“Father, is it wrong to have sex before Mass?”
“Well, my Son, so long as both parties are duly Married to one another in the Church, and they aren’t blocking the aisles....I don’t see any problem with it.”
When I was younger and not a good boy the Catholic girls were the wildest.

There used to be a particular Catholic high school around here with that reputation. I know families who sent their boys to public school, but they had girls a bit on the wild side who were sent to this school to “settle down”. Bad move! Putting them all in one place just gave reinforcement and made it kind of a Ho University. The end result being the biggest one-stop shopping place for hot-to-trot oversexed young women in the entire County.
“Legs spread wider than a {insert name of school} girl” was the saying in my day. Any hormonal young guy looking for some early action knew that was the place to go. Eventually the Diocese realized they had a problem. Took steps to address it, and changed the name of the school.
Church attendece is a poor indicator of "devoutness". Being an 'in one ear, out the other' pew potato does not equate to "devoutness".
My ex BIL attended the Episcopal Church religiously, after researching that it had the highest percentage of mid to upper income members, great social functions, and hence was the best opportunity for 'contacts' as a Realtor; God did not enter into the equation. His 'god' was Mammon.
One could never call Pelosi or the Kennedy Gang, or many others, "devout" Catholics, no matter how often they show up for Mass.
Actually, those of us in the demographic don’t really know first hand, as we don’t have anything to compare it to.
And I have no interest in finding out.
It’s fascinating how this topic causes people to bring up their great experiences fornicating. “Unclear on the concept ...”
well you wouldn’t want to hear about the bad ones, would you? Cuz if so, I can (finally) go on for hours....
Eew, bleh.
In all seriousness, I agree with you that someone fitting a good definition of “devout” would be extremely unlikely to answer this survey.
Even if the underlying premise is true.
No wait; what's that word that's the opposite of 'surprised'???
Snake handlers do it with venom!
Bible thumpers do it thumping!
HEH HEH HEH!!
Yep! Like prayer, sex/sexuality, is kept private by the actual devout.
Well, while church attendance does not equal devoutness, church absence (unless associated with a health problem) does usually equal non-devoutness, at least among Catholics.
God works in mysterious ways...
