Guys! Guys!

It's the vicodin taking, I'm sure, but this is a silly argument! We're all just guessing. Has either of you done a meaningful sample?

Anyway, I would humbly suggest that the real deal is not how many times you've been through [the book in question] but how many times it's been through you.

So what if it's just us who have read it (or in my case, who have read IN it)? Our view is that the Church is a hospital for people with afflictions, and some aren't ready yet, and some will never be ready to read the Catechism. My kid is pretty devout. She's also learning disabled out the wazoo. Not unintelligent, just afflicted with a weird constellation of neuro stuff secondary to myoclonic epilepsy of infancy. (she's lucky to be alive, frankly and we are always rejoicing.)(and if you need any Avon stuff, now you know whom to call, right?) If she EVER reads the catechism I will personally faint.

So enough of this stuff,please, or Ill come break YOUR feet -- just as soon as I can walk again.

You are right. We are having a silly argument. The next time someone insists many Catholics have read the catechism cover to cover I'll just reply with WOW!. See. I'm easy.

As far as feet go, I have had a paralyzed foot for more than 23 years. I'd probably be finished if you broke the other one. :-(

Well, you're certainly not letting your feet get you down.

Prayers for a speedy recovery and first-rate results from the surgery.
