Years ago, most parents and their children attended mass every Sunday, no excuses 698 posted on 06/28/2005 6:01:53 PM EDT by moog

Yeah...and the Mass was in the Latin, the catechetical teaching was from the old Baltimore Catechism, there were no "coming out" parties for clergy, seminarians had a curfew, and most priests would have dropped dead if they were caught using church funds at a five-star restaraunt. My, my...how things have changed.

Actually, I didn't do that quote. Someone else did. But I did say that people did make excuses for a lot of things. It slmost looks like that's what you did, though some of what you say rings true.
