Losing My Religion

Tweet

I was a high school graduate of an exclusive catholic school. This is school is not similar to other known catholic school, since boys and girls in this school are separated,there is a compound for boys and a separate compound for girls. And you don't went home after a day in school, you stay in the school for the whole year. You can only go home once a year for 2 weeks. So how's that for a catholic school? Now you might be wondering why a person like me, who'd been in this kind of religious institution will start a thread like this? Well believe me I am also confused. During my stay in that school, I'd learned some Catholic beliefs that most Catholic (I guess) have no knowledge at all. I'd learned the two types of sins; Mortal and Venial. I'd learned that there are misconceptions between these sins that other people thought it was a venial but it is not and it is a mortal sin. You won't believe that you can even commit sin by just simply looking. Disturbing a mass is a sin. So, to sum-up everything that i'd learned from that school, it is easier to say that I'd learn many types and kinds of sins that other Catholic may not know. But then they also taught me one thing that makes it hard to avoid committing sins. It is the idea "that if you know it is a sin and still do it, then you commit a sin", but "if you DON'T know it is a sin, and still do it then you don't commit a sin. Innocence of the sin is no sin! Unlike in the human law/government, whether you know it or not and commit a violation, you can still be charged. But in the teaching I'd learned, even a guy who DON'T know that killing another human being is a sin and kill someone commits no sin. This confuses me.... I guess I am really loosing my religion with the number of sins I know, I think I am the person of this world who have committed the most sins
