catholic church...

babolaypo65,

The irony wasn't lost on me. I realised it the minute I typed
the two words. :D :D :D

I did want to make the distinction for those who know nothing
about the Catholic church. Thanks.

Yep, I figured the irony wasn't lost on you Lizbud. It reminds me of one my own spelling/listening errors growing up. I always thought the church nearby was called "Cavalry" Church.... but couldn't quite make the name work for me....
:D

My favorite listening error as a child was in the Christmas
hymn O Come All Ye Faithful;

O Come All Ye Faithful

O come, all ye faithful,
Joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.
Come and behold Him,
Born the King of Angels!
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

I remember singing the chorus at the top of my lungs as,

" O come let us side door him" :rolleyes:

HA!!!:D :)

"you people"?
I don't think you would like it if someone said that to you,.would you?
I remember asking you a few months ago, and you said there was not too much of a problem, now you seem to be saying the opposite, that you are isolated and made to feel inferior?
I am not you so of course I do not know, but I would imagine there are idiots that make you feel bad because of who you are, and that's terrible! you can thank osama for that.

oh and now you know why this was moved to this section. :eek:

what's the matter with the front door????:D

Richard,

Believe it or not, that's pretty much what I asked my Mother
when I was a child. We lived in a big old fashioned house with
front,back and a side door which led out to a flower garden.
So the "side door" thing made perfect sense to my childish mind.
But, one time I asked why we had to go to the side vs front door
to visit the baby Jesus, I discovered my "hearing error".We all
had a good laugh about it when I was older. :D :D

I think what Lizbud was pointing out was your spelling. ConFORmation means to bring something into alignment, or into a single way of being. to CONFORM. (like when dogs compete in conformation, they are being judged at how well they compare to a set way of being.)

conFIRmation is the process by which you CONFIRM your faith. (or beliefs, or otherwise make a knowledgeable pledge). Normally I think most people here don't worry about spelling, however in this case the spelling "error" (unless thats what you were going for) has an ironic, and somewhat loaded interpretation.
One that could be used to poke fun at, or diss the Catholic chuch and its members.

I think she was just clarifying the spelling for you.
