CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm sure that would be something rather enjoyable to do.ukok said:
But I guess England doesn't have too many Catholics? Expect of course London, which has many different kinds of immigrants, and I'm sure many of them are Catholic?

I would LOVE to do something like that, Andreas....i doubt i'll ever be in a position to be able to thoughAndreas said:I'm sure that would be something rather enjoyable to do.
as for the ratio of Catholics in the country...i'd say we were pretty much a substantial mass, not as much as the C of E , obviously, but, still., a substantial MASS Matrona...all the best online stores are in the U. S and incurr shipping charges and taxes upon receipt into this country, in addition to the costs of goods...i have limited financial recources, unfortunatley. I have been searching online to purchase First Holy Communion product's for my children...it's almost impossible! the choice is strictly limited, and very expensive.

1 in 10 people in Engalnd is Catholic
10% of the population
there are quite a lot of us most of which are not in London (high immagrant population from muslim areas).
most cradles are either traced back to Ireland, Scotland or mainland Europe. Due to the reformation and stuff there are very very few English (as in past 3 generations were all English) Catholics.
I have mixed Irish Scotish roots.

Mark is quite correct
My paternal Catholic roots are in Italy (my Mum is an English convert)
The registers of the Catholic schools in England are a mixture of Italian, Polish and Irish names with a few English names thrown in for good measure
Ukok, Ebay.co.uk has some Catholic sellers.
(one in particular I'm very imprssed with - I ordered a new rosary (for 6.49) and received a free prayer card and a free glow-in-the-dark rosary too!)
If your church doesn't have a shop, I'm sure another Catholic church nearby might have one

My father runs the shop in his church. He has great fun once a year going to an exhibition in Bristol where he orders things for the shop. He always stocks up this time of year for First Communion and Confirmation. We also have a "Catholic Truth Society" shop in town, attached to the Cathedral.
But if you live in Mid or West Wales, you have to travel miles for a Church, let alone a shop.
