You probably should have put this is Caucus. :) Just saying. We had a fair amount at Mass this AM as well. It was a really nice Mass for so early.Yes, probably I should have, but on the other hand, I grow weary of excluding others via the Catholic Caucus designation; the Church never closes its doors to outsiders. However, the words of St. Ambrose are good to follow, and I encourage all other Catholics to consider them:
To avoid dissensions we should be ever on our guard, more especially with those who drive us to argue with them, with those who vex and irritate us, and who say things likely to excite us to anger. When we find ourselves in company with quarrelsome, eccentric individuals, people who openly and unblushingly say the most shocking things, difficult to put up with, we should take refuge in silence, and the wisest plan is not to reply to people whose behavior is so preposterous. --St. Ambrose[emphasis mine]
So true! St. Ambrose was wiser then I. :)
