Is your Devotion valid?

1. In my experience Cradle Catholics are the least spiritual people I know. They seem to have no real belief in God or anything.

Do you realize how many loyal Catholics a statement like this offends? While you caveat it with “in my experience…,” I would submit that my experience is that, while some “Cradle Catholics” are not well versed in their faith, others have shown me, a convert, what true love of God consists in.

Please think carefully before posting sentences like that.

??? That has been my experience. I REALIZE this isn’t true for all Cradle Catholics. BUT personally… that’s the situation. I STILL haven’t PERSONALLY met a single devout Cradle Catholic in this area. It’s just a geographical thing I think. That’s why I said IN MY EXPERIENCE.

PS: I’d just like to add. I know there are very spiritual and devout Cradle Catholics. I’ve met some of them on this board. BUT it hasn’t been my experience to meet them face to face. It’s unfortunate but ah well!
