Tsk, are you really that confused that you don’t get the question? Come on…

Semantics…

I LOVE semantics…😃

Sure I got the question - I thought this was supposed to be “light hearted”…:tiphat::extrahappy::bounce:
Ok what NON Catholic church would you choose?

Eastern Orthodox 👍

Unless I was in Canada in which case I’d join Possum Lodge…
I already have their invocation prayer memorized…
“I’m a man,
but I can change,
If I have to,
I guess…”
(But then one of you hall monitors will come by and say "Yeah but there wouldn’t be “non Catholic” churches if they didn’t know what the Catholic Church was, so you have to use a different adjective entirely… wait I dont think they’d have adjectives on that planet, come to think of it, so use a noun… wait…:whacky: lol)

IF: 1) the True Church is not an option and 2) I am living on another planet:
Then I am no longer *alive *so I would be in hell-forever
 
I wouldn’t have to join any Protestant Church-why should I need to go to their church and be instructed contrary to what a Catholic Church believes and if I joined any church it would be like putting their beliefs above my own. In my opinion Protestants have a very superficial interpretation of things and in some cases their beliefs are heretical.
 
On a protestant planet, I’d start my own church with the initials ESPN (Evangelical Sports Protestant Nation) and declare the Lord is my Savior. Must believe in once saved, always saved! Worship would only be before a college basketball or football game and there would be fellowship afterwards by watching the game. 🍿 🍿🍿 We’d cheer for any team with the prefix “Southern” because there would no longer be a Notre Dame. :irish2: But I’d still have this nagging feeling in the back of mind that this really wasn’t right. The early church fathers really acted and spoke as Catholics not Protestants. And that Eucharist thing in bible which Jesus spoke of seemed real and not figurative. I’m confident that I’d wake up at that point and realize it was all a dream.:extrahappy:

James,
If you joined the Orthodox church of Planet OP, I’d join it, too. 👍

Or, the Possum Lodge. :jrbirdman:

I would say High Church Anglican for the liturgy, Lutheran (LCMS) for the conservativeness and the CoC, just because I’m feeling nostalgic today! Lol
 
Well since I rarely went to church before I became Catholic, I probably wouldn’t go a church at all. Unless I decided to be Jewish and then I would have to decide among all of their congregations.

I’m sorry, James. I didn’t know you were ribbing me earlier. So much can be lost in text! That said,…

How do I get into the Possum Lodge?

Possum Lodge continues to use pseudo-Latin in their services (quando omni flunkus moritati - “when all else fails, play dead”) post-Vatican2. If only they were willing to ordain women. 😃

Now the other choice would be obvious. I would claim a vision, get a Helmet, tell everyone that they were wrong and that fortunately I was able to speak to God the Father, God the Son and a couple of other guys…I was given Platinum Plates…, wear the helmet on my face and when I did, I would speak and people would write a book of Nomrom, they have already heard the gold plate thing…Trek across the planet claiming that I was a Prophet and then start the Church of Nomrom:yeah_me:

…I would proclaim myself as the leader, take a bunch of wives, at least 12, :dancing:

and set up 11 Apostles…and say there was no need for the 12th because after I die I will fill the 12th seat and they can then continue waiting for my return:popcorn:

…pretty good, Huh…:extrahappy:
 
I’m not a catholic but if I woke up on Planet Protestant and had to join a church it would be Affirming Anglican Catholic.
 
I would say probably Anglican. I started out that way (before I converted), and attending the old-style Anglican High Mass is in some respects more Catholic than what you get in a lot of Catholic Churches these days. I’ve been to Lutheran Churches too, so I could see that being a popular choice as well.
