This is kind of the discussion I hoped to have with you guys when I created my "why be good" thread. But that did not happen lol. Too many people were focusing too much on my title as Catholic to really have a genuine conversation with me about what they thought. I should have disguised myself as an atheist when I made that thread.
You should have asked a far less ridiculous question, and you still -ought- to stop blaming every damned thing on your catholicism and the inequity of others. Cath, you say stupid shit....that's why people respond to you the way that they do. Take some fucking responsibility for a change?
