My mom used to get mad at me for saying we were Christian, because we were Catholic...however I thought Catholicism stemmed from Christianity? I never understood it. Never mind Roman vs. Irish Catholic, but that's another day.
I only got through half of this week's MAFS so far. I'm glad Katie is honest with Derek, but then just call it off. He wants love so bad he doesn't see what's in front of him. I'm glad people have started to tell him what he can't see. Michael also kills me. I'm really sorry he had a death in the family, but before that name one thing he did for Meka? Is he a narcissist or it's just creative editing? Interesting that Brandon and Taylor hang out off camera, but they're still a bad match.
I would listen to the podcast. When I'm behind I come here for MAFS updates lol.
cleo29 , I should have been more clear, and I was without internet the last few days to clarify sooner. Yeah, that sucked. We're at week whateverty of complete lockdown (I'm not in the US).
To me, probably to most, Catholics are Christian, and I totally understand how someone may belong to a different denomination than their parents. It's the way his spoke about his parents which is something I've heard in theologically conservative circles. They'll say "my parents are Catholic BUT I'm Christian" or "I'm Christian, NOT Catholic" rather than parents are Catholic, was raised in x, now attends y. It's just the vibe I got. I used to hear that adamant distinction on Christian talk radio.
This drives me bananas. Aren’t Catholics Christians?
cleo29 we should make our weekly threads a podcast instead of a text fest!
Is anyone else wondering what Darcy and Stacy will look like at the end of this quarantine? Will they be wrinkled and deflated or will they look like real people again?

Finally caught up on MAFS the one before decision day. I'm sad for Jessica and Austin because they work so well together. I think I relate more because my DH changed careers well after I knew him, and the schedule rocked our world. Jessica deserves to be heard, but I think it's a combo of she isn't communicating her real issue well/he just isn't listening. My DH and I go over this that because I hate the schedule it means I hate his job and don't think it matters...nope, you have to listen that the schedule doesn't work for married folks. They both seem like they want kids in the future, so I'm sure part of her issue is not wanting to raise kids with a dad who's gone at least 10 days out of the month (I can't blame her!) I hope they work it out, but she has to let go of the I Love You thing. Just let him say it after filming is over.
I hope they share on the reunion that Katie is talking to her ex because it's so hard for Derek. Tell him it's not him, although he deserves a lot better. Good for him for calling her out about her bitchyness too.
I wonder if Brandon is contractually obligated to go to the final will you stay married? And please stop saying biggest decision of their entire lives, they can break up or get back together after.
