Hmm... That would take some brain power. The O.P.s name just popped into my head: Bigfoot Bob. He didn't post much after starting the thread. It had to be started at least one more time as it went over the limit.

I miss that old thread. Some posts were real gems. Hmm... I cannot quite remember the O.P.s name.

I'm betting this has been discussed more than once before, but my quick search didn't reveal anything. Please feel free to redirect me! Ever since BEFORE becoming a Roman Catholic exchanging the sign of peace right after the consecration had bothered me. Just this morning I read the following...

Thanks for that HomeschoolDad! Judging by what po18guy has said about the hostile situation in Turkey I think it may be best for him to avoid hard copies. But I can show him these products and he can decide for himself.

Hey there po18guy! I haven't seen that username in many a year! I'm afraid that this young man is very homesick and can't wait to get back, even though it will mean a few months of military service (which he hates). Shortly after I met him (a few months back) he already was telling me that the...

(I hope the title gets to my point!) I’ve been a Catholic for 20 years now. (Wow. 20 years?) Even before becoming a Catholic I began praying the Holy Rosary on and off. Quite a while ago (decades perhaps) I suddenly realized that my prayer life, which developed while still an Anglican and grew...

I found a number of stories about this: Canada declares April 2 ‘Pope John Paul II Day’ Vatican Radio has a short piece, Canada designates April 2 as Pope John Paul II Day LifeSiteNews has the most detailed story at Canada proclaims annual day honoring Pope John Paul II amidst secularist...

On and off for years I’ve tried to find the melody for the Te Deum we used when I was growing up and Anglican. I have been unable to locate the Te Deum the way we sang it in three different churches (in two different cities) in Ontario Canada. I believe we used the Merbecke setting. (That name...
