I also love Catholicism, although I am confused and baffled by many things, particularly their repentance process. <br /><br />After reading Jan Karon's wonderful Mitford series, I learned many things about Episcopalians - which made me curious about the different sects of the catholic church as well. All very interesting.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04248022148272460291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-66561319873963269242010-04-07T09:18:45.016-07:002010-04-07T09:18:45.016-07:00I took a class on Catholicism due to my love of ma...I took a class on Catholicism due to my love of many Catholic friends who couldn't tell me much of anything about their religious structure.<br /><br />I'd be happy to loan you any of the 11 books required for that class, including all the Papal Encyclicals!<br /><br />Or, we could have a chat about it, and I'll tell you everything I know as a pseudo-Catholic.Liz the Poethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15910096677909941425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-63708267485479176432010-04-07T08:18:50.775-07:002010-04-07T08:18:50.775-07:00Oh Atticus!Oh Atticus!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00726932051133705968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-55217854660910348062010-04-07T07:40:15.273-07:002010-04-07T07:40:15.273-07:00So jealous of your trip!So jealous of your trip!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00603597517131769123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-34314291723293021062010-04-07T06:59:57.466-07:002010-04-07T06:59:57.466-07:00I have also been to a Catholic wedding mass.

We had a program that was supposed to explain what was happening next, but mostly we just kept our eye on Tim's Catholic coworker that was sitting next to us so we knew when we were supposed to stand and stuff. Mostly, it was SUPER LONG. I think it was over an hour. The best parts: 2 Irish priests performing the wedding, accents and all, and the bride wore one of those fabulous cathedral length trains. It was so Sound of Music.Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765577345097519255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-62687001134287328382010-04-07T06:48:54.396-07:002010-04-07T06:48:54.396-07:00Your LA adventure reminds me of a time years ago w...Your LA adventure reminds me of a time years ago when Wendy, Liz and I went to LA to go to MOCA. We encountered a rather obscene display of nude photography. But no...the obscenity of it all did not stop there! We also encountered a flasher at the Pershing Square station.

If I remember correctly (it was a REALLY long time ago) mass still done in Latin, and they had a book that had the hymns and the stuff to say for every day of the year. As for when to kneel and stand, I just followed what everyone else did, but it seemed like we would kneel to pray, and stand to say things.Taylor Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00587603166166901778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-56046886804959768982010-04-07T02:16:58.193-07:002010-04-07T02:16:58.193-07:00I was actually technically "blessed" by ...I was actually technically "blessed" by a priest from St. Mary's in Chino... James, Angie and I had a VERY lame braned idea to "run" a 5 K and it was sponsored by St. Mary's and a priest blessed us with holy water and everything.. we were baffled and felt a little in the dark because there were people with their roserie's there in the parking lot in their running shorts getting ready to go... Ahhh to be young again.. i'm with you im facinated.. I have gone to a Catholic wedding that was a Mass.. it was VERY confusing.. looks like you had fun!!!<br /><br />April 7, 2010 2:14 AM<br />p.s. apologize for the above deleted comment..
