You say a prayer (and you really mean it) for the souls of those who think Catholics are deluded and lacking in reality --because you know those poor people are the ones who are really deluded and ‘know not what they are doing’. May God bring them all to faith and understanding through His Divine Son and Lord and His Holy Catholic Church.
 
Your PROTESTANT upbringing is screaming…“NO! You can’t do that!!” but your heart calls Mary “MOM” :love:

Your idea of a GREAT vacation is visiting as many Catholic Shrines as you can find! :signofcross:

Your best friend is Sister Mary Michael at the convent down the street!:nun2:

Your idea of a WAY- COOL- FUN-FILLED- EVENING consists of HYSTERICAL laughter from reading ALL the posts in: YOU KNOW YOU ARE A ROMAN CATHOLIC WHEN…:extrahappy:

Decades ago, my spiritual director suggested I start a program of daily Rosary.

It was a struggle to get going … commuting, working, etc.

But what happened … was nothing short of amazing … I came to “know” Mary better than my own mother … “Mom”!

So, it’s true what you said!

Or you go to SF and try and see as many Catholic Churches as you can…and tag yourself on Facebook at those places…with pictures.
 
…your rosary gets tangled up with your earphones.
YES! I keep my Rosary in my front leather jacket pocket and this always happens! lol.

. . .when you say “and also with you” or “with your spirit” whenever someone says anything that ends with “be with you”
 
You know you’re Catholic when the JW’s come round and you’re tempted to answer the door with a Crucifix in hand and saying “Oh, I’m afraid you’ve caught me in the middle of an exorcism!!”…then you realise that might be sinful.
Laughed so hard I needed to cool off.
 
When doing something against Church teachings (in a dream) and a priest suddenly appears out of the blue, handing out the Eucharist to some faceless person, all the while giving you the “People’s eyebrow.” (The last part is a reference to the “Rock” from WWE)

I do this whenever I pray before sleeping as well.
 
…when your husband/wife bumps you in your sleep and you mumble, “…Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.”
 
You are a typical Filipino Roman Catholic when YOU ARE SUPERSTITIOUS. Hehehe. Well, most Filipino Catholics are poorly Catechized and are very superstitious. Folk Religiosity, that is, the mixing of Catholic faith with animistic practices are still rampant here in the Philippines. That’s a sad reality.

You wake up 3 hours early just to fix a pot of soup for your Monsignor (because Father has a chest cold) and you want to surprise him before daily morning Mass! :signofcross:

The rest of the world wakes up and can’t wait to check their FACEBOOK status and YOU can’t wait to see what was posted on :YOU KNOW YOU ARE… then you spend 20 minutes hysterically laughing at the computer screen while your very confused (Protestant) husband looks at you like you’re a mental patient! :extrahappy:

Hey does anybody else think this is a bit like " you might be a redneck?" hehehe!!!😃

Too funny. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
 
When you are driving down the road…thinking about life’s problems…sigh…and quietly say “Lord have mercy” and your kids in unison say “Christ have mercy”
I love this, sounds like you are doing a great job raising those kids! :clapping:
