8. well, shaking hands with the guy in a pew next to me doesn't make..
me feel closer to God. How I treat other people is what matters. I don't 'see God' in every person I pass. It doesn't mean that they are not created by God or carry his blessings. The 'sign of peace' to me is a stunt which disrupts the flow of the Mass, even in English.

Did you mean to say a mystical time before Vatican II rather than mythical? The Catholic faith & Christianity in general is built upon events steeped in mystery. Most religions do in their own way.
