True that! Also I was born in 1963 and we have always been encouraged to read the Bible. I had the little baby picture Bible, then I had a first reader Bible, then we had, "The Way", Bible. The for Confirmation we got the Revised Standard, you know the red one.

I read the readings and I have read the entire Bible a few times. Now I tend to skip Numbers and Judges, Kings, because frankly they bore me to tears.

I can probably recite the Gospel according to St. John, because he is my favorite. I would never do it, because if I were to leave out an "and" or "but", some Protestant would scream SEE! SEE! You don't know the Bible.

Today is the day that Elizabeth finds out she is with child and that child will be John the Baptist!

Funny story Salvation and my fellow Catholics. We were discussing one year for Bible School, how we could do the NT more. Like John the Baptist and all, we did the eating honey and locust thing, with the gummy worms and ground up Oreos and we kind of went through the whole head on a platter thing real fast. :)

Those ands and buts are more important than the bigger words...
