Have you ever attended a Catholic Mass and/or would you consider ever going to one?

 

Just a curiosity of mine.

I have attended several over the years, beginning in high school as part of my desire to better understand the faith of others.

Yes.

 

I even served at your graduation mass.

 

My first and last time.

Yes, I've attended several over the years like Fastbreak to better understand the faith of others.

Every Sunday, but then again I'm Catholic, so I'm guessing that's not really what you were going for...

Yes, I have, on a couple of occasions.

I voted yes, but I don't know if my vote really counts...my early upbringing (prior to my mother divorcing my father) was catholic. However, if given the opportunity I would attend mass again.

No, The word "Mass" means the Catholic gathering of fellowship to hear the Gospel. Is that correct? Thats all I'll say.

Yes, I try and attend during Easter and Christmas Eve with the boys. I find the solemnity of the high church service to impart the attitude I am looking for on those occasions. I'm more concerned with the sermon on most services, thus my Baptist background, but high church can be very moving when done right.

When you go to those masses, do you go to a parish that has a traditional Catholic Mass or a more contemporary one?

 

Having been involved in the celebration of both in my life I personally find the traditional one to be the most fulfilling.

Don't leave us hanging. Out with it.

I do not hold to the teachings of the Catholic faith so I have no desire to attend a Mass where I would not feel comfortable participating or where I would not be invited to participate. Devout Catholics would never attend a service (keep in mind I said Devout) at a Baptist church or one of another faith for the very same reasons. The teachings are very different. I do not intend to offend anyone but you asked and I answered.

I've never been to one. Our county has had a Catholic church since the early 1980's. Their membership has grown over the years, but to be honest I would guess that few Owsley Countians know very much about the Catholic faith. I know my deceased dad surely didn't. I remember him saying that when he was in WW II with Catholic buddies that they would party all weekend and then go to confession and get forgiveness. I know that's not how it is, but he sure thought it was. He didn't know much about the religion, but he said it sounded like a pretty good deal to him.

Took a Catholic girl to her prom at Brossart. We went to a Saturday evening mass beforehand.

I think that would be the answer I would give if you asked me if I would attend a Baptist service.

 

No offense taken.
