Knights of Columbus

What I'm going to say is controversial. The Knights of Columbus organization is limited to married men, which means that the vocation of single life is devalued in a roundabout way, and it populates the false Novus Ordo church. Their strange ceremonies and flamboyant dress give me the creeps. Insurance is a massive, manipulative industry, and while necessary in this mortal life, I find no use for any more of it.

Single life is what is, and consecration might be fine for some but not for me. I have functioned pretty well without it. My prayer life is not caught up in ceremony or anything fancy. Music and art, which I do not possess, except for one inherited painting, are as much a part of that life as going to church is. I'm not telling anyone how to live life; I'm just telling you I don't need to be taught how, in general.

Someone said that it seems the only options are death by gimmicks or death by boredom.

Reading good literature is countercultural.
