      I'm inclined to agree, but I'm specifically talking about the religious services. Maybe I just got lucky that I ended up with Franciscans, but mass was always really interesting and well-researched, and there was always a focus on the "works" aspect of "works and praise."

      Plus, I just like the traditional music a lot more than some teenager on an electric guitar singing about how much they love God for 40 minutes while the church attendees wave their hands in the air.

        Big fan of Franciscans and modern non-missionary Jesuits.

        With praise and worship, all that I ask is that you make a joyful noise onto the heavens. The intent is what matters.

      Paul is the one who had issues with women and queer folks. He was a flawed man filled with regret and envy. Even still, his words have been manipulated to justify terror.

      I love all trans people, they are following the truth of their soul which has been given to them by the creator. The body is sacred and so it should match the soul.
