Maybe not a first, but eventually. I think it is dangerous to open the floodgates to any issue. Progress should be taken in measured steps, but taken nonetheless.

That's all I'm saying honestly. I wish my church would tolerate homosexuality. It would make me feel like less of an asshole when I have to sit there and listen to some of this bs. Point is they don't. But who knows they might some day. People ask why I don't change my religion and get away from catholocism since I don't agree with a lot of the political stuff they spew.

I don't because it is what I was brought up in. I have a special connection to the somber pipe organ music. I enjoy a good sunday of mourning christ's death. I know it's not the true intent of christianity to mourn christ's death however to celebrate his life. Just the same I understand this and it makes me feel like I'm smarter than everyone there. This makes me feel good. Self serving and unchristianlike I know but the simple fact that I understand that it is self serving for me to feel this way makes it Okay. Right?

Went to a wedding at a methodist church. It was cool laid back not as dreary. But their excitement about the liturgy kind of freaks me out. My excitement about christianity is internal. I don't like to freak people out and push the bible on people. That's just me.

I'll stay in catholocism and try to teach my son where our church is right and wrong. And moreover that no one religion has it all right but for me the importance is to believe in something.

If believing in something goes against any of your believes or positions please note I don't intend to offend. Just explaining how an almost 26 year old can share such 'antiquated' beliefs. and the fact that they aren't really bigoted and antiquated after all. aint2:
