CATHOLIC GENERAL

im an episcopalian

I want to thank all the guys in these threads over the last few weeks who encouraged me to try to meet with a priest. I finally worked up the nerve to meet a priest the other day and it was an awesome experience. He was really helpful in answering my questions and made me feel comfortable and welcome. He made a few calls and got me in touch with a few men from the parish who have degrees in philosophy (which I do as well) so now I have friends and contacts in the church, which I think will probably be a very good thing for me. I'm more and more comfortable with the prospect of going through RCIA and getting baptized into the church.

Going to meet another priest in about a half hour- nervous but I'm having a beer and trying to relax. I'm sure it'll be a good meeting just like the last one.

Thanks again.

Step 1: Realize Christianity is a Jewish means of control
Step 2: Realize these christcuck threads are created by shills
Step 3: Realize "gods word" is the hearsay of man and nothing but conjecture
Step 4: Be spritual, not religious. Focus on self betterment and self meditation. The spirit in the sky is bullshit and is not going to help you.

Spiritual: Being open minded about our consciousness and its connection to the wider universe; are we insignificant or just the universe experiencing itself. Do we really die? Are we really alive?

Religion: Believing a book written by a couple of lunatics 2 thousand years ago about the adventures of a schizophrenic and his stories of an invisible sky wizard who created everything

Spiritual: Being a human, wondering, building, dreaming

Religion: Cancer, war, money, mind control, pedophilia, death

Shoulder Wound of Christ

Background:
It is related in the annals of Clairvaux that St. Bernard asked our Lord which was His greatest unrecorded suffering, and Our Lord answered: "I had on My Shoulder, while I bore My Cross on the Way of Sorrows, a grievous Wound, which was more painful than the others, and which is not recorded by men. Honor this wound with thy devotion, and I will grant thee whatsoever thou dost ask through its virtue and merit. And in regard to all those who shall venerate this Wound, I will remit to them all their venial sins, and will no longer remember their mortal sins."

Prayer:

O Loving Jesus,
meek Lamb of God,
I miserable sinner,
salute and worship the most Sacred Wound of Thy Shoulder
on which Thou didst bear Thy heavy Cross,
which so tore Thy flesh and laid bare Thy Bones
as to inflict on Thee
an anguish greater than any other wound of
Thy Most Blessed Body.
I adore Thee,
O Jesus most sorrowful;
I praise and glorify Thee, and give Thee thanks for
this most sacred and painful Wound, beseeching Thee by that exceeding pain,
and by the crushing burden of Thy heavy Cross
to be merciful to me,
a sinner,
to forgive me all my mortal and venial sins,
and to lead me
on towards Heaven along the Way of Thy Cross.
Amen.
