I follow Christ not some magesterium. Following Christ is Christianity. Following a church is Churchianity.

Following a lot of what Quix teaches lately?
Come on, you’re better than that. I am a Catholic, Christ is the center of my faith.
Christ is the reason I am a Catholic.

From my home page:
I converted to Catholicism at Easter Vigil 2008. I thought I was a Christian. After all I had called myself a Presbyterian all my life. But, I had never been baptized and I didn’t realize at the time that baptism was so important.
I never said the Sinner’s Prayer. It never seemed real to me. It always seemed a manipulative thing. The altar call. Couldn’t do it.
After many years I started going to church. I just wanted to worship God. That’s all. Should have been so simple. But every place I went seemed so person oriented. Not God oriented.
Someone I had been doing business with told me about RCIA. Now I didn’t know at the time but he truly lives his faith. I went to see him one day but he wasn’t at work. When I asked about him I was told he was in the hospital. I didn’t even know he was sick! That’s when I found out that he had donated one of his kidneys to someone he doesn’t even know. Just a fellow Catholic at another parish. I have since met the person he donated his kidney to. He told me that he was given 15 more years of life because a man I knew truly believed and gave of himself.
It took me a year to actually start going to RCIA. You see, I knew the rule. I knew that if I became Catholic I would have to go to Mass every single Sunday and I just wasn’t sure that I wanted to give God one whole hour a week. I am amazed that I am still here to tell you this.
During RCIA, I went to Mass. And I knew. This is true worship. I kept going to Mass, every SINGLE Sunday.
I now am co-owner of a Catholic bookstore and go to daily Mass. God is so much more than we think. I thank God every single day that He made me Catholic.
Don’t you ever wonder if some people talked in real life the same way they write, that their noses would be so high up in the air that they would trip over their own feet? Or if it rained, they would drown? I do. ;o)
