Isn't she great?! She's so funny. But she's tough. I wouldn't want to cross her.

" I actually began to look in to some of the catholic belief. For me, and no offense to anyone, it just didn't add up. "

It's funny how different denominations appeal to different people. I always thought that the other denominations didn't add up. ;-) I spent some time in the United Methodist Church, but there didn't seem to be much to it, compared to the Catholic Faith. I went on believing what I always had, but knew that most of that wouldn't be approved of. :-)

It was when someone was bashing the Catholic faith on Ralph's that I came face-to-face with the differences. In defending the faith against these attacks, it became so clear that, to me, the other denominations were lacking some things that are very important to Christianity. The real pressence, the apostolic succession, etc. So, I ended up back in the CC.

Funny how that happens. Someone who was trying to belittle the Catholic faith actually sent one if Her lost sheep home. I figure God sent him. :-)
