Church: You Can't Give An Hour To Him?

First off, Merry Christmas!

Second off...

I'm pissed.

There were a few boys farther down in my row ON THEIR PHONES. One had their phone close to their face, one had their head down with earmuds playing a video game most of the time and the other was leaning over with his.

That totally ruined my time at the church.

Every time I tried to refocus my attention on the priest (or whatever his title was), I couldn't enjoy my time. I was too busy being internally angry at these people.

THEIR PARENTS DIDN'T EVEN GIVE A SHIT.

Toward the end of the mass, I looked across the aisle randomly and saw someone with their airpods on and on their phone the whole time. They didn't even look up until the closing performances.

I know I shouldn't judge.

God is the only one who can, but even if they don't believe in Him, they could AT LEAST respect him.

THOSE PARENTS NEED TO RAISE THEIR KIDS BETTER. I KNOW I WILL.

AT LEAST TAKE AWAY THEIR PHONES FOR AN HOUR OF THEIR TIME!

UGH.

I don't think people did that at my old church. Unless people did, but I've gotten more observant since then.

BUT SOME PEOPLE!
