4. Oh I cannot speak for other Catholics. Or current ones.

This is back in the day when I was growing up.

I have been somewhat horrified when I attend Protestant services with friends from time to time.

It seems like blasphemy to me.

All this constant talk about "Jesus" in this very personal, overly familiar way.
Like they know the guy personally or something.

And call him by his first name.

And the services are so casual.

Actually I am most comfortable in reformed Jewish services on Friday night.
Wonderful sermons, and the correct amount of reverence, respect and meaningful interaction.
Wonderful religious music, soul inspiring prayers.

I do miss the Blessed Mother however.
