[/quote] Aye. I agree. How many of those people are practicing Catholics with a living faith? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelFilo 2 Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Sadly, not as many as there should be. You sign up with a parish, and so technically you belong, even if you fall away, or neglect your Faith. God bless, Mikey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
