    I’m not sure what that last paragraph was about, but I was extremely religious throughout highschool. Like, leading youth group retreats and all.

    Catholicism comes in many forms for many people. The OP could be legit. My family struggled with the idea of fantasy. It was a strongly held belief that dabbling in things that tilted occult would result in possession. An actual conversation I had with my mother was that Magic the Gathering would result in demonic possession, which would not be fixed because the Catholic Church officially stopped exorcism after Vatican II.

    Some people take Catholicism more seriously and at seriously more weird ways than you can imagine from “having a Catholic friend.”
