    any other catholics here ?

    Hey there Lily! Welcome back home! I'm not active on this website anymore, but I decided to come back just for old time's sake to see if the Catholic community was active on this website or not. When looking at the Catholic DIR it appears that, except for Mark Dohle, there is no one else that...

    Social Work School

    Oh, no worries! And I completed all of the courses needed to get into the program, so now I just have to wait until tomorrow to see if I can get in or not. I have to enroll online so I'll see if I can press the enroll button to get in before anyone else can get to it.

    Social Work School

    Well, when you put it that way, I guess that does sound a bit selfish... but then, I guess in this world sometimes you have to be a bit selfish in order to get what you need/want, and I need to get into this position. Otherwise, I'm not sure what other career path I'll need to take in order to...

    Quite telling

    Means you might need to find other ways of connecting with God. Same thing happened with me when I started taking antipsychotic meds. Made me pretty sad but anything is better than being eaten alive by your own mind.

    Social Work School

    I'm about to start social work classes this Fall and I'm excited yet scared out of my wits at the same time. I'm excited because this will be the beginning of my journey to who I want to be. But, at the same time, I'm petrified because I'm not guaranteed a spot in the social work program. I...

    Sometimes I Wish...

    Sometimes I wish I could just declare myself as agnostic and just leave my beliefs at that. For years now I've been chasing religion after religion trying to find some comfort, but each time I try that I always hit a dead end either due to my own morality or my sense of reasoning. "Maybe if I...

    Is Cherry-picking Okay?

    I wonder why the term is called "cherry-picking" at all, to begin with... hmm... Anyways, I have a question to ask regarding religious systems and what to follow or not follow. I was raised Muslim from the time I was born until I was old enough to leave the house and live with other relatives...

    What Happens When We Die?

    I just got to thinking, what exactly happens to us after we die? I don't mean our bodies. What I mean is, what happens to our "soul" after we die? Do you think it goes to Heaven or Hell? Do you think it gets reincarnated until we achieve Nirvana? Or do you think nothing happens? Or something...

    Back to Being a Seeker

    I could consult my parents to teach me more, but they might not be as effective as an actual teacher that's trained to teach about the faith of Catholicism. But it's whatever I guess. In the end, I just want to gather the facts that way I can make an informed decision about what I'm doing with...

    Back to Being a Seeker

    It's important for me because I want to know about where they are coming from and what they believe. I don't think there's anything wrong with that, personally. I just have a mighty need to satisfy my thirst for knowledge, that's all.

    Back to Being a Seeker

    I just wanted to clarify here that the Inquiry classes are for people interested in the faith and there is no pressure to commit, at least not immediately. I'm taking the classes so I cam at least make an informed decision on whether or not I want to be Catholic. Besides, I want to know more...

    Back to Being a Seeker

    Hello everyone. I'm back and I'm feeling as down as ever. Last time I posted I was convinced that I wanted to be Jewish. That lasted for a good month or so... then I realized that something was still not being fulfilled in my spiritual journey and so I had to say "Thank you, but I'm going to...

    Do your beliefs make you happy?

    My beliefs make me happy, yes. They befuddle the hell out of me, at times, but they still make me happy nevertheless.
