Matt-Liell Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 Well in my family my mom's side is catholic and my dad's is united. For all of my life I was going to the untited church and I wasn't getting anything out of it. I would be happy not to go to church. Bu this year I decided to convert and since September I have been taking classes and everything. Well today is the big day, in half an hour I go for first confession and at 8 pm I will receive first holy communion and then confermation. Well wish me luck you guys!

Darth Eggplant Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 I used to be an alter boy. liked the robes. oh and cheeze wiz and those little peanut butter and jam packages male for good communion waffer sandwiches at early mass. oh and watering down the wine with grape juice and vinegar, well the priests eventually figure that out too. I am a RC roman catholic, and I almost got the complete package my grade school had nuns who beat us regularly, however I was never molested by a catholic priest so I do not think I experienced the 'entire' christian experience. oh and on the subject of penguins (nuns) 'Nasty Habits' Whahhoa! Hooooo whoa whoa whoa whoa Ahhhhh! Here's something to think about Where would we be now without Nasty habits, nasty habits Makes me want to scream and shout Life would be so dull without Nasty habits, nasty habits All those naughty little things That we don't discuss publicly Nasty habits, nasty habits Tell me your secrets Tell me your name Tell me your secrets Does it please you to employ Little girls or little boys Nasty habits, nasty habits Do you like to romp and play By yourself when they're away Nasty affair, what do I care Do you peek at magazines Filled with doggies and leather queens Nasty habits, nasty habits Tell me your secrets That no one should hear Whisper them softly Into my ear I won't tell, I won't tell People act so proper when they're going 'bout their business Cup of coffee, friendly conversation Til they get home, til they get home Take the phone off lock the door and shut the curtains Make sure that the neighbors are without suspicion No one will know, no one will know Nasty habits I must condone No one knows what I do when I'm all alone Nasty habits, I'm so ashamed... Nasty habits here to stay Now they'll never go away Try and stop you'll have to pay Nasty habits here to stay People act so proper when they're going 'bout their business Cup of coffee, friendly conversation Til they get home, til they get home Take the phone off lock the door and shut the curtains Make sure that the neighbors are without suspicion No one will know, no one will know Nasty habits I must condone No one knows what I do when I'm all alone Nasty habits, I'm so ashamed But we must not let that stop our little game Nasty habits are so much fun! Nasty habits here to stay Now they'll never go away Try and stop you'll have to pay Nasty habits here to stay Hoppy Easter! from the pagan christian fuzzy one.

Arreat Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 You're gonna get confirmed just like that? No classes, rehearsals, passing a test that consisted of 200 marks that requires a passing grade of 70%? No community service for 10 hours ??? And most of all no having to attend mass every tuesday until you get confirmed?? Man, I had to do all of this to get confirmed, and here you are getting confirmed without any effort!!? Man, you're damn lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Eggplant Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 ah yes the old snake and potatoe guy. I chose Christopher because I am born on Columbus day, and as a precotious tween\teen I was always the one who said grace on thanksgiving: 'lord we give thanks for this meal we about to eat, and for commitinng genocide on the proud race of people who lived here before us. now if my name had been Philes I naturally would have chosen Xavier and late but true the paitron saint of computers is Isador for the wired catholic out ther as yet to take the plunge. i still remember the horro of confirmation, i attended a RC Italian school kids getting confirmed were given Z28's as confirmation gifts. i got a card nor did i think getting more was neccissary or appropriate for that matter. hope yours was not too ostentatious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
