Here you go, my gift to you. A thread of truth to start out on:

It's just some webpage though, you'll want to go to a more established source to confirm this.
Cheers!

OMG! my own thread... thanks gilt!
The answer lies in the pagan origins of Christmas. In ancient Babylon, the feast of the Son of Isis (Goddess of Nature) was celebrated on December 25. Raucous partying, gluttonous eating and drinking, and gift-giving were traditions of this feast.

if you eat a beer-battered communion wafer before you kick the busket, you won't go to hell

jaz why must you hate me so?

i don't get confession. if someone here is catholic and can explain to me how telling some stranger what you did wrong, therefore making it ok works, i'd appreciate it.

i grew up catholic. couldnt tell ya.

i'd believe it could make you feel better. It feels better when you tell a therapist right?

sputnik - it doesn't instantly make it okay, that's just it. If you want to be forgiven for something, you need to pray. Not talk to some imperfect man. Especially one that takes on a grandiose title like "Father" or "Reverend". That goes directly against the Bible.
nLHb - it's like two gifts in one! We can just 'bizzump' this thread every once in a while and it'll be the gift that keeps on giving.

thanks gilt. i was under the impression that you had to go to confession if you are catholic...that praying on your own wasn't enough.
my mistake ;)

"Confess in me, nLHb"
go ahead! confess!
- BonSeff0
confession was funny because depending on the sins you confess, the priest will tell you to say x amount of prayers. rediculous
- grayhood0
andy doesn't make me do that shit.
- BonSeff0
hahaha
- sputnik0
really? so the worse the sin, the more you pray?
what do you get for saying sh•t once, for example?
- BonSeff0
i dont know, havent done it since catholic school. 7th grade.. they forced us to do it.
theory goes, you arent allowed to receive communion (eat the wafer and drink the wine) unless your soul is clean through communion.

it's all about the sorrow, that more sorrow you feel, the more you pray, but if you feel no sorrow when you should, then your ass should get the gettin'!
