Church seats

Daithi 1

Been to a few different churches recently for funerals weddings and such, they all have the same horribly uncomfortable seats, it always digs into my spine!! What's the deal ? Do they do this to prevent good worshippers dozing off during mass ?
When you are requested to kneel down though, it's fine, they have a cushion think there to support ones knees..
I thought that was nice...

Sitting comfortably.. NO!
On your knees.. Oh yes !

My mom's a prod and her church (formerly mine I suppose) has cushions on the seats and you kneel down on little cushions instead. Gotta have a good product when you're trying to lure customers from an established brand I suppose :pac:

Bring your own inflatable chair. That Homer one's good.

Any time I have to go to church, I never know when to stand up, sit down or kneel. I wish they'd just pick one & stick with it.

They uncomfortable felling symbolises the suffering and sacrifice Santa Clause goes through every year at Christmas sitting in that sleigh for 24 hours to deliver us our presents.

It's a bit rude not to show up for a wedding.

Even more so for a funeral, which is odd considering the main event is deceased.

I'm not sure if you're messing but now that I think of it there was free tea and biscuits afterwards! What have I got for being an atheist, fuck all!

Ah here,you can't have your cake and eat it!

Church seats are uncomfortable unless you have a fat padded ass. Forget about the kneeling thing can't be bothered.

But I bet you can still recite that profession of faith thing with everyone else without reading from the sheet.

Fecking brainwashing by association! :eek:

Whatever about your wedding, it'd be bad form not to show up for your funeral.

Who sits at Mass.

Just stand down at the towards back from a 45 degree angle and survey the talent.

TwoShedsJackson

Church pews will always make at least one of sitting, kneeling or standing uncomfortable. Two if the maker was extra religious.

Come back to me when you can hum it in Irish

StephenHendry

the seats are not designed to be comfortable OP, i know only too well as everytime i go back home, i have to attend mass on sat eve or sunday. what gets me is at this time of year, the place becomes an icebox where you literally sit there and freeze for half an hour

philstar

protestant churches are worse, real old wooden pews uncomfortable as hell and creeky when you sit on them
