I identify as catholic but I'm biologically an atheist who retweets porn on twitter and listens to trap music.
Holy Communion is just the veggie burger of ritualistic cannibalism
Catholicism storytime
Ok so I am baptised catholic but in no other way raised towards christianity, I didn't go through first communion. But when I was a teenager I was at the first communion of my younger cousin. So I'm at the church, I shake hands or whatever and then it is time for everyone to receive communion, which of course was not something for me to partake in. But as I was between the benches where there was no room for people to go around me, I moved to the aisle to let them go. But I found myself in the middle of the crowd, all walking towards the priest. I was trying to be polite so I really didn't want to force myself the other way through everyone, so I just went with the crowd, looking around, trying to find a place to escape but I couldn't find any. So as the crowd was pushing me closer, I accepted my fate. But I didn't know how does one receive communion, so I observed the facial muscles of the people before me and decided that they were just saying Amen. And then, I am the one standing before the priest, he says his thing, I say amen and receive the communion. I return to my family and they are wide eyes open at me and they laughed a little.
I really want to know what does the catholic church think of this situation, never had a formal first communion, never confessed, never goes to church, does not believe... Does this count as just an unceremonial first communion? Or like what now am I going to superhell or what lol
