Although I didn't go to Catholic school for more then two months in 2nd grade (long story), I have been bombarded with it since before I could speak...my folks are "very Catholic", being the best way to say it. <abbr><em>Dennis Edell’s last blog post..<a href="http://www.directsaleswebmarketing.com/top-commenter-contests-officially-speaking/" rel="nofollow">Top Commenter Contests - Officially Speaking…</a></abbr></em> LOL no worries, everyone is busy. :)

You took my "sore spot" too seriously. Having spent a lot of my younger years in a Catholic boarding school "Religion" seem to be a sore spot with me. When I was in chool I had too many questions and no answers. Now, at the ripe age of 76 I think I've found my own answers. <abbr><em>Joyce’s last blog post..<a href="http://health-is-natural.com/green-lipped-mussels/" rel="nofollow">Green-lipped mussels</a></abbr></em> Hey Dennis,

I was playing off an old military saying, "There's no atheists in foxholes", basically meaning people that normally wouldn't turn to a higher power of some kind tend to when times are rough. Now whether that's hypocritical or not is, I suppose, an individual feeling. @ Mirjam - You're right, they are two different things. I for one am somewhat spiritual yet not very religious.

To start with I don't think there too many people with all limbs missing. I don't see what being an atheist has to do with not missing all 4 limbs. Unless you mean that if an Atheist loses his limbs he'd become religious? If you're a limbless Atheist you just would not have a God to blame it on, in my "not so humble" opinion. Somehow you might have a point though. Apparently now times are pretty lean more people seem to attend churches. To me it shows the hypocritical overtone of some religious people. Don't get me wrong...I'm not trying to criticize you. It just hit one of my "sore" spots. Joyce Hi Dennis,
