Some Goan Catholics have become Hindus. That is why
they do not follow Catholic customs. Some Hindus have
become Catholics. Many Catholics and Hindus have given
up the Goan custom of casteism. Many believers have
become non-believers. A few atheists have found one or
more post-modern gods.

If I am not mistaken, St. Catherine of Alexandria is not the Patron Saint of

An interesting question posed on Goanet was---Would it be true to say
that the 'nostalgia' of second or third generation Goan expats
reflects more the realities of Goa of the 1940s and 1950s, then say
