharisee and the Publican!

ORTHODOXY OR DEATH!

try a real church, faggo

I thought about going but realized it's filled to the brim with pedo priest and pedo supporters. So I said no.

I am not a crypto-jew so i don't go to church :/

Couldn't find any sacrifices today.

I didn't go today, can I have a recap?

Didn't go wouldn't know.

I can't go because I tear up when I see Aryan people falling for Semitic religion

A brony with a bowl cut killed a bunch of dindus and a local man who ruins everything shilled for his plow business.

I didn't go. I've been thinking of trying to pray and connect with God, but I've been basically an avowed atheist for so long that it's foreign and I feel stupid. I like what this passage says though. Is it that simple? I don't feel like I could go to a church and not feel like a liar.

pretty good. the sermon was about taking care of others; how if there's one hungry or poor person in the world, we're all poorer for it. I'm thinking of adopting an african baby.
