You went to a Catholic high school and didn't have a Bible??????I graduated from a Catholic high school in 1957 and by the time that I graduated, I had read through the Bible twice....have done so several times since.
We never had a Bible in our house nor did I ever see one in the Catholic school I attended for almost five years.
Holy moly TC, you graduated high school in 1957? Man, you are older than dirt, but that's ok.
No, I didn't have a Bible, and we did not study it. We did have to listen to the priest in religion class, because we were told we could not read the Bible, unless the priest told us what it meant. We did get catechism, but I was not really interested in ANY religion, so I didn't pay much attention. I was a man of the world, so to speak to speak. I couldn't be bothered with any kind of "religion."
Then, the Navigator dudes came along. What impressed me about them, is they were not hypocrites. They talked the talk, and walked the walk. No one in that "other religion" I was in, ever did that. They GAVE me a ASV, and said read it. I did, that I is why I am no longer in that "other religion."
If others want to remain in "other religions," that's on them. I just want to know how they plan to bluff their way into Heaven, cuz if "religious people" go to Hell, what difference does it all make?
Now, I have Bible studies, and I ONLY invite my Catholic friends, and yes, I have many catholic friends. We have some good discussions. It's ok, I guess. 😄😀😇
