I got out of sunday school classes by teaching them - I took the little kids and just gave them crayons and paper and told them to draw stuff god made -
that's how I learned that god made cars and rocket ships and barbies
For me it was go to church and sunday school, or sit in my room all weekend - and this was before TVs in bedrooms or the internet, so I caved |

I was raised Catholic and got as far as my first communion. When CCD classes started after that, I had a horrible teacher who was mean to the class. I told my
parents I didn't want to go anymore because I wasn't going there to get yelled at and they let me stop. Now that I'm older, all my views are pretty
much the exact opposite of what the Catholic church believes so I tend to only go to church for weddings and funerals. But I went long enough as a kid that
I'm saddled with that Catholic guilt in everything I do.

I was raised Presbyterian, which was a pretty mild religion. Still, I was forced to go. What my parents didn't seem to get was that by not giving me a
choice about church, when I left home and was able to finally make that choice I chose not to go. And I've hardly been since (and that's nearly forty
years now), so I guess that ploy didn't work so well.
I found that being working to be spiritual was a lot better for me than trying to be religious. |

The nuns told us boys that we are going to hell for "self abuse" .
I used to run to confession on many Saturdays but often didn't make it to Communion on Sunday. I was in the constant state of Mortal Sin. |

My dad was a Jehovahs witness, no holidays, no transfusions, you'll die in Armageddon.
It was swell. |

What happens to people who don't get a chance to rebel against the tyrannies of their youth?

Seven a.m. mass every damn school day. The nuns not only took attendance, they sat with the class. You had to be in a coma to miss a day. And if you were in a
coma, the parish priest had damn well better be called to give you communion. Otherwise, it's burning in hell for you, bucko. Damn. Damn. Damn. Catholics
have much to swear about.
Itchy school uniforms, mass every day, nuns with raging headaches from those habits, what's not to love about Catholic school? |

I grew up Episcopalian. Church was ok...I usually went to the 8am service, stuck around for coffee and donughts afterwards and booked outta there before Sunday
School/10:30am service. I quit going for good after I turned 18.

Here's my Sunday school story:
I think I was in 2nd grade or so. The teacher gave us crayons and told us to draw a picture of what we thought it looked like in heaven. So I drew a bunch of people sitting up in coffins, eating grapes. lol (<---I'm abusing it!) |

Would the nuns let us take off our coats, Nooooooo. So I would end up blowing chunks in the rose bushes 3X a week. If you were the altar boy for the 6:30 mass, you could skip going to the 8:00 mass with the school. That was a great feeling We also had bi-weekly confessions for the entire class. Since the church had only one confessional, the other priest would sit in a chair and take your confession holding his hand over his face. So much for confidentiality. |

My sister and I used to walk to Church/Sunday school and when it was over we walked passed the Jewish Deli and brought home bagels and lox for breakfast.
Dad was a traveling salesman at the time and looking back it probably was just as good that we went to church. I'm sure it was an excuse for mom and dad to have their "special moments" |

I liked Sunday school. I also liked church camp. And then apparently I missed like the first confirmation meeting and they wouldn't let me continue so I
stopped going.
