Yeah, RC. Though truth be told I never really believed it. I went to a RC school and we kind of checked the blocks. It's time for Holy Communion - check, time for Confirmation - check...

Me: Uh, what is this all for?
Sister Mary-Margaret-Whatever: Because God said so.
Me: Oh, okay.

Yeah, if the Christians of various sects turn out to be right, I'm fucked 5 ways from Sunday. Baptized Lutheran, First Comunion nondenom, Christened Episcopalian, first "adult" communion RC, visited paganism and then went off into left field on my own, came back long enough for a RC confession and Pagan naming, went back out into left field and picked up a healthy dose of apathism (don't know, don't care.)
I got booted from the youth group for asking questions even the archdeacon couldn't answer to my satisfaction (how the Trinity actually existed, if being baptized with communion wine was better or worse than water and why, logic questions abt Mary's virginity and the stone is front of Jesus's tomb, etc.)
I almost got booted from the choir for pointing out that Greensleeves wasn't originally Christian and its origins.
Yep, I'm fucked. Goin to hell.

You and me both. I was asked to not come back to Sunday School at my S. Baptist Church after asking that if drinking alcohol were a sin wtf was Jesus turning water into wine and drinking wine at the last supper. When I was told it was non-alcoholic I called B.S. They were not amused.

Yes, because they had no way of making alcohol back then and anyway, non-alcoholic 'wine' would keep better. Morons.

I remember going to friend's church one Sunday back in HS. I'd never been to a church that didn't have wine and communion wafers. So when they start passing around cubes of white bread and grape juice, I turn to my friend and ask "y'all have a snack before communion?"
"This is communion!"
"Huh?"
"Alcohol is of the devil and we use bread, like Jesus, not crackers."
"If alcohol is of the devil, then why did Jesus and everyone else drink it?"
"Shut up and pass the tray!"
I shut up and passed the tray, all the while wondering what on earth these people thought Jesus drank when they took every other aspect of the bible literally.
