Catholic have a certain aurea around them that the world must see at times.

Or do you mean aureole? A little windex will get that right off. [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif[/img]

For the record, you don't need to be Catholic (which I pronounce Cath-lic) to know anything about St. Augustine (or how to pronounce his name). All you need to do is take early medieval history in college. We even read him. So, be careful, the person you're talking to may not be Catholic, just a history major.

I only say Rosary beads, when I'm speaking to Sister Rosary Bede, the phamous member of the Phatmass Phemale Community. The Venerable Bede is one of my favorite saints. The name "Sister Mary Christmas" is still open if anyone wants it.

The scapular IS a giveaway--although not a linguistic giveaway.

I wonder if that's what the Pope does when he declares someone not a "real" saint.

I assume that if you're no longer a saint, you lose your halo. Windex takes that aureole right off. (Go back to K of C's misspelling of "aura.")

Never mind. If I have to explain a joke....

Aurea is Latin for 'golden', aureole derived from the Latin.

Well, Mr. Show Off (who simply looked this up in the dictionary anyway), at the moment we are speaking English, and in English, it is either aura or aureole (or sometimes aureola). [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/P.gif[/img]

Added note: According to Wikipedia, "aurea" may refer to a number of things, including an Italian car, but I don't see a halo, or "golden aura" on the list. Of course, this was the English version of Wikipedia, not the Latin version. [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurea"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurea[/url]

I have no clue why anyone thinks they're so cool when they speak Latin. It simply means you took Latin in school. That's nice.

I'm a Traditional Latin Catholic, it is second nature part of my being, not showing off. Aurea is Latin and it means Golden, Wikipedia shouldn't be trusted to say the sky is blue.

I have no clue why anyone thinks he is so cool when he speaks English. It simply means he was either raised in an English speaking environment or studied English later.

AuGUStin sounds weird to me. But I'm just a silly European.
