"No one takes my life: I give it willingly"
And...... There is a difference amongst Catholisms. All I have to say to that is "cool".
and in clarification: My only dealings have been with the Roman Catholic Church. And as terribly disheartening as that fact may be considering the great amount of pain it has brought me, it is uplifting to think that there might be hope for me, and others like me to remain in the religion that they were born into.
So I hereby redefine my position on my Non-Catholism..
I'm Not-Roman-Catholism.... which still places me firmly as Non-Denominational, however maybe now I can learn not about Catholism as I origionally thought, but Catholism as a whole.
And maybe the problems have lied with the "Roman" and not the "Catholic".
*nod*
It is good to make such distinctions....
however... I still refuse, most ademantly, to delve into any research unless it is my calling, and if it is God calling me to it....
I will not do it for another, because if they cannot accept me as I am now, than they are not worthy to accept me EVER.
I thank you if you have read this. You are brave.
