He shouldn't have bothered. If he was a real Catholic, he would have realized that was never going to happen as our Pope is a righteous man and would never condone what The Orange Fascist and his Toadies are doing to your country.
Yeah he wouldn't know that actually was. I am a lapsed Aussie Catholic. Here's how it goes in Oz. Practising Aussie Catholics go to church on Sunday. While we're there, we spend time with the priest confessing our sins and doing penance. Then for the other six days, we sin like demons.
Sounds like everyone I know here as well. Thank God for the sacrament of reconciliation. We are completely lost without Christ and His grace received through the sacraments.
Yeah I still can't get over the new names for the Sacraments. Even though my father only went to church for hatchlings, matchings and dispatchings, on the day he died he was given the last rights at his request. But I was informed by the priest, that it was called The Prayer for the Sick and Dying.
P.S. I was surprised my father wanted it. But my father was a bit of an each way bet type of man. Just in case heaven existed, he didn't want to be stopped at the Pearly Gates for not doing all the steps.
