God Bless All!

Don't feel bad. Do you how many years I spent in catechism class? As a kid? Every Saturday?(shudders)

This is what people forget, isn't it? Kids have to do at least 9 years of weekly Religion classes, but because they are children at the time, and it's just part of their normal routine, It's overlooked.

What if we made adult converts do the same nine years of Catechism that we make our Catholic kids do?
