Wow, What verbosity. You are not a Christian, I see now. You are just a commonplace Catholic-hater.

Wow, What verbosity. You are not a Christian, I see now. You are just a commonplace Catholic-hater.

And proving once again, it is usually the Roman Catholic who resorts to the personal attack and/or profanity when the argument goes against them.

Do you or do you not have to do those things as a Roman Catholic?

You said Roman Catholicism wasn't about rules. All I did was post some of the things a Roman Catholic has to do to be a Roman Catholic.

If I'm wrong, tell me.

Canon 1247 On Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass; they are also to abstain from those labors and business concerns which impede the worship to be rendered to God, the joy which is proper to the Lord's Day, or the proper relaxation of mind and body.https://www.ewtn.com/expert/answers/sunday_mass.htm

Can. 989 After having reached the age of discretion, each member of the faithful is ob-liged to confess faithfully his or her grave sins at least once a year.http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG1104/__P3H.HTM

“Canon 920 §1. After being initiated into the Most Holy Eucharist, each of the faithful is obliged to receive holy communion at least once a year. “§2. This precept must be fulfilled during the Easter season unless it is fulfilled for a just cause at another time during the year.”http://www.ewtn.com/library/liturgy/zlitur565.htm
