LifeFuel went to church today, it was awkward

[Ernst22]

I went to a Methodist church. first thing that I noticed going in is that there were two separate people you have to talk to before making it inside, both older white men one at the entrance and one inside the hall.
the overwhelming majority of attendees were old white people.
mass itself was nice and there wasn't any preaching, to summarize the pastor talked about how we distance ourselves from people who we might dislike without giving them a chance and also about how the world is constantly changing and we should let go of false idols like money and learn to live in the moment. overall a pretty nice and inoffensive message.
during the whole ordeal two times we had to stand up and shake hands with the people around us and hold hands to pray, I found this awkward as pretty much everyone knew each other already and sort of avoided me but I still got to shake a couple of people's (mostly men) hands. perhaps the women intuitively knew I was an incel.

all in all I think I will be going next sunday and I plan to volunteer in their food pantry once I'm settled in with the community. the only thing I hope to get out of this is a sense of belonging.

I specifically chose a methodist church because they're the most accepting ones as far as big sects go

Churches are nice when you become a regular. Church i attend to is run by my cousins so its kinda like family gathering lol. But my cousin the Pastor is a very good preacher. I like listening to his sermons. Its nice when new people come, i try to make them feel welcomed even though my social anxiety makes me wanna run away.

The last time I was in an Orthodox Christian church was about 4 years ago, when I was bored and I wanted to go to church to get memories from my childhood, when I was often taken there when I was a child.

THEY ACCEPTED GENTILES

they only started doing that about 70 years after jesus died
the oldest version of christianity was kike-only

 

[BreezyHills]

There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

AND LUKE WAS A GENTILE

that's really cool, if it serves as any cope when introverts like me go in strangers talking to us actually scares us away so what you're doing of leaving us alone is actually better in our view. just a nod and a smile if you make eye contact is more than enough

yeah you said one weird ass esoteric branch rejected you and now you won't go

so go to the most welcoming branch then. protestants exist because they protested the catholic church, you're doing the equivalent of asking out that ONE hipster female and calling yourself an incel because she said no
