Spamity Calamity Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Hi. Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm 27 just got out of college about a year ago. I went to mass every sunday till I was 18 and then I fled into the big city. Screwed up a bunch, did a lot of drugs (alooooot) failed out of school, ran around with a very violent group of people. Some of my old friends are dead or in jail now. Did alot of things I'm not proud of. Been to hell and back and I can honestly say, its not a great place to be. Met a super great woman. She got me to back to school and got a degree and got a professional job. Now I got a cubicle and everything! . For the past year or two I have found my thoughts drifting back towards Catholicism. This occurs most frequently when I hear another criticize the church. I just have this innate feeling that alot of the arguments about her are unfounded. After getting into a particularly large argument with a protestant for which I was completely ill-equipped I found myself searching the internet trying to find out more about his allegations and a defense to it. I'm learning that there is so much to the theology of Catholicism that even most Catholics are unawares. Just a few days ago I discovered that there was Catholic music! I was like Really? I have always heard of Christian music but I always thought it was watered down, kind of general christian music. And when I listened to the songs by phatmass I found my skin was tingling. I couldnt believe it! Real honest to god Catholic music and it sounded really good too! And now there is a whole forum to discuss this religion and a sign to me that secularism has not wiped out religous culture entirely. Anyways, I just wanted to introduce myself. I really dont like revealing stuff about myself to others but I dont know, I thought could here and maybe hang out a bit and ask a few questions if thats cool with you all.

xTrishaxLynnx Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Hello and welcome! I'm very glad you found the phorum. I've learned so much from Phatmass, and I'm sure you will too. Besides all that you'll learn from the phorum, you should check out the Defense Directory, I know it's helped me a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
