Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 199 - Dumb Poll of the Month
My FIL goes out to Chinese food on Christmas Eve. He is Catholic as you can get. Goes out after 4 o'clock Mass. He told lilnsl he hangs out with the Chinese, Cambodians and Jews at the restaurant. THen he paused and said- I don't go to a movie tho. I go home. lilnsl cracked up. lilnsl sat with FIL. He tries to use 'the book' to follow along in the service. Loses it because they are doing the Christmas service instead of Christmas Eve because 'Catholics think they should change the days or be across the international date line'. Try to explain logically why Catholics have such rigid rules that going to Mass before 4 o'clock results in some sort of religious mayhem for your soul for the week. THe dialogue between them was a hoot. If God died for our sins why do you make up a bunch of rules to make people feel bad instead of being happy they care enough to go to church? I almost disgraced myself by howling with laughter right in the pew. I had to turn away and missed the answer.
Happy Christmas to those who celebrate!
Good Morning Lodge!
