As a Catholic - I will refuse to do what the Pope asks, because he is wrong.
As for some on this thread mocking Catholics - do I get to mock the holy roller crowd as well - is that cool with all of you?

ANd really, those folks are ripe for the mocking. Ever look or listen to them? The gist of the theology is "I found Jay-zuz, and now I can pay my mortgage." Jesus as Tony Robbins.

I'll not mock anyone's faith in here.
As a Catholic I do believe in a Just War Doctrine. We are free in our faith to determine ourselves if we feel this meets the critera of a Just War.
I for one will fast on Ash Wednesday,(actually I always do.) If it helps me reflect on this great and awesome endevor we are about to undertake, I believe it is a good thing.

As a Catholic - I will refuse to do what the Pope asks, because he is wrong. I am also a Catholic, and am I wrong in believing that Ash Wednesday is already a day of fasting? Perhaps I am wrong about that, but my understanding would be to fast on Ash Wednesday. From the New Advent website:
Ash Wednesday
The Wednesday after Quinquagesima Sunday, which is the first day of the Lenten fast.
