Nah, that's not it. It's not that you keep busy with real life or that pomp and ceremony get in the way of our lives, it's just that when you have the fullness of the Truth (as we Catholics do) you spend considerably more time concerned with it as opposed to things of this world. ;)

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Believers say a statue of the Virgin Mary outside a California church appears to be crying a drop of blood.
The large, white statue is at the Vietnamese Catholic Church in Sacramento, Calif.
Parishioners first noticed the tear falling from the eye last Wednesday.
By Sunday morning, it had turned dark red.
Hundreds of people are coming to see the statue for themselves. Many say it's a sign from God.
The Archdiocese of Sacramento has been asked to investigate.
