Thanks Kim for sharing. Dogmas have been such a big part used to control people. Have always had this intuition of things not right in the church. Much of my questioning will make me an outcast instantly. Religion has been more of a bondage with massive control. Fear, guilt, shame, tithing has been preached more than our divinity, freedom and power that we are created to be. Religion keeps people small so we can be controlled easily. My mind draws a parallel of the Sunday mandatory attendance is to collect money just like baby well checks are to only give the shots. How evil I think to say that if one does not attend Mass on Sunday, it is a mortal sin. Would Jesus think so?
