Someone mentions the Transfiguration being a mystery in the Rosary, and knowing the mysteries by heart you ponder where you missed it only realize a couple days later it is in the Luminous mysteries! ??? :grin:

Honest portrayals don't qualify as bashing. Especially if they're tongue in cheek.
Laugh a little - being self-righteous will give you a migraine.
