Well iv been thinking a lot latley about how messed up this generation is I'm 16 and I wonder if ill ever get married I feel like there's very few real Catholics left now a days you can't even walk in a Catholic Church and find a real catholic when ever I was in Sunday school it seemed every person there knew nothing about god and almost never prayed I mean I know I'm not even close to perfect and I do dumb stuff but they seemed to have no idea that there was even a hell and has anyone ever noticed you walk in a Catholic Church and everyone only has 2 kids that's not possible usally unless there's something wrong with you witch I'd bet my life on it that not everyone in the church has the same problem I feel like every time I walk in a Catholic Church only 10 out of every 100 no why there really there I always wonder if ill ever find a guy to marry me cause I believe you have as many kids as god gives you and that religion isn't just on Sunday it's a huge deal not just a small part of like its the hole reason life is even there dose anyone else ever feel this way

    I'm 24 and often feel the same way. Wonder if I'll ever meet anyone that's Catholic and for me.

      I wish there were more people out there with values a long time ago even if you weren't catholic people still had simalier values now a days 12 year olds aren't Virgins it's kinda scary

    Yes Awk, lots of people have felt like you, maybe billions, but I think your attitude will not be: "there are problems in my church, so I quit", . . . instead I think your attitude will be: "there are problems in my church, and that is why God put me here, to help improve things". . . . . . . and you don't need to worry about finding the right guy. You will likely find 1 or 2 that are right for various phases of your life, before you find the final right one.

      It is going to change for the better, much much better, but I think it is still going to get worse for awhile longer, before the turn-around comes. You will see the most amazing and beautiful resurrected church, within your lifetime, I just don't know when.
