no it's no odd...that is the beauty and the curse of religion. we can take the parts we like out of it.

i may be wrong---the BALTIMORE CATECHISM, not to be confused with the Orioles, may have changed since I was in school....but being inquistive kids we asked about all the people who were not catholic and what happened to them....
that was the story we were given....

I wonder if Sister Mary Torquemada is still about??? she'd know....
