  I'm an agnostic. I don't belive in religion but i believe in a god. Back home, in the Philippines people condemn anybody who not catholic.
But remember that i'm speaking in my case, not in general. A background I was educated in the metaphysics and theology of thomas aquinas in southridge school for boys (which ironicaly claims not to be a catholic school so that they don't have to let their teachers and students off on catholic holidays... another way to cheat for money) ... i also am a rules lawyer. Always trying to understand the rules better than the average joe so that i could be sure where i stand in my spirituality. Today my mother was threatening us that she would lock us up back in the philippines and ruin our lives if we did not go to mass... pause for the dramatic irony. (insert tune of jepordy) A woman who says things like that doesnt exactly live up to the virtues the faith would require. I'm no expert... but i can't stay in a religion where it is not exactly catholic(by means of universal). When factions of the church fight over aspects that would consider a human act a sin and damn him to hell when he contributes to the greater good. Like so what if I jack off... i'm not a repressing how i feel only to unleash it in a violent act or crime. Or suppressing them only to twist them into lurid facinations or obsessions (or am i) I guess one has to think about what is a religion. If one is part of one dont they have obligations to fulfill (or less they fall into damnation) Well, I don't want to be catholic... I'm sick of my spiritual credit being deleted every time I wack off. Thats right, by the current demands of the church... you start from zero when performing a mortal sin.
All your spiritual credit goes down the drain. Even if you'v tried so hard to be good and you quiver and have anxiety attacks being around girls you like... people would think your a pervert. A side note: Since genetically i'm predisposed to be a geek... since my grandparents and my parents aren't that fun loving its pretty hard to fight genetics. I can list a number of flaws the Catholic Religion has in terms of rules. A lot of them illogical(don't give me the faith crap) and unforgiving.
The kind of nonesense that a cheating boyfriend would use to give the girl his fucking an excuse to drop her pants, INO sweet talk and foundless arguments. and as much as I love to have sex again, I would not sweet talk a girl and lie (two different things btw) to get sex... I wish though i could get sex for humor.
