Today, my grandmother insisted that Mexicans sacrifice humans every year as part of their Catholic religion. The Swaggart guy on TV said so, and apparently, he can't be wrong, ever. FML
Actually, we do/celebrate certain things that American Catholics don't. For example, we don't really do Santa. Instead, kids get gifts on January 6th for el Dia de los Reyes. So, it's the same religion just different emphasis I guess.
There are all sorts of different flavor a Catholicism. Cajun/AcadianCatholics celebrate Mardi Gras in a bigger way than most other Catholic cultures (not the New Orleans way).
Like the no meat on Friday thing is practices differently. Some people do for Lent and some people do it all year
I realize there are different traditions but they still have the same values, which is what I was referring to. I highly doubt human sacrifice is a disparity between members of the same religion.
Because the muslims worship "this weird terrorist god called Allah," that means Mexican catholics worship "some burrito god by the name Dios," right... Oh and everything on tv must obviously be true, of course.
That's funny I remember palm Sunday, midnight mass and other various things but nothing about human sacrifice...then I stopped attending church years ago so who knows
