atari,

What is it that makes you 'Catholic'? If you weren't raised in a religious household then perhaps your parents were not really Catholic. Maybe they were .... nothings. So how are you a 'Catholic'. Did you sign some sort of document?

We are not Christian by dint of our rearing or heritage. And thus we cannot be Catholic this way either as Catholic is really just another name for Christian. One is Christian by accepting the sacrifice of The Christ, on The Cross for our sins and believing upon Him unto our rebirth. You MUST be born again atari.
