saw the same thing at a funeral here, they called that poo poo a homegoing tho? anyway the priest got up there talking about how this was a wake-up call that you need to get right with god and if you don't change your ways youre going to hell blah blah, it was horrible. think they were pentecostal tho, def not catholic

One of my aunts's families is Pentecostal and they are indeed horrible people. Just whip yourself into a frenzy so you get that natural high and then take that as a sign that God endorses all your horrible bigotry. I think the cousins that came out of that are more or less alright, one of them died after relapsing from a successful bone marrow transplant and he always seemed nice.

You'd think at this point the church would get rid of their dumb priest chasity and marriage laws seeing how priests are dying off and the reason those laws were put into place was so the church could hold the estate of the places where the priests lived.

It's coming.
Give it another decade or two, but female or married priests is coming to the Catholic Church.
Priests are getting rarer than poo poo these days, Ireland is a great example of this.
Ireland can't find priests to cover everywhere, and its getting worse.

As for funerals, I have said it before here, but catholic irish wakes and funeral rites should be forced upon the world.
I have not cried or laughed as hard at my own father's funeral, I learned more about the beautiful bastard that night than a hundred birthdays.
It's better than a million therapy sessions.

Saints are awesome and a great way to ease those pesky pagans into their conversion. Instead of having them praying to some fertility goddess to help their failing crops (like they have for untold generations) they can instead turn to Agnes from a few cities over, the patron saint of agriculture or whatever, to "intervene" on their behalf. It really is a great system!

The part where they never stop pagan worshiping their own human leaders is the troubling part

I entered the Catholic Church late in life because my parents just kind of stopped going, I'm pretty sure my paternal grandmother guilted my dad back into it. Needless to say I got enrolled in Catholic school at like 7 more or less. What was awesome was that since I wasn't baptised and I was first communion age I got fast tracked. I was baptised, received first communion, and confirmed all it once. Once I hit high school all my Catholic friends were pissed I didn't have to go through the confirmation classes.

Actual question though, what are the big differences between Roman Catholicism and the Eastern Orthodox Church?

I'm talking saints. Who aside from the angels being elevated to that status, are mostly pretty easy to prove were real

And also don't have a lot of evidence pointing that if they were real, they raped a lot of kids, as that's the lower clergy's job and should be much below the importance of a messiah

Only catholic terrorism. Nonreligious or islam-type terror go in the general "hey guys there is now a terrorist atrack every single day of the year" thread, wherever that's gone to.

But yeah if you get inquisitioned or threatened with hell if you won't play "lets suck it outta a hose" with a priest, this would be a good place to post about it.

Back in the days of my tender youth I may have considered a vocation in the priesthood if I could have kept on with women. Before the whole "priests molesting boys" deal came out I remember actually enjoying going to mass, and I always felt like I could deliver a better homily than whatever father was phoning it in that Sunday. Oh well! I'm now married to a Jew gynecologist who does abortions and DNCs so I think that door is fairly closed.
