Can you think of anything else that I now get away with, that I couldn't get away with before? 😄😇🆒

All immature children think that they can get away with things. I'm a corrections officer, a youth services officer in a Maximum security juvenile correctional facility and it is amazing what they think that they can get away with.....but there's ALWAYS someone watching and we get away with virtually nothing....You may swipe the cookie from the cookie jar, but mom knows that it is gone and the consequences could be severe....NO COOKIES FOR TWO WEEKS....but go ahead, try your luck....not me!!

But we know that someone is watching all the time, but that we are free in Christ and don’t have to go back into bondage to roles and regulations, and sacraments and penances to try to appease an angry, short, tempered, vengeful God who’s always looking to zap someone the minute they aren’t perfect.

We have a loving heavenly Father who picks us up, dusts us off, and say, *Let’s try that again.*

RC’s restrictions are self-imposed and then they whine that *It’s not Faaaiiiirrr.* when they think someone is getting away with something they can’t.

Then they issue warnings to others that God never places on them, threatening retribution by the image of God they serve, and not the true God of the Bible.

LOL, there you go again. So you are a correctional officer at some so called maximum security juvie joint, if there even is such a thing. You can't pull the wool over my eyes, like you try to do when talking about the RC. I KNOW about corrections. I was a California correctional officer for 25 years, with stops at San Quentin, Duel Vocational Institute, Mule Creek, CMF and Solano. Go ahead, try to tell me what corrections is like. I've been behind the walls, walking the toughest beat in the state, and guess what bro, I survived. Now, to the other issue. I am proud and happy as all get out, that I left that false religious system, for the glorious Kingdom of God. I love to miss mass and never confess to a guy that was a worse dinner than me. I love not praying the rosary, or praying to the holy saints. I love it, and I get away with it, everyday. 🆒 I am not swimming the Tiber anytime soon.

Your chosen religion is like a jail?

Well; I guess THIS explains the authoritive tone you display on the pages of FR.
