My Annoyance About People Judging my Religion.....

Ok,as some of you may know, I'm a Roman Catholic, but some people don't really know much about being Catholic. There are some things that annoy me when they make assumptions about this religion. Ok, first off, Catholicism is not an ethnicity. It's a religion. Some people act like it is because they say, "I'm part Catholic" or "I'm half Catholic." Come on people, you're either Catholic or you're not. You can't be "part" a religion. There's no being "part" because Catholicism is a religion. Your mom or your dad may or may have been Catholic, but that doesn't mean that you are. You could be Protestant or Hindu or Jewish or something. Another thing that gets on my nerves is when people think that what's on the news about Catholic Priests molesting little kids is what happens to me. That's just a couple sick minded Priests. Just because they were all Catholic, doesn't mean all Priests in the Catholic church are like that, and all of the kids that go to a Catholic Church get molested. It's just a couple of stupid news stories. There are some other things too, like for instance, one of my friends asked me what religion I was, and I told him I was Catholic, then he was like, "You're Catholic??" Like it's a big deal. Then he was asking me about things that he had heard about the Catholic Church and asking me if they were true. Sometimes it seems like they make it a big deal. Oh well, I guess they always will. Or maybe I'm just making it a big deal? :P Oh well, it doesn't matter. I'm annoyed at this, and I like to express it too. :)
