Your comment: “My experiece with mass is that it is a snooze fest and the only way most people stay awake is because of the standing, sitting, kneeling calisthenics”
Mass is not for your personal pleasure, it is a way Catholics adore God and accept Him through His Body and Blood in the Eucharist.
I am sorry that you feel that way, and I hope that you begin to understand how special Mass is and learn to love God and how much we owe Jesus for His suffering and love.
It is not easy to be a Catholic and we should expect some suffering to follow the path of Christ.
John 15:11
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
My yoke is easy...
