...if you read most of the posts like those of Metmom, you will realize that some non-practicing Catholics considered the church TOO restrictiveand wouldn't allow them to have any fun at al

LOL kidding of course.. I live in a very RC area.. let me assure you that Catholic have no fear of sin.. they can just bring in their list to the priest,say 3 Hail Mary's and 3 Our Fathers ...and they are good to go ..I hear blasphemy , cursing, filthy jokes ...I see drunkenness, regularly in people that just ate christ...

Then there is always the "back up"purgatory

... See terycarl the saved hate their sin..they have no desire to roll around in it then take a bath to "look" presentable.

We are no longer slaves to sin ... we no longer love our sin or take joy in it.. When we sin..we run to the cross because we know we must thank our Savior for forgiving it ..

RN, LOL, stop telling the truth. 😱 We can't have the truth here. It might upset the apple cart. 😂 I know when I was a catholic, I ENJOYED sinning. I lived for it, because I went to confess to a priest every Saturday, then I went out and lived like Hell. I thought it was a wonderful thing. I could sin till the cows came home, and then go to the priest. Heck of a deal. After awhile, even that didn't work out. We continue the war against the old nature. Keep up the good work. 😇
