I firmly believe anyone can talk to God any time they want.
I'm not Catholic and don't know the Catholic services, but if one finds comfort in them GREAT. The more often one is in contact with God, the better.
Am I going to dare snub another religion by saying it's "stupid" - NO WAY!
I just can't see why one can't pray to God at any given moment of the day without having to stop the car, jump out on the shoulder of the road, throw off all clothes, jump up and down 10 times, do a back flip, run around the car 3 times counter-clockwise and end with poking your finger to squeeze out 2 drops of blood that you place on a near-by rock that you then throw into a bush... Too much hassle. Just talk. And if you are driving, I recomend keeping your eyes open...
I don't think God is snobbish. Does He like for us to be respectfull? Sure! Wear your best clothes and be clean when you enter his house. Do you show up at your Mom's for Thanksgiving smelling of 2 weeks without a shower and forgetting to brush your teeth for that long as well? I hope not. Give God the respect He is due.
If you have an emergency and need His guidence and protection, I doubt He would be offended if you called out to him in your your work clothes from the emergency room. I know He's forgiving. He'd not turn a deaf ear on a heartfelt plea.
And I also think He'd love to just hear how your day is going when its been good. Your Mom and Dad like to hear from you when you aren't in trouble or need money...
I think He is willing and wants to listen to anyone, any time...
LOL...One can talk to one's God at any point in time.
I just found your over eagerness to characterize wicca as a bunch of ritual misleading at best. Funny at least.
Many religions have rituals and most admit you can 'chat with God' at anytime, even in the wicca groups.
All the tools, trappings, robes, etc. are symbolic. In being symbolic, like all religions, they are used to focus attention of the masses.
When one has a personal relationship with one's God, none of the symbols are needed. Just don't be so narrow in viewing that which is different and unfamiliar. Even muslims have symbols (though they deny it)just think about Mecca...
