The Spaniards aren’t grateful to the one thing that kept their national unity when conquered by the Moors.

No, I'm sorry, it was conquered by the Moops.

I think it’s ok to answer this one. A Marian church is typically one that is named “Our Lady Of...” Mine is Our Lady of Walsingham. These churches simply have a bit of a special devotion to her. We have a shrine to her near the back of the property. THere is a statue of Mary with the Child Jesus, a fountain... it’s just a nice place to sit, and sometimes we process there on special feast days. Vandals have smashed the statue on several occasions. It’s unfortunate, but most unfortunate for those who have such hate in their hearts.

Maybe you shouldn't point that out. Cronos might be a bubble boy.

Secularism, or Islam?

Secularism is merely the bridge cultures cross when moving from Christianity to Islam.

We have a statue of Mary in a little grotto in the front yard of the rectory. A year or so ago someone took her, she was missing for months until the police raided a drug house and found her thrown in the backyard.

I guess she was praying for them because they got caught and maybe they’ll get clean in jail.
