I noticed only a few people bow during this part in the Creed

I’ve noticed lately at Mass that when we hit the line in the Nicene Creed, "and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man," a few people bow. By the way I'm not looking around, I just noticed it from the corner of my eye. According to the General Instru…

Rosary before Mass

I arrived at Mass about 20 minutes early to find the laity praying the rosary out loud with one person starting the Hail Mary while the rest of the people finished it and they did this for the entirety of the time before the Priest walked out. Is this a normal practice?

Asked Mother Mary to give me a clear answer regarding an ex and she did within minutes.

After 5 years (yes, a very long time) I was still hung up on my ex for various reasons, many reasons, aside from the extremely strong bond and love that we shared I thought she was the woman of my life - years ago I did ask God to let me meet the woman of my life and two weeks l…

I think it's incredibly sad, and telling, that in America, the non Christian politicians are often more Christ like in their policies and don't sell out to corporate and other interests as the ones that claim to be Christian.

Just reflecting on American Politics. And to add fuel to the fire, in the supposed Christian-dominated state of Texas, where they want to force the bible onto all kids and in their policies, the Republican so-called Christians are the biggest hypocrites, trying to negate our vot…

God touched my heart

I grew up in the LDS religion. It was my understanding that salvation was earned. If I did all I could, then God would accept me into the highest kingdom of heaven. It was all arbitrary rules (like not drinking coffee, not showing shoulders) so I went through the motions without…

Required to sign a mass attendance sheet?!

For context, I have a just turned two year old and a 3 month old. I am in the process of getting them baptized. I have struggled with regularly attending mass, and this has only increased with the stress of having two kids. My partner is non practicing and works Sundays, so if I…

Why do too many American Christians have a disdain towards the poor, when Jesus opened his ministry saying the Spirit had anointed him '' to Bring Good news to the Poor'' Luke 4:18

Please note, I'm not referring to all Christians if you provide for the poor and have compassion towards the poor and Homeless, it is GOD( The Holy Spirit) Working through you and God Bless you for that. in the Book of Luke 4;18, when Jesus said '' The Spirit of the Lord is on m…

Eternal suffering is something my mind simply cannot comprehend

I just can’t get my head around the idea of experiencing pain with no end. Not for an hour, a year, or a thousand years - but eternity. I’m not saying that to question God. I know hell wasn’t created for us, but the thought of eternal suffering is genuinely terrifying to compreh…

Serious Question

I 25F (non religious) have been seriously talking to a 24M white/Italian Roman Catholic man. When he told me his religion I was a little surprised. I don’t know too much about the religion as I’ve grown up around mainly black Christian’s. Please enlighten me
