Mama was a 'cradle Catholic'. Daddy was raised Baptist, but he joined the Church when I was a baby; when my older sister was confirmed. Mama always said he was a better Catholic than she ever was. ;o)
I learned more about my faith after I became an adult, and wanted to know more. I taught a CCD class once, and these kids were getting ready to be confirmed. They kept complaining about having to take the classes, and I asked them why on earth they'd want to be confirmed into a Faith about which they knew nothing! I also told them NEVER to believe what anyone on ANY network news program said about what 'the Church teaches'. I told them if they had questions to never be afraid to ask the priest to get the real answer. Of course, that could be problematic if you got a priest who was kinda wishy-washy himself.
My b-i-l solved that problem in his parish, though, because he teaches the final year of Confirmation preparation class himself, using the new Catechism. The previous two years have been taught by others, concentrating on Scripture. When the kids are confirmed, he gives each one of them their own new copy of the Catechism. Now they'll have NO excuse not to know exactly what the Church teaches, about anything!

Ah, I see.
I’m looking for a cheaper option to print stickers than CafePress.

That's a lot better-looking than the real thing was.

The real thing looks better now as worm food than he did in life.

Great... now I've got lines from "Office Space" playing over and over in my head.
