Hi Guys,

I was thinking the other, thinking how great I am. I am great, I am worthy, I am a saint (no disrespect to true Saints, btw). Therefore, I was thinking how fitting it would be to have my name canonized, as recognition of all the good works I have acheived throughout my lifetime, especially here on my spiritual home, Phatmass. I think anything else would be an injustice.

What do you guys think?

I think we can safely say that humility is a virtue you would need to work on before we could realistically consider canonizing you...

[quote name='Phazzan' date='Nov 7 2004, 12:31 PM'] I have an identity crisis, cause this Catholicism is holding me back.  Im not someone who goes to church to pray, who reads the Bible every day, who talks about Jesus with his friends, that's not who I am.  Sometimes I try, I try to talk about Jesus but people just look at me funny and think Im strange.  It makes me feel all weird and stuff too, so I just keep quiet.  Its like, you have like people who were BORN Christian, that is they got that goofy Christian look and personality from them since day one.  Like Rod and Tod, and Ned Flanders, but Homer wasn't born to be a good Christian.  Thats his calling in life, to make an @ss of himself and get drunk at Moes.  But thats how it works in the real world too.  Me, nah, I aint no Catholic.  I'll always believe, I'll go to Mass, but I'll never be a good Catholic, it's cause I cant reconcile my beliefs with who I am.  I believe in everything the Catholic Church teaches, I will always respect it, and in a sense ill always love it, but ill never be able to practice it in the same way most of you do.  Its hard to explain, i dont expect none of you to understand.  Its like, whenever i have my religious moments, moments when im strong in faith and love for God, thats when im not myself. I tend to get all serious and self righteous.  Im actually ashamed to be a virgin, I reckon it smells of elderberries.  I dont mind not getting no loving, I just hate the tag.  I think about losing it just so i can lose the tag and people wont hold it against me.  I consider it a weakness.  I consider it a weakness how Catholics arent allowed to stand up for themselves physically, instead all we can do is "turn the other cheek" and pray and spread love while everyone laughs at us behind our backs and thinks we're crazy.  That's what this life is about, isnt it, getting stepped on so everyone can feel superior to us while we just sit there and pray and spread Jesus love even though they think we're crazy and laugh at us and point fingers and stare and tell everyone how goofy and deluded and brainwashed we are.  I just dont consider that fun.  Like seriously I can sometimes see how all this is supposed to work that one day we'll all be in heaven and they'll probably be burning in hell and justice will prevail but I take each day as it comes, and that's sux cause each and everyday you gotta live your life knowing you're gonna get stepped on and you cant defend to yourself except with Jesus love which in most cases fails anyway.  So yeah, I know im a weak Catholic, and probably a weak person at that, but I dont like feeling weak no more, I actually feel like a stronger person when Im in my weaker moments, and when im in my stronger spiritual moments I dont feel like myself cos someone gives you heck and you cant do nothign except hold up a Cross and say "Jesus loves you" then they laugh and point and stare and everyone gangs up and starts lauging and teasing then your pants fall down and everyone starts laughing even harder, while you're thinking to yourself "golly, those people are such meanies, I might actually go and pray for them.
