Here, and probably in many other majority Catholic countries, during Easter there was a communal procession to commemorate Good Friday and two weeks ago there was a national mass for Mary. Not to mention, every time I am on the bus and we pass a catholic facility I always see people make the sign of the cross. I would just like to hope that if one puts so much emphasis on traditions that one would also practice the values. Nevertheless, I have noticed a habit of cheating, greed, lust and anger that I would have expected to be lesser if there were a greater presence of Love. I mean, shouldn't there be power in numbers?
It's ironic to me and I am eager to gain a greater understanding on this phenomena. This is just an example of how many of us are just following religion and not seeking a relationship with God.
