Just wondering how many people will be receiving ashes today as it seems to be a dying tradition.
I won't anyway
I think the only ones who should be getting ashes today are the Pope and the Irish bishops who spent the last few days with him. I've never seen an organisation so detached from reality!
Presumably only practising (or mix and match) catholics will get them?
Greek orthodox church
I thought that was pathetic.
Are they Angela's?Seems to be a good few walking the streets in Limerick with ashes,
a girl in work came in with ashes this morning and a couple of people were laughing about it when she went out of the room. I thought that was pathetic.
I thought the thread was about Cricket when I saw the title... just shows how much of a heathen I have become!

Maybe they should just let her practice her religion without sneering at her. She's just quietly getting on with her work, not asking them why they haven't gone to Mass and got ashes as well.
