Catholics are blessed to know:  we are Actors in The Big Movie.  The set decorations extend from what appear to be galaxies stretching as far as we can see down to the atoms that make our toenails.  The Big Movie set was provided to give every Actor  free will.  No Actor is forced to believe in The Producer, Writer, and Director behind the scenes of The Big Movie.

As we write our lines and play the role we choose, all Actors have one goal:  “I want Approval from the other Actors!”

Actors begin by choosing our costumes.  Our costumes include clothes, cosmetics, cars, and collectables that give us Approval.

We also find Approval through Causes.  Causes are our  “costumes for the mind.”   Causes tell us where we, and other Actors, are on The Stage.  Some want to protect “The Environment”.  Others realize that it’s important to “Protect the right to bear arms.”   Some Actors support Pro-Life causes.  Others promote abortion.  Every Actor dresses themselves in Causes.

Some are blessed to realize:  “I have an immortal soul.  I want it to go to Heaven after my performance in The Big Movie.  I want God’s Approval!”  More confusion!  45,000 Protestant groups, each invented by an ambitious Protestant man with a Marketing Plan, cry “WE can get God’s Approval for YOU!”

Catholics are blessed to know:  “I will bet my immortal soul on He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies at trillions to one odds.  He told us, fourteen times, ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’

Catholics are blessed to know:  “That is the most bizarre thing anyone ever heard!  But, He did found One Church to provide That Holy Food.  He said to one man, about The Only Church He Founded:

“Verily, verily I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”

Catholics are blessed to know:  “It is more important to have God’s Approval than anything else on the set of The Big Movie.
