The Catholicism page on Facebook cracks me up.

"Credo et Unam, Sanctam, Cathólicam, et Apostólicam Ecclésiam. Amen."

"I believe both one, holy Catholic, and Apostolic Church. Amen."

That doesn't even make sense.

Yeah.....that "et" shouldn't be there I don't think :unsure:

He should probably just quote it verbatim from the Creed, in which case, it would be "Et unam, sanctam, Catholicam, et Apostolicam Ecclesiam."

If he wants to undo the ellipsis, he should make it read "Credo in unam, sanctam, Catholicam et Apostolicam Ecclesiam."

It was a required class in middle school. I have decided on my own to continue taking it. :)

Nihil Obstat

In my high school, we only had a Latin teacher for my grade ten year, and nobody passed Latin 10. Her failure rate was crazy enormous. Around 90% failed or dropped 10, somewhat lower for 20, and only two or three people made it to 30. :P

I would rather devote my time into studying dead languages, like Hittite or Anglo-Saxon than learning this silly living languages.

If J.R.R. Tolkein did it, you can too!
