Pope Says Don't Do THIS on Sundays

No more watching movies or football games on Sundays. Pope John Paul II has decreed that Roman Catholics should reserve Sunday as a day for God only and not for secular diversions, such as entertainment and sports, reports Reuters. "When Sunday loses its fundamental meaning and becomes subordinate to a secular concept of 'weekend' dominated by such things as entertainment and sport, people stay locked within a horizon so narrow that they can no longer see the heavens," the pontiff said in a speech to 35 Australian bishops, who recently made a pilgrimage to the Vatican. The pope blasted what he called "the pernicious ideology of secularism."

Interesting. So, if we have any Roman Catholics on the forum, they can tell us how much reverence and importance they'd give to Pope's commands.

Most christians I know in real life are Protestants (in US) and are mostly self-proclaimed CEO Christians (Christmas Easter Only), which presumably means they could care less about such 'orders'.

Am also interested.

Very true. You just forgot the Marriage, Burial and In-Crisis lot.
