I am sure you are a very nice person but I am not here to have a debate about religion. I answered the OP's question based on my sense of humor and using a very basic explanation about a mythology that I no longer practice. M'kay?

I never said the bible was literal. Where the fuck did I say the god damn bible was literal? But if you are a catholic and were not told that the god damn bible is the word of god than you either went to a fucking crappy ass church or are lying. I spent 7 years in catholic school in the 60's and 70's and it is…

I never said it wasn't. In fact you might have noticed the sentence where I said "the people who decided what writings would go in the New Testament". But then you would have had to read and comprehend my comment instead of react to it viscerally

But in reality it would mean that the people who decided what writings would go in the New Testament were hiding…

You missed the point of my comment. If you are close enough friends with me that you would want me to be a bridesmaid than you would know that I can't afford it. So don't ask in the first place.

From the article: "According to a 2011 study, the average cost is $1,695"

First of all I clearly said in my message - which you couldn't be bothered to read apparently - that I was raised catholic but am not anymore. And catholics do not tend to be pretty ignorant. That is a very insulting thing to say. And quite a few religions are entirely based on authority. Do you attack people who…

Yes, the church spent money but that doesn't mean that 100% of the catholics who continued to go to church approved of it. Having been raised a roman catholic (though…
