Today, at my strictly Catholic grandmother's funeral, I was made to sit in the row behind the rest of the family, because I was born out of wedlock and wasn't a 'real' member. FML

My grandmother refuses to meet me for the same reason OP. Joke's on her though, I'm the most successful one in the family and she's still working in a factory or some shit to support herself.

this is why I hate the catholic church, they have rules for every damn thing, I would have sat wherever I wanted and broken Anyones arm who laid a hand on me.

imagine that. rules to protect you, just like your parents did (if they loved you. if they didn't, no rules). btw you ass, the catholic church doesn't say to do that. op grandma is just doing that cuz she doesn't like bastards

This is exactly why I'm not religious. Agnostics won't pull this sort of shit on people.

"Agnostics won't pull this sort of shit on people." ~sparta98 Yes, just how Benito Mussolini eluded condemnation of children born prior to marriage because he was irreligious. Actually, he just decided to pull different "shit". This agnostic jerk deceived the Italian nation by elaborately pretending he was Catholic, just to win cooperation with fascism. The guy reconciled with the Pope and gave 3 of his children communion after publicly making blasphemous statements about Jesus being insane and comparing mass to hell. Mussolini even used Friedrich Nietzsche's literature to justify his crusade against Christian principles...while promoting them as part of Italian politics. That being said, agnostics can do some pretty ****** up crap, too. It's about the individual, not their beliefs or lack thereof. SHUTDOWN.

If you have to say something dumb in capital letters at the end of your rant, it doesn't mean you win something.

#80: Pardon, I was just adding simple humor to a somewhat serious post. This website is, after all, geared at being funny. I did not HAVE to say "something dumb" to WIN anything. Not my goal here, duncecap. And the capitalization is for emphasis. P.S. I do not affiliate with any specific religion yet I will defend believers against ignorance, so if your comment was retaliation for me offending you....whatchu want? A cookie?!

The weird thing is, you did nothing, it was your parents who broke "the rules." Go figure it's you who has to pay for it. Yup, makes perfect sense to me. /sarcasm

#34, you have just re-enforced the stereotype of religious people. you hate listening to peoples opinions if they don't agree with your own, but have NO problem with enforcing yours on everyone else :) I agree, religion should be eradicated, it causes so many problems.

34 didn't "force her opinion on everyone else." She didn't insist that the Bible was historical fact; she merely pointed out that many people feel that way, and 9 should be more respectful of other people's views. It seems that you're the only intolerant one here.

FYL. You couldn't help how you were born. Your parents were the ones who actually did something wrong; why aren't they the ones being punished?

what a bunch of assholes. you should tell them THEY are the real non-Catholics, as THEY had unholy sex that angers God out of wedlock. you are just the innocent baby created by the act, and therefore you are blameless. see how they like that :)
