Hello from a Catholic
|
Well, well, well.... aren't we getting a lot of catholics in here, lately?
Welcome aboard! Feel free to take some load off of Randy Carson... he's always complaining there's only one of him and a hundred of us! 
welcome from an ex-catholic schoolboy.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Beccs means, people would object to people calling her a 'lady'.
Welcome. Another ex-catholic here. Hopefully, you can read the threads and understand rather quickly why we are ex-catholics, instead of catholics.

Welcome. Above all, have fun!
No God, No fear.
