You Know you're Catholic when

[avemaria40]

Ok, I thought it might be fun to make this list, so if it's an old one, i'm sry, but i thought i might have a bit of fun.
So, you know you're Catholic when
1. your fav celeb is the Pope
2. Catholic is the first word you use to describe yourself.
3. ur greatest ambition is to be a saint
4. ur friends ask you what ur doing this weekend, and u always say, "Mass"
5. Ur idea of a perfect date is praying the Rosary and going to Adoration together

Ok, anyone got any more?

6. You know you're Catholic when you feel the urge to do the sign of the cross after the Pledge of Allegiance.

You keep a mental map of the locations of all Catholic Chuches in all towns you go through, so you can shoot a mental greeting over to the tabernacle whenever you get within a few blocks...

[avemaria40]

when at the pledge of Allegiance, you start saying an Our Father.

[FutureSoror]

you have ever absent-mindedly done the sign of the cross instead of clapping at the end of a speech. (This routinely happened to me in elementary school).

When you just close your eyes, and see His face and look into his eyes and get you know that you are in love with Him.

When you're watching Star Wars and when people say "May the force be with you" you expect them to reply, and "also with you."

When you feel guilty for turning the channel on t.v. if you come across a televised Mass.

[PadrePioOfPietrelcino]

You spend hours a week posting on Anti-Catholic website honing your apologetics skills, instead of studying.

You plan on having a party, the first 12 invitations are to priests (really I did)

You would be estatic if you woke up tomarrow and could suddenly speak in Latin...

...It wouldn't bother you if you no longer knew English.

If on 9/11 you went to a Church, neglecting your delivery duties, even though it put you job in jepardy...(and prayed half the day)

I LIKE THAT.

OR when you hear the name of a city you can name what Monastery of nuns they have. I'll do this and my roommate cracks up.

OR I'll hear a date and I can name what MAJOR feast day it is.
I do this too and my roommate thinks it's fascinating.

OH YEAH #2 That is the FIRST word I use to describe myself.
OR give as a reason for doing what I do.

I have a small ministry and when I was interviewed for the paper the first reason I gave was that I AM CATHOLIC. I loved the look on the reporter's face.

I do it... for me it indicates that my allegiance applies to what can be "in the name of the father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit," and not to things that aren't.

Let's see...

You know by heart all the confession times in every parish in your city.
Your away message usually is in Latin or is a traditional prayer.
You greet everyone wishing them "Happy Obscure Saint's Day," regularly. (Happy Feast of St. Martin de Porres!)
You write JMJ on your schoolwork.
You make the sign of the cross, fold your hands, and pray before tests.
You untangle your scapular, crucifix, and saints medals several times a day.\
Your picture on thefacebook is a prayer card featuring your patron saint.
