I’m not a practicing Catholic any more but many members of my family are. One nice thing about being Catholic is that they can greet each other at the liquor store.

Why should you always take two Baptists fishing?

If you take just one Baptist, he’ll drink all your beer; if you take two, they won’t drink any.

Anyone that gets their understanding of Catholicism (or any religion) from the movies should not put their ignorance on public display.

Do you never get tired of stirring things up?

Maybe you should spend more time praying and less online.

What a stale joke.

You’re going to hell for that one. After, of course, you’re done soul sleeping.

The truth certainly can make people squirm in their seat. I’ll admit that. but this scene from Bronx Tale is ..well..it’s real life...just like the movie.

It's a sad, pitiful, and insecure religion that can't be practiced without attacking the religion of others. Take that out of cult-of-personality religions like SDA's and they have nothing left. They'd have nothing else distinctive about them and they would shrivel up and die.

From one who belongs to a church that considers all others heretics and murdered millions during her reign of terror.

Uh...okaay.

I don't recommend you get your Catholic cathechism from Hollywood films.

That’s how Catholic kids explained it to me growing up. Of course I was going to hell anyway because I didn’t believe the same malarkey they did...

Nah, I get it from the offical online Catechism from the church of Rome in the Vatican.

You know, the one that calls for Sunday to be a legal holiday. This one......

Is there anything you know about the Catholic Church that is actually accurate? Put down the Jack Chick tracts and EGW garbage and do some actual research from real historians.
