I will tell you a story I heard at a get together in Texas earlier this spring. The speaker was speaking to 25,000 people he said what religion are you, there was 5 or 6 thousand different answers, sounded like mumble jumble. He then asked what is the reason we are here, evryone said Jesus end of discussionAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09719120394827011449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874350888994718899.post-9179279509315717642009-04-03T15:18:00.000-05:002009-04-03T15:18:00.000-05:00Katdish, I really appreciate that.

I want to loofah the shower comments out of my mind. :-)<BR/>Pete, I have known that I am Catholic for quite some time. If you want any hel with that, let me know.<BR/>Kathy, where does your mom go to Church now?<BR/>SHERRI, I AM HIDING BEHIND A SWEATER SO IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE I AM POSING. I WANTED YOU TO SEE WHAT I WAS SHOWING YOU, NOT ME.<BR/>Michelle, don't worry about it. I don't expect you to pretend anything. We can both be ourselves.<BR/>Candy, if you have any questions at all about what Catholics believe, ask me. <BR/>And I do agree about not wanting to picture men in the shower. This is not that kind of blog.<BR/>Nick, that's right. Even the Church seasons are about making sure we take time to remember certain things. Of course I can ponder the sacrifice of Jesus in October, but Lent sees to it that I do take time to ponder it. That's what Traditions (and traditions) are for.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18070555200892952455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874350888994718899.post-22556740825559878482009-04-02T20:14:00.000-05:002009-04-02T20:14:00.000-05:00well, you know where I stand on all that stuff I ...well, you know where I stand on all that stuff I actually think Icons and such are pretty cool. The history is about helping people remember the basics of their beliefs. Actually it seems most of the traditions are about remembering the beliefs. Creeds, icons, even the way the cathedrals are constructed are all about remembering and participating in beliefs.<BR/><BR/>That is pretty powerfulNick the Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494956043889392219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874350888994718899.post-75957883079845871332009-04-02T16:19:00.000-05:002009-04-02T16:19:00.000-05:00Sherri, why are you YELLING?

I never understood a lot of the Catholic icons and this was very helpful. I wish I had some of my mother-in-laws things now, rest her soul. Reminders are such a blessing.<BR/><BR/>I will, however, never use my shower scrunchy again without thinking of Pete and his little pink poofy. I don't think the point of his visual aid was to imagine a pastor while in your shower. EEwwww...(no offense to Pete). So I went out and bought a real loofah.Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906584712170733253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874350888994718899.post-59095340391817113822009-04-02T13:18:00.000-05:002009-04-02T13:18:00.000-05:00Very nice Helen.

You have effectively crushed those arguments. We all need reminders, even if they are girly, scrunchie puff balls that we use in the shower.
