Another reason why I pray at

Another reason why I pray at home!! I think a place a worship is Narc heaven(teehee) Going to a place of worship serves two purposes for a narc. He feeds off the other members " so nice to see you Mr Narc" "what are your thoughts on today's sermon "? "Oh, your right Mr Narc " See he is the God in the house of God!! What a perfect place to find another victim, good honest people to prey on. What a model citizen, Don't you think? The masked man loves to pray or did I mean prey! Hunter

Love it Huntere!! You made me smile and laugh! I know firsthand there wasn't a religious bone in his body! It was all for appearance sake!! It's all about the image for mine...even right down to the house of worship as in worship me I have arrived! Sick!

Christ

Supposedly they are spiritually empty although they may go through the motions. Mine went to Catholic school K-12 and attends church every Sun but there is a catch! He goes to church for appearance sake. No joke. He sits in the same pew so the same people see him and he is the local dentist in a small town so they look for him every week. He literally just sits there. He doesn't utter a prayer or a word. When I sat next to him during a funeral mass he was so cold. I was crying (it was my side of the family death) and he did not comfort me once. it was horrible. he was extremely cold.

I think answers will vary.........

.....as widely as there are people. Both my N husband and I are traditional catholics (this is the old form of the Mass said/sang in Latin pre-Vatican 2....other catholics know what I am talking about) and yes, we practised regularly...and I still do without him..all Sundays and all Holy Days of Obligation (Happy Feast of the Assumption to all! By the way, it's today!) I think I had read (and I might be wrong) a lot of narcissist are religious and I think the reason may be they think they can manupulate the image of being religious and "good" to suit them or use the rules of the church to which they belong to twist to their benefit (i.e. "man is head of the household, etc...) Please remember, MOST people that observe their faiths in earnest ARE doing so in earnest. Just like anything, you will always have the "bad seeds" taking advantage of something that is good and beautiful, in attempts to use for selfish gains. I truly believe we need to "give this to God"....let Him pass down His judgement to all people that dare to take what is His, and distort it in any way to hurt any of God's children, which in essence, is ALL of us.

thank you Layla

I agree with what you are saying. It can be so hard sometimes to "let go and let God" but I am trying!

I think the most important thing.......

......as Christians is to remember you are on this path to know, love and serve our God on your "own"........use the gifts he has given You to do these things and with Him you will find your peace and glory. We can only pray for those who have wronged us so greviously and ultimately forgive them for our own sakes.... Two passages for us Christians to ponder and take to heart: Matthew 6:15 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. Matthew 18:21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy times seven. And there it is. It really isn't any clearer than that. love~ Layla

My MIL likes to throw the "if

My MIL likes to throw the "if you were a good Christian you would forgive him and take him back" BS in my face all the time. I finally just told her that we obviously don't have faith in the same god because mine knows that my body and those of my children are to be treated as temples of God and not beaten. I may some day forgive but I will never be so reckless as to accept that kind of treatment for myself or my children at the hands of anyone. Ever.

I am so thankful for this

I am so thankful for this thread. My ex husbands ow is a Christian and suddenly so is he. He has become a pious church going wanker. After denigrating me to the point of destruction he actually sent me and our children a text saying...god bless you all. His sudden interest in religion hurt me deeply. For some strange reason I felt betrayed by god. I have searched all my life for a faith and he just conjured up a perfect relationship with the church. I was also resentful because if he had god in his life he would be happy and at ease and I hated the thought of that too Crazy stuff Traci x

Traci

What you got was the same as what I got. A GIFT in a way... You see, my ex was a Nazarene with his ex wife for years and years, as well as REpublican, now he's a Catholic and Democrat LOL!!! He MORPHED for her, which is EXACTLY what personality disorders do. Try to see it in that way, even though I understand how painful that is. It feels like a slap in the face. I can't imagine my ex as catholic, but the thought is hilarious because I was raised catholic and HIS parents are holy rollers LOL! I'm sure they're not happy about his "conversion" Also, remember, they can't keep that up. It's not who they really are. Just a new mask for a different victim
