Thought of something else late last night
...You just said, in so many words, "If you're not worshipping Christ you're not worshipping God... I couldn't have said that anyway, because it's not true. The Catholics worship God but don't worship Christ, (if I remember correctly), and just because they aren't worshipping Christ doesn't make them not worship God. Nightowl >8#

Weird
I thought the Catholics believed Jesus was just a man, Mary's son, or was that the Jews?
I'm probably mixed up. My point is though, that some religions don't recognize Jesus as the Christ, but they worship God, so the only point I'm trying to make regardless of what group it is, is that it is possible to worship only God without additionally worshipping Christ.
Thanks, Box.

Islam?
I think that they consider Jesus to be a prophet and $DIETY = Allah. Since Christianity is derived from Judaism, I doubt that they would have a position on Jesus. Catholicism and its derivitives all recognize Christ as far as I know. My knowledge is less than encyclopedic...

Nicene creed is the usual one.
[link|http://www.iclnet.org/pub/resources/text/history/creed.nicene.txt|Nicene Creed] is the normal recital at mass, though at times (based on the Calendar) the Apostolic Creed is used instead.

Permanently stuck on Mardis Gras?
Or fat tuesday? :-)
Oh, and I think the answer is Easter.
(Note: going to Catholic schools for 13 years, I should know this... but obviously don't). :-)

I enjoy them both
My children are born ins, which is why I go. My wife was brought up very strictly, so hates going except for those 2 occasions.
thanx,

Or for the New Age Christians
The Buddy Christ (From Jay and Silent Bob movies):
[link|http://shop.store.yahoo.com/jsbstash/budchrisdass1.html|http://shop.store.ya...udchrisdass1.html]
The New Age Christian creed is "How much stuff can I get away with and still get into Heaven? Christ is my buddy, and will let me into the back door of Heaven if need be."
