Telesmith Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 oh oh oh this is funny. We ALWAYS got to church late....always sat in the back. My parents fought tooh and nail to get us to go to church each Sunday. I must have been about 6 when we actually go to church on time and sat aabout 20 rows back from the alter. I saw the priest walk onto the altar area and then it looked like he knelt down and banged his head on the altar. I thought it was soem sort of ritual..at the beginning of mass the proest walks in and bangs his head ont he marble altar. A few years later I asked my mom "Why does the priest bang his head on the altar" and she laughed and laughed and told me he kissed it...did not bang his head on it. It took me a full five minutes to pull myself back together after reading this. Soo funny!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
