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?

It's cool with me.

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.

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.
