Hello and welcome to the apostolic successor of the last Christianity thread. While most of us are liturgical in some form (Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran, Episcopalian, etc), we cover a myriad of denominations. Ask anything you want! Just remember the rules: 1) be a cool guy 2) don't be an uncool guy. last thread https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3554109 Always now and ever and unto ages of ages~~~

Hey did you guys know the Buddhist church of America has programmed services in the style of Christian services Hymns, readings from scripture, reading quotations from the founder and foundational thinkers, and there's even pews We even bow to the altar to show respect and reverence Yessir jodo shinshu is not only non-discriminatory it's also super familiar to western Christians. Don't genuflect tho that's apparently a "faux pas"

But as to all opinions which do not strike at the root of Christianity, we think and let think.

Post the sweetest Church music you got. Christian Rock is not Church music, for it is neither good Christianity, nor good rock. Vestments and architecture are a bonus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y9yM53TowA

Guy who doesn't know what denomination he is checking in. I'm glad the new Christianity thread has a broader title because I wasn't sure if I was allowed to post in the last one. Not used to liturgical services, but I'm definitely over the Charismatic evangelical thing. It gets really weird and political and flag-worshippy for my taste. Even the gentrified young people churches are like that, except they have espresso machines instead of a drip brew from the seventies. Also I imbued my clown game with shenanigans. No direct Christ allegory, more like a ~what a Christian should look like~ metaphor. Anyway, cool to talk about this on SA.

HEY GAL posted:go to a bunch of services of different denominations, see what grabs you This is good advice, though if you're more intellectual and less experiential (this seems elitist but I'm not sure how else to say "if thinking is easier than feeling for you") then reading up on different church dogmas, ideologies, and theologies is also good It's why I became Catholic, and then Buddhist. Also how I became gay, and then trans. Funny how that works. Anyway reading is also good
