    Re: What do you do when people mock/criticize your religion?

    Well, I'm a religious guy, but to be honest I don't even go to Mass on Sundays, so you be the judge on how religious I really am. But only because the nearest church is far away, and I can't even drive a car yet.

    But enough of that, as you can tell, I'm Catholic. We get a bunch of lunatics telling us we worship idols as well as doing other "unchristian" things. They don't really take the time to study our faith, they just spew a bunch of nonsense that sadly either comes from parents or Protestants in general. They don't even know the difference between worshiping and reverence.

    I do have Christian friends, and they either keep it to themselves or they have no problem with Catholicism. But I do end up getting a debate when someone questions my faith, but in every case I come very prepared. It's hard to debate with a Catholic, especially one who DOESN'T follow their religion like a sheep and actually knows why he's affiliated with the Church in the first place.

    Ignorance and intolerance are serious problems in the world. They do more harm than good.

    Please read the poetry from two great friends of mine. May they find peace.

    ~St. Augustine
