Catholicism In Mexico

a: Catholicism in mexico ~
b: the description below

What: "One reason I cannot stand the conservative Catholic Internet, for example, is because of their worship of the Pope and bishops. As a Latin male, I cannot help but think that such sycophancy is a bit effeminate: "ellos quieren que yo sea el monaguillo del cura" (they want me to be that stupid priest's altar boy). (I don't mean this at all in any homophobic sense.) While I do go to Mass every Sunday and sometimes am edyfied by it, another part of me is spiritually sitting in the town plaza smoking a cigarette, telling dirty jokes to my buddies while I wait for my wife to get out of Mass. You know, how Catholicism is like in Mexico for my compadres."
