Hi: Ana Maria Fernandes (Ref. your Message # 5) 1. Please do not compare your mother-in-law to the highest catholic command, Pope, the Holy See. Was she ever chosen for any challenging position in her life besides being a mother-in-law? I think it is your mother-in-law's surrounding that makes life difficult for her. 2. It is not the priests who want us to recite the Holy Rosary but I think they only remind us about it and do not force us by knocking at our door. I was told by my elders that it was Mother Mary Herself that wanted us to recite the daily Rosary in our homes inorder to keep the family together. You can still do your bible reading if needed, nobody stops you. 3. Catholics are more tolerant and peace-loving than any other religion you would mention. I think you have problems with Catholics around you and I hope you are never a problem to anyone especially to your neighbours. Proud to be a Roman Catholic (Christian).
