....but apparently it never went through. It was about how Protestants replace Jesus with the Bible, and while doing so, accuse their Catholic counterparts of worshiping Mary and the Saints, when in fact those who do worship Mary/saints are not staying true to the Catholic faith. I'm upset with my Protestant upbringing because it taught me that the Bible was holy (only God can be holy). And I didn't hear much about Jesus: more from St. Paul than anything (yet we continue to accuse those Catholics of being the ones worshiping the saints). My long, drawn-out complaint about the ambiguity and inconsistency of the Protestant schism has been, thankfully for you, reduced to this mere paragraph.
So I'll leave it at that and continue on just to apologize for not posting in a long time. Suzan's passport still has not been processed (and hence, neither has she completed the visa process). So I'm going to go to Uganda for the summer instead of her coming here. It's going to be great - sleeping and waking with the sun, visiting neighbors and strangers and old friends. All of those fantastic things. It will help my body and emotions cover from a semester of straining unrest. Oh, not to mention, I'm going to see Suzan. That's not just the icing on the cake. It is the cake. I will stay with her family and finally get to see her village of Oyam.
