how many times?

Andy in your original post you seem to be asking a question then making a statement to defend yourself...I don't think you ever have to go to a church...I am catholic and the way I see it you follow the 10 commandments all else falls into place...If it is for you to have to work then maybe thats the way the GOOD LORD intended it...I don't think that makes you no worse than nobody else...As for myself I go to church every sat. afternoon...I do not think I am obligated to go , I go to try and learn more about my faith...To be honest most times I walk out without a clue as to what the sermon was about...Before mass starts I open the book and start reading hoping to get some understanding from it...Once the priest passed by and told me I was on the wrong reading for the day...I told him I just open the book and figure where it falls thats what the GOOD LORD wants me to read today...As for keakar you need another church...I also pass the basket and at least half don't contribute and there is no one to frown upon them....My mother and father wanted me and my 5 sisters to have a catholic education and the priest let us all ,6, 1 thru 8th grade go to the catholic school without a dime ever being paid...There is a food bank at the rectory for anyone who ask's...But it does take a lot of money to keep any building operational....As for a dress code we have whats called the dog people,,,,those who train and field trial their retrievers in the spillway come in full camo and even hip boots and they are most welcome,,,,maybe one day they might bring their dog....The catholic church in winnfield up in north la. in winter is full of hunters in their camo coming in after a hunt .....
