Mass at the monastery

[MrFluffyWolf]

Totally random question from someone who doesn't know:
But is mass ACTUALLY 2 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hours long and do you have 2 of them a day IRL?
Cause this feels like the biggest pain in my ass this whole section of the game.
I know I know, if that's how it is, that's how it is. Gotta portray it "right"
But ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is it a waste of time, no offense.

Whoo.. okay. I guess if it's just a monk thing that makes sense. 2 hours on Sunday isn't that big a deal. Still would rather not but at least that's doable.

To serve God? That's the point of their religion and i can't judge.

I was mostly joking.
Though, I still have always wondered how cloistered religious orders justify their need to exist.
Are they of the opinion that what they're doing is the only way to serve God? Would anyone not doing what they're doing not be admitted to heaven in their opinion?
If I wasn't joking, that's what I'd mean by "what's the point?"
Because lets be real, 8 hours of prayer twice a day means you literally never accomplish anything of value or produce anything of value in your life.
