Looks like the non-pleasin' when it comes to baseball crosses the religious spectrum!<BR/><BR/>I have problems with Catholic theology as well. However, I regularly tune into ETWN - a Catholic cable network - to catch programs on Catholic Orders of Men (i.e., Jesuits 'n' Dominicans, etc.) and the "great heresies," which includes Protestantism of course. Very, very fascinating.Joltin' Djangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429922320420919497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8757536908648652507.post-72021701187296113022009-04-02T09:32:00.000-05:002009-04-02T09:32:00.000-05:00I think the world will survive if the Tigers start...I think the world will survive if the Tigers start the game early in the day.pope benedictnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8757536908648652507.post-56829003497904818612009-03-30T16:35:00.000-05:002009-03-30T16:35:00.000-05:00I think it is pure coincidence.

I don't think the Tigers meant to offend anybody. <BR/><BR/>It seems like many major spiritual/religious holidays have gotten watered down in recent years. That's why I thought it was refreshing that somebody was actually saying something about this.<BR/><BR/>Then again, I'll be working all day Good Friday. I guess I'm the guilty one when it comes to all this watering down.Chris Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15231067247302746975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8757536908648652507.post-7854068637800569892009-03-30T07:56:00.000-05:002009-03-30T07:56:00.000-05:00Did they set the start time intentionally as such?...Did they set the start time intentionally as such? "We will start today's game at the time of the crucifixion?" Or is it pure coincidence? I don't see why the RCC would make a fuss. Games will be played on Easter Sunday. Most of the football season is played out on Sunday. I'll have to read up on the issue; I must be missing something. <BR/>Of course, I'm the guy that wishes <I>all</I> businesses except for emergency services were closed on Sundays.Mister Jimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691485087138371023noreply@blogger.com
