Well, I actually have, over a vacation. It's not a tough read - the book is just narrow, making it appear to be a huge book. It focuses mainly on the creed. And yeah - I've read the whole Baltimore catechism too.

And when the new Catechism, and the corrected version, were published I assume you read each of them cover to cover. Further, I assume you represent the universe of Catholics.

Why the sarcasm? I was a young child when the Catechism first came out. I have read the most current version of the Catechism. And yes - I did read it cover to cover. And you weren't asking about the whole universe, I was giving you my experience and never represented anything more.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to insult you. My response to you was based on my assertion that, based on the universe of Catholics, close to none had read the Catechism. I was nearly called a liar for saying that.

Individuals, or small groups of people, even several million people, who have read the Catechism is not a substantial number based on the total number of Catholics.

I credit you for your efforts but cannot accept that as proof that Catholics, as a general rule, read the Catechism.

Once again, I am sorry if I insulted you.
