The inner of a church is mostly dark with some lights, this makes me sometimes feel dizzy. Does anyone else feel the same?

The ones I've been to were never dark unless they were doing some "candle light" thing.

This gives you an out with your parents for going to church. Start falling down or throwing up every time you go to church claiming that you're dizzy. 

Be careful though. Don't take it to the point where they want to perform an exorcism. HAH!

Only recently I started to feel dizzy in Church. Only a little and just for a few moments. I've been to a catholic church the last Sundays with dad, only there I felt dizzy. I don't feel dizzy in orthodox churches. It might be due to the fact that im not used to catholic churches.
If I told my parents about this, they would reply that I need time to get used to it. If I tried to fake falling or throwing up, they might get it's fake.
But don't worry, after I'll become financially stable I'll use the dizziness as an argument.

I have no clue what the difference is between catholic and orthodox. I thought they were pretty much the same. Apparently the lighting different.

Only when the accelerant ignites too quickly.

What?

The Catholic Church has bigger windows and relies more on sunlight while the orthodox has smaller windows and more candles. Orthodox priests are allowed to marry, but only before they become priests. They're also not allowed to remarry if they divorce or their wifes die. There's no such thing as Purgatory in the orthodox faith. 
Other than that there are many organizatory and arhitectural differences.

I think I'll choose to remain blissfully ignorant. Stop trying to make me dizzy!

The great majority of my experience has to do with Catholic churches.  As I recall, they tended to be pretty bright.

It's good to know your enemies.

Maybe that's the reason I feel dizzy, the orthodox ones aren't as bright.

You may have found a new medical condition. Religious vertigo.
