One of the main appeals of using Catholicism in fiction is the Vatican's long and ancient history, and its various mysteries and conspiracy theories.

...and fuck, they actually have this.

Catholicism is pretty cool, in all honesty.

If you said any other Christian branch like the Baptists had a fleet of space battleships and carriers of flying mechas it would be stupid, but that sort of stuff works just fine with Catholicism.

Hellsing [the manga/anime] has made me believe similar things about the Protestant Church of England, but on a lesser scale.

So maybe only a fleet of battlecruisers.

Well, that's because it's got the British Empire behind it. I'm not sure if the Lutherans could, since the original Protestants seem like a good candidate to posses a starfleet, and German space-fleets sound snazzy, but they don't seem to have as much of a central authority that could manage a space navy, unlike the Catholic and Anglican churches.

The Anglicans are just a state church.

Catholics have a fucking /nation/ all for them.

Agri, reply to Con. I want you guys to have your date before the next IC.

I'm going to post to everyone as soon as I can.

It's less than a square kilometer. Doesn't count.

I sense an envious Episcopalian

[Nightkill the Emperor]

The fact you lot hold religious beliefs is odd for me, as I'm used to thinking of myself as the sole force of godliness amongst the secular hordes.

We don't get a space navy because we spent all our money on surface-to-space AAA guns.

AFAIK, only you, Norv, Rup and Const are religious here. NEI, Esty, Liri, Me and Nat are lapsed Catholics. Dunno about Swith, Inritus and the others.

[Nude East Ireland]

I think that if I had gotten my confirmation name, I would've demanded that the priest accepted 'Judas'.

Apathetic. I'm not areligious enough to be all "there is no god" but I don't care enough to believe there is one.

I never got to confirmation, myself.

What the hell is a lapsed Catholic?

Me neither.

I was asked to go to Sunday School in preparation, but I strategically ignored all reminders.

Someone who got baptized, maybe got communion and maybe got to confirmation, then stopped giving a fuck.

Nonbelievers and apostates, the lot of you.

I'm not, and never have been, Catholic.

I was raised Catholic. Excellent schooling although I annoyed the fuck out of my theology teacher. I'm politely atheist now and reserve contempt solely for radical fundies. Not Fundamentalists. "Fundies"... those judgmental, disdaining and pharisaical barking spiders who ignore the Sermon on the Mount in favor of fanatical bible thumping in Jesus' name.

It's not the same a "bible humping", which is mildly entertaining even though it's rather base.

[Nude East Ireland]

I hated my theology teacher.

However, we did have many discussions about Edgar Allan Poe, Sherlock Holmes, and World War II. Those made religion class pass by very quickly.

Oh.

Well I don't hold a religion, though I've been raised in a rather catholic environment.

Krish, do you need to reply to Zark and/or I?

Krish, do you need to reply to Zark and/or I?

Yes. Links would make it easier.

Since 90% of my posting is now done through mobile, links are even better than they once were.
