I hit the Catholics & the Methodists too. Would have hit more but it was a small town without alot of variety. Curiousity, that and we had a couple of awesome old Catholic churches that I really had to see the insides of. I've always had a thing for old buildings & houses, that's how it began. :lol:

You being a fundi was an epic fail, or it would have lasted longer. Yes, what soured me on the church was that the pastor couldn't explain a confusing Bible passage to me, and justified his failure by saying something like "Sometimes when you chew on a piece of Scripture, it begins to chew on you," meaning, I guess, thatdespite the Bible being the literal word of God, if you find something you don't understand, you can just ignore it! Wow! I hated the whole hell-and-damnation thing, but the pastor's making a lame excuse for his inability to explain the very book he preached about was kind of my ticket out of there. What got you into it?

What got you into it?I read one of those dire paperbacks that link world events to the Book of Revelation, and was sufficiently traumatized to take it seriously.

I had a friend once who kept trying to get me to read all that type of stuff He's now involved in running some wierd cultish church. The funny thing is his little sister is now a semi-famous streaker, and lap dancer She was such a bitch. I bet he is dying of shame about her
I'll just diagnose myself as Goddess of the Universe and have done with it. Hell with autism!
nice is just something written on biscuits.
