You know you've been studying too much Catholicism when...

Why would that be difficult for a Catholic? We say that at the end of The Lord’s Prayer at every mass.

Learn about Catholicism before you cast stones.

Paul

Well, not exactly. We say it after the priest’s prayer–so not without a full stop. And the wording is a bit different.

My converting from Lutheranism family is struggling with this right now, so I have first-nhand experience.

You feel sorry for the Protestants.

 

[pnewton]

You pray in restraunts with the sign of the cross while saying out LOUD!!!, “e nomini patri e fili e spiritu sancti!!!”

When you catch yourself feeling smugly superior to those that haven’t bothered looking into the same Church Fathers you yourself only recently discovered.

When you find yourself dreaming in Latin.

This actually happend to me the other night. I dreamt that I was attending my first TLM mass. I was wearing the mantilla, and everything. Everyone was talking in Latin, and I was responding in latin. Didn’t understand a word, mind you, but I was speaking it . BTW, no, I’ve never been to a mass in Latin. I’m a NO gal.

To all of the protestants who defend us, even though you’re not Catholic:

Thank you!

And maybe you are!!!

 

[Syele]

you defend the Catholics when they are misrepresented.

you realize you just spent a lot of time searching online for the origins of some weird anti-Catholic propaganda picture.

you tell the local guy selling saint icons that there is not a canonized saint named Samantha and he is surprised to find you are right according to his books.

you don’t bother stating your objections because you already know all the possible answers to said objections and you still object.

… you invite Jehovah’s Witnesses into your house and ask them if, by chance, they have a Bible with them …

You know you’re a Catholic when everytime someone in Star Wars says, “May the Force be with you,” you say, “And also with you.”

That was a good one. I’ve actually done something like that.

You know you’ve been studying too much Catholicism when…

When a conservative priests says:

“You’re a fundamentalist.”

“Father is being so post-conciliar today.”

In class. At university. But since I’m Catholic it probably doesn’t count.

Now THAT’S funny!

On Ash Wednesday, when go go up to get ashes, you stick out your tongue.

[so embarrassing]

I was talking with our local priest and he recommended I look up something in McBrien’s “Catholicism.” I had to bite my tongue so I wouldn’t say, “But that book doesn’t even have an Imprimatur.” And I’m not Catholic. Go figure.
