"and the calendar"

Actually, the Catholic calendar is the only thing I miss about Catholicism. My church doesn't really have a clear Lent and Advent. I do miss the seasons of the church. That's about it, I'm afraid.

My reference to "the calendar" was a little tongue-in-cheek. The Julian calendar is used by the "Old Calendarists" and the Gregorian calendar is used by the "New Calendarists." That pushes Christmas out 13 days for the "Old Calendarists." It's an advantage if you're a "new" and you marry an "old," TWO CHRISTMAS...er would that be TWO CHRISTMAI.
