I was raised as a Catholic...I was introduce to some Catholic religious ceremonies since I was young. i remember my parents used to asked me to lead prayers in rosary sessions. But for some reason I would laugh so hard that I always ended either embarassing myself or being scolded. After I graduated high-school my mother converted to Christian...that time I never thaught that Christians are different from Catholics...After some months I was asked by my mom to transfer and be converted as a Christian...And we became born again Christians...Well they said Christians and Chatolics are different in many ways...like ceremonies and bible interpretations...when it comes to ceremonies...Christians mostly do preaching and songs...most of the time high with the extremes..members are either crying or smililing because of happiness...well that time I was always present..I dont know, maybe boredom...because of fun activities...or maybe I was also curious...well going back to the comparison...Chatolics on the other hand has this same patern where the priest preach and make jokes about other people in front...amazingly people do laught even the jokes are not funny....Catholics has more ceremonies mainly....
Well anyway whatever difference Christianity and Chatolisim has...ironically those two religion has the same God...the same Bible...the same story...what I notice is the difference of interpretation of the Bible...not just mainly the comparison of Christian and Catholics...but the Bible itself has some parts that doesn't agree with each other...teachings doens't match also...one time the pastor said we must do good deeds before we can enter the gates of Heaven...and on the other day the pastor would say even you made alot of sins just ask for forgiveness and you shall be spared and would be able to enter Heaven....is it that easy or is it that hard?...well it's just one of the contradictions of their teachings that I notice....
Maybe I'll try Buddhism next time....they said we have just One God anyway..... http://shin-timeofmylife.blogspot.com/
