I love it. I think it's very accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't join any church if I had to memorize verbatim a list that long {whew!} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remembered the Apsotles Creed and such-and although I've never been Catholic I can recite most of the rosary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
