Default The Most Catholic & Least Catholic Thing You've Ever Done?

What was the most Catholic thing you've ever done? And the least Catholic?

Just curious about others' experiences.... I don't think I have any on the "most" side....

Most Catholic? Turned down going out with my friends on a Saturday night so I could go to Confession.

Least Catholic? Umm, trying to become Mormon. That's pretty uncatholic I think.

Default Re: The Most Catholic & Least Catholic Thing You've Ever Done?

Most Catholic: going on a pilgramage for 2 weeks that involved walking on average 25km/day with a group of people, having morning and evening prayer and mass every day, and then joining thousands of others who did the same in Assisi.

Least Catholic: not standing up for my faith in certain situations and failing to evangelise when I had the chance.

Most Catholic: Stage managing medieval Passion plays at university and caring behind the scenes for my mother figure (at God's request), who was directing and required a lot of support

Most Catholic: leaving a Friday evening cocktail party to go to adoration for two hours. Yes, I was sober. The party had ended by the time I returned.

Least Catholic: converting to Tibetan Buddhism. Not my most inspired decision.

I'm not really sure how to measure this.

Most Catholic: Gone to Mass.
Least Catholic: Not gone to Mass.

Aha, so there are others who aren't perfect either.


Least: Most recent, kinda sorta yelling at my priest in front of the whole church. Apparently taught some of the Bible school kids some new words in the process.

Most: Going back, starting over. Finding CAF and even though I don't always agree with other posters, trying to go by their example.
