I haven't been to church in forever, choosing to follow my own relationship with God. All I can say is wow what a clown show.

I was there for my Father so he wouldn't feel so alone without my Mom. But I felt truly out of place and just biding my time.

I feel now even more than ever the way I relate to God truly feels right.

The main ritual of worship is literally the words and acts of Jesus at the Last Supper. Matthew 26:26-30

That's exactly right. The things that Jesus did were breaking of the bread as a symbolism of him, same with the wine and then the Our Father. I do like The Beatitudes though. The rest is just ritual and pageantry, time fillers.

Today they were swearing some new Catholics in and they literally had everybody in the audience hold their hand up like they were doing some sort of ritualistic seance to send their power to these new catholics. I just stood there looking at everyone like what the fuck is going on.

The only time the hold the hand up (like a laying on of hands in prayer in the direction of new Catholics) that struck me as odd was when I realized that people were holding their hands out like a heil Hitler.

Some people did the double hands. Guess they had some extra power... The church is so lost I feel. I can't even say "well at least it's keeping people honest"
