You know you are a Roman Catholic when

[sungirl]

…you even feed your cat fish on Fridays :whacky:

I love this!

When ritual sacrifice seems completely normal to you.

…when you practise kneeling in the fitting rooms to see if the new clothes are going to work properly.

 

[BouncingBall]

…

… you plan vacation time and personal days around Holy Days of Obligation.

LOL.

Also, if you find yourself genuflecting before sitting down at the movies.

And now it’s, “And with your Spirit.”

Doh! it is now “And with your Spirit.”

 

[anodos]

…you take videos of your cat trying to fight her way into the box of paczki so you can post a “cat-lic” joke on facebook.

 

[damian_clarke]

… the first thing you do in a new town or at a new job is to look for the nearest Catholic church for daily Mass.

Buddy despite any other differences I may have had with you this is one post where I agree with you absolutely.

… you know that SFO is more than just the code for San Francisco International Airport.

… you know the difference between sisters and nuns and can address women religious by their correct titles.

… your parents threatened to sic the nuns on you as a kid, and that threat frightened you more than the prospect of going to jail.

… Sisters scare you a little. Just a little. No matter how old you are.

(Maybe that last one is just for those of us who attended Catholic schools.)

when your teenager starts acting up and you hide a St Benedict medal in her room and regularly sprinkle the room with holy water…

when you hide a miraculous medal in the filing cabinet at work because your boss is anti-Catholic…

when you can’t participate in your daughter’s wedding because she is marrying a divorced non-Catholic in a garden ceremony, performed by a woman celebrant and you know she and her husband may never stop holding a grudge against you…

when you are out to dinner with friends and you make the Sign of the Cross and say Grace…

when your hobby is making rosary beads…

You prefer the taste of the sacramental wine to other wines.

There are 3 fundamental truths about religion: Jews don’t recognize Jesus as the Son of God, Protestants don’t recognize the Pope as the Vicar of Christ, and Baptists don’t recognize each other at the bar on Saturday nights.

When you say a prayer for the Poor Souls in purgatory as you pass a cemetery.

 

[mspeaksbvm]

…

…you spend the first five minutes of the day untangling your scapular from your Miraculous Medal.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one that has this problem in the morning

When your church has 6,000 who attend every week, 80 who attend daily mass, 20 who attend daily rosary and 2 who show up for weekly bible study.

you can’t watch the movie the Da Vinici code without pointing out the falacies.
