I know hundreds of people in this situation, yet always advise that, despite the horrors that they sometimes witness in their parishes, they should go.
What the heck does that mean? What "horrors" in their parishes? What "horrors" in any parish?

I believe hootnanny music, dancing girls, comedian wannabe padres, other sundry forms of irreverence and disregard of Christian Tradition at Mass would qualify as horrors.

My problem is that I cannot stand the syruppy "contemporary" musical dreck that one gets in almost all the parishes near me. I have to confess that a travel a few towns over to sing in choir in a parish that has some half way decent music and more traditional hymns. I do sometimes go to my local parish and donate to them, but to me, reverence and appropriate music in the liturgy is very important.
