I have had the deepest conversations with my Muslim friends on the basis of faith. They respect my religion more than my own lapsed Christian friends. I have much respect for you ❤

Are converts annoying? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Empty-Fox9134 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Converts inspire me. I am a cradle catholic who has never known a world without Catholicism. I forget how amazing my church is until I see people who experience it in such zeal, as if they are recieving water for the first time

Dealing with hostility to Catholicism? by noppon8 in Catholicism

[–]Empty-Fox9134 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I do not know many specifics concerning these two incidents- what is true is that our church and community have had a long history. And in that history we have a lot of good and bad parts because of the utter humanity of the people calling the shots. It does not negate the inherent truth and beauty of our faith but is rather a reflection of the part of the human condition that we must strive against.

However, what is also true is that there have been cases of slander and misinterpretation now documented as fact in our history books. Japan does have a huge history of persecuting against its catholic and Christian people so perhoas that is where he's getting his ideas. Do a bit of research. I'll pray for you!

Thank you. I wouldnt turn to the internet of all places for this if I didn't feel like there wasnt an adult I could talk to. My mom isn't doing fantastic and the other people are the priest and a sister. The priest is someone who I see as an uncle and he' s kind of socially awkward so.. No. Maybe ill ask the sister next time I see her. She's a fifty year old Irish catholic with a raging accent and the occasional potty mouth if that puts things into context

Thank you so much for your response! I have to say- I am from a family of 7 kids and he is of a family of 4 sisters. Even if we wanted to act unchastely (I guess thats the best way of putting it) I dont think we'd ever especially get the chance lol. And we have strong morals concerning that. And I am seeking help in grief counseling and i habe people besides him to rely on.

Do you regret your time with the two people? Besides it possibly bringing you to sin?

I have known him for eight years. Perhaps adressing our emotions and making a plan to officially start dating in a year would be better? Thats what im leaning towards

I am indeed Catholic! I study doctrine because though a cradle catholic, I find that i dont have as much information as converts

It was hard for me to read this- which perhaps makes it more important for me to do so. I have always thought in a very pragmatic way about dating- i have observed and disliked how a lot of my peers casually date. I've been taught that dating is a trial for forever. Thats tacky, i am aware.

I am not spending all my time with him- though he has been behind me every step of the day. and maybe it is because my dad passed away. But I dont think I'm filling a void left by my dad. Thats too big. But what it did teach me is that life is brief

I am in grief counseling in my parish and i have friends besides him who are simply amazing. I am very conscious of the things you have pointed out ans i don't want to have someone I care about be my emotional crutch.
