Folks must think I am a heathen because they are always inviting me to Church. I was invited to one chruch for the Ministers 40th anniverary celebration, each member of the congregation was asked to give the minister a $400 love offering. As you can guess, I never went back to that one either.
Rob, Catholic are Christians, contrary to what some fundamentalists have been told. There are many varieties of Christian; Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox, and some fringe groups, but anyone having communion is a Christian, as BSM explained. There are differences in communion practices, too, but that’s part of the differences between Catholics and Protestants.
Catholics are Christians. The Catholic church is the largest Christian organization in the world. Amoung Christians you have different group, Catholic, Protestant, Congregationist, orthodox, the list goes on.
LOL MM. hahahahaha. in sunday school my grandmother gave me a dollar to put in the basket but that never went in the basket. it just went for 4 bags of potato chips.
I went to a church service once where the preacher said he didn’t want to hear the sound of coins going into the collection plates, only the sibilant sound of paper money rustling on top of paper money. You know I dug down and plopped some change in the plate. I was the guest of a friend, and needless to say, never went there again.

I love Xmas Mass. If I didn’t have a prior commitment, I really wanted to go to Mass tonight. Maybe I can sneak in for the last hour.
