seriously though what denomination is the church and what was talked about

Hell if I know I zoned out as soon as I walked in the door and they started gathering around me and greeting me. I would have walked out during the middle of the service (and loud crying and moaning) if I hadnt thought it would embaress my gps badly.

Did they all pray for you? My mom and my aunt recently went to church with my Grandma. They said all the congregation gathered around them and fluttered their hands around their body, praying, I guess. :rolleyes:
~That would embarrass me to no end!

They did shit like that, not to me but to others...scary stuff!
 
Mistress consider yourself lucky. One time i went to a homecoming
thing with my grandmother (covered dish lunch after the preaching) at an old, way back in the woods, country church.

This old preacher and i'm talking about in his late 70's or early 80's got fired up. Now i'm not saying he could not preach because he could, but he preached all the way through the old testament and started on the new testament when some of the deacons steped in and talked him in to stoping at about 2:00pm.

Talk about hungry! It was almost a foot race to the tables! A person could have lost a finger or hand real easy going for a peice of meat or bread!


Ps. For non-church goers always say your doing fine when asked unless you understand their ways! I made the mistake of saying i would be ok just as soon as i get over this cold i was coming down with.

This was another church by the way.

As soon as i said that i was surrounded by people praying for me to get well and of coarse they did not forget the cross with holy oil either. I was to bemused and how do you object to that anyway?

It was not that i did not believe in what they were doing so much as it was like watching someone trying to kill an ant hill with a atomic bomb.
 
Wow, glad my church isn't like that

All Churches have thier customs, and my church certainly does, but I have to be somewhat wary of churches that practice more "spectacular" things such as "speaking in tounges" etc. Not that I want to mock any religion, but the roots of many of these traditions was to keep the pheasants in line during the mideaval times when religion WAS the law. What better way to keep the low men in line, then make the Sunday sermon spectacular and fearful?

I am told all the time that my congregation and administration brothers is "praying" for me, but its not that big of a deal... its not like they are praying to save my soul or nothing. They are just praying that my situation in life improves, and that me and my family stay healthy etc.

Honestly, while most of the stuff on this board would not be supported by my religion per'se, they aren't gonna try and "save" me from these influences. This isn't the dark ages anymore, and fantasizing about this or that will not hurt me in the least. Regligious fanatasism, in whatever form, has to be examined with a level head. Religion is there to help guide you through your life, not box you in.

Did they do the hugging thing? My parents' church does that, very annoying. It took a couple of years of growling to get them to respect my space. Oddly enough, they stopped asking me to go after that. ;)

Ugh yes :( they were very much in my personal space....
 
That's when you make for the handsome young deacon and start humping his leg.

Other things to do to free yourself from the obligation of ever having to attend church again:

Down the communion wine and say, "More blood, please!"

While others are greeting their neighbors, go through the choir like a politician.

When a hymn number is announced, holler "Bingo!"

Interrupt your pewmates during the Lord's Prayer and ask why everyone says it backwards.
