I always envied the Catholics - at least they have saints to pray to, they have the Virgin. Forget monotheism, humans are too much for one measly god.
Now I have to think of the class this week where we somehow ended up with the topic saints and you could very much tell the non-Catholics from the Catholics because one part could easily name several saint + their feast-days while the other just stared at us with that 'WTF is wrong with you people'-look
In unrelated news this book is awesome
