Catholics usually have a lot of booze on hand. Another plus.

E: I might go to church more often if I was allowed to get shitfaced on the blood of christ. Somebody give the pope this idea.

i was about to get indignant but you're not wrong. at least catholics have the balls to admit they gently caress up their faith all the time, evangelical protestants are the ones donating to republicans while googling "how do i get my dog to gently caress my wife"

The current pope is named after a dude who would get hosed up then go talk to animals in the woods.

Mexican catholics have a patron saint for narco traffickers.

I go to midnight mass every Christmas drunk as gently caress with my loud rear end family.

The Wolf's Motives

(a translation of "Los Motivos del Lobo" by Rubén Dario)

That good man with a heart pure as a lily,
a cherub's soul, a celestial tongue,
diminutive, sweet Francis of Assis,
met with a creature bloodthirsty and grim,
bestial, fearsome, thieving and ravaging,
nothing of pity or remorse in him.

The Wolf of Gubbio,
the terrible wolf,rabid,
had ruined calm countrysides,
ferociously slaughtered whole flocks by himself,
devoured rams and ewe lambs--even shepherds,
causing much carnage, much wastage of goods.
Hunters armed with pitchforks and scythes
fled at the sight of his long, yellow fangs.
He tore out the throats of the dogs.
Hopeless wives prayed
and prepared to yield up their lives.
Who could live in such dread of such pangs?

Saint Francis went out.
He looked for the wolf.
He searched out the wolf in his den.

And there, near the cave,
he encountered the beast,
which launched itself fiercely at him.
With his sweet voice, good Francis,
raising his hand,
said to the mad carnivore,
"Peace, Brother Wolf."
Beast looked at man,
in the sackcloth he always wore,
and was less churlish--a bit--than before,
uncurling his lip, his demeanor
showing he'd changed his mind about dinner.

"Very well, Brother Francis, what have you to say?"
The saint exclaimed, "What! Does the law
now decree you live by rapine and death?
The blood that revoltingly runs
down that muzzle from Hell,
the hideous dread
you cause and you spread,the cry of the farmer,
the grieving and shrill lament of poor creatures
lent us by Our Lord....Can't you temper your hellish ill-will?
Are you infernal?
Did Belial or Luzbelin sulphurous Hell
inspire you with rancor eternal?"

And the humbled great wolf:

"Well, here the winter is hard.
If fasting's a virtue, famine's a vice.
In the forest, all ice,
when there's nothing to eat
,I go nose out some livestock that's nice
and at times eat both shepherd and sheep.
"And the gore?I see more
from a hunter on horseback,
a goshawk on his wrist,
or chasing the stag or the bear or the boar;
and more often than not he bloodies and wounds
and tortures, his horn's brassy blare
drowning their sigh and their cry as they die,
those creatures of God our True Lord.
And nor was it just for mere hunger pangs
he went out a-hunting." (A baring of fangs!)
Responded good Francis,
"In man there exists
a kind of ferment or leaven.
Though born into sin, he's intended for Heaven.
It is sad, for the beast's soul is simple and pure.
You are going to have from now on,
I assure,always something tasty to eat
but must in these hills leave forever in peace
the shepherds, the sheep and their fleece.

I wonder if priests ever have fleeting moments of regret before embracing the void. Like, they probably realize right before death that they could have hosed more little boys if they weren't priests and get all pensive about it.

Thinking back on it the whole confession thing was a pretty hosed up thing to force kids to do too. I remember waiting in line with the other kids after Sunday school. Was like an amusement park waiting line filled with fear and self loathing.

Catholicism, not even once.

E: haha the best part is I'd just hate myself more after confession because I didn't know what to confess and just made poo poo up. Then I had to go apologize to god for poo poo I made up and it didn't even count.

VVV I did that as a kid because I was a really good kid and didn't have anything to confess and we had to confess something. I wasn't allowed to confess that I hate church because it is boring useless horse poo poo.

Question to catholics: Do you ever make up extra sins in your confessions? I'd be tempted to lie to the priest just to make my life seem more interesting. "I had a kebab on a friday and looked up butt pics on my computer" is just so lame.

If you’re going down the Ten Commandments list you generally have more than enough to say. Double if you’re 13 and discovered porn. I still don’t know what a “good faith” confession is supposed to be. I hear you have to say *everything* but I used to get caught up on all the times I spiritually jaywalked.

It's okay to make up fake sins to confess and as a bonus you get to confess to making up fake sins at the end.
