Lucky!

I found reason and intellect during 12 years of Catholic education, we learned about evolution and that much of the bible is just stories, written to teach ignorant people, and that it is impossible to take it literally.

I also learned that if you out yourself as a Catholic here, people think you are going to hell and all that rubbish.

So, have a beer! Catholics are allowed to drink and have fun.

That doesn't make much sense to me. Throughout the history of the Catholic church they have singled out and honored Saints that perform miracles and yet your Catholic school taught you that the miracles in the Bible are just stories written for ignorant people?
