I don't ever remember any fainting at mass and I was raised catholic also. Had a catholic mom. All I remember was that when I was sitting ignoring it all, all of a sudden everyone stood up and I had to also or get smacked in the back of the head. Then they would kneel until my knees ached. This interrupted by own thoughts which were elsewhere and was a nuisance. I remember when I went to confirmation I had to let the priest slap me on the cheek. I was under threat by my uncle that if I ducked he would more than slap me later. When the ceremony had been explained to me at the weekly indoctrination I had gone home and announced no priest was going to slap me.
