Author Topic: I don't care about church but parents make me go.  (Read 3244 times)

I'm not going to try and portray this as mean. It's just... They take me to church with them. I don't care, honestly I think that some of the things they teach are a bit old-fashioned, and I don't want to be there. They know this. They... I guess think I believe, not sure? They don't make me sing or anything, it's not "YOU WILL GO TO CHURCH AND YOU WILL PRAISE GOD" it's "You're going to church, sitting, being polite, and leaving, other than that we don't care."

Also I work in the nursery at church every third sunday (so tomorrow as of posting this) so I don't have to sit through service.

I'm not even sure what this thread is. Help? I don't believe in god, really... I mean, if he's real, I wouldn't exactly believe in what he's saying. The story of Noah's Ark. And Jesus is perfect, and is also god? Hm, after killing all but two of everything that lives on land?
I'm questioning my religion. I do believe the existence of god is a possibility, but he's not all good and all powerful. Otherwise, why can bad things happen? Flawed logic.

Just... What do?

Also... Trying to read through all of Genesis for fun... Lived to 1000 years then they died, had blah blah blah sons/daughters, we get it, lots of people came before us. CONTENT PLEASE?

P. S. Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of religious debate!


Sit through it as you grow up, then never go once you move out. That's what my parents did.

Holy forget I had the same problem. have you tried telling them you don't like going to church?

we go as a family, or at least me, my brother, and my father try to go every Sunday or Saturday.  If we have too much going on, we don't go.  My mom is Methodist and we are catholic.

The law thingy of the catholic church says you can go to church on Saturday evening.  i guess it started out as a late night vigil but too many people wouldn't show up or fall alseep, so they made is earlier in the day.

Maybe it's one of those rare hipster churches?

That works, my mom's church has a youth group thingy on Thursday nights and they have a service on Sunday
