Then, there was confession. Sins always sounded so much more wicked when confessed in whispers. All those long vowels and hissing sounds.

Still, I always felt compelled to embellish my sins, to appear even more the rogue (at age 12)

Folks: So can I break the egg of a bald eagle?
Progressives: No, that is killing an eagle and against the law.

Progressives: No, it is a baby eagle waiting to hatch.
Folks: So the thing is, isn't it a clump of cells until it's born?
Progressives: That's correct....Um, no wait.

I once confessed that I purposely destroyed frozen goods at my local Walmart store to prove some idiotic point. The good Father was kind, and for penance instructed me to start a list of businesses to avoid as a public service to others. It has since become a lifelong passion of mine.

And the back-pedaling begins.

Challenge all you want.....I too am a recovering Catholic so I understand better than you might think. you wouldn't pull that with African, Muslim, or other 'protected' groups expressing their faith.

Yes. Out of the utmost respect for their faith, we mustn't mock or ridicule these devout, self-flagelling religious zealots.
