Heya Ladies....gosh these threads have gone all around the houses...and I have to admit yesterdays post(mine) made me feel angry and upset...with a mild emotional hangover lurking today.
Dotsie, you called me Pope.....that made me giggle!!! I do not regard myself as knocking any organised religion either. I remember as a very young girl going to my first Irish mass(I was pretty good at our mother tongue back then....until they stopped the teaching of by law...and we were taught French instead!!!!).It was so beautiful...the full glory of the rituals in the mass was there to be seen. The spoken gealic mass was not a direct translation of how it was said in English and most could not understand it...sad I know. It was in this type of mass I could see hear and feel the true and pure message. The masses only happened once or twice a year.
I try hard not to harbour ill will and remember that such purity only became tainted by the powerful and greedy.
