I was. baptized by the Catholic Church but never practiced the religion growing up because my Dad is an atheist (he grew up in communist Cuba while religion was banned there).

Welp

He's still pretty based and right-wing (getting shit on by a communist dictator will do that to you), but never saw the point in religion and never took me to church.

Weord

Not really

A lot of people from communist countries or African shitholes tend to be right-wing when they come to the West

I certainly would have never picked Catholicism back up just by paying attention to mainstream American culture. /Pol/ un-ironically made me want to pick the Bible and connect to my religious roots.

same tbh

>baptized and confirmed catholic, lived the faith admirably by all accounts, immediate crisis of faith in the church after confirmation

not yet

>left to figure out what the hell god meant, agnostic to aethist to zen to pagan

Now I can bring the word of Christ to all these godless heathens like my ancestors before me

Nice

Arrived at a "well, he seems like a rather personal thing or person to experience"

Question, who has seen their angel yet?

so i decided to talk to the man rather personally

Now i get visions

How?

>confirmed Michael, I always knew who my patron was

How?

I dunno, I'm a tad worried it's more a symptom of madness than revelation

No, it

Its god

He is giving you the sight

Hopefully, yes

heh

It's been rather muddled in translation, so I got to praying on clarity and somebody up a flight of stairs gave me this

"Put your sword to the cross"

that's the last bit of contact I've had since, so i might have a chance to speak to a priest this weekend

Hopefully a father can help me figure out what the hell that might mean outside of a crusade

Because i have a literal sword in my possession, so the state of the symbolism is rather, y'know, worrisome

>tfw you could either be called to physical battle or the priesthood by God Himself and might even mean both

@Burnside In hoc signo vinces

Inorite?

Anybody else look up the meaning of their full name?

First thing that popped into my mind. A new religious awakening may be upon us.

My parents are of Ibo/Biafran decent

My second name translated to English means "Child born of a free man"

My first name is Michael

"He who is like God"

it's a rhetorical question actually
