Do priests still wear black clothes and a white collar?
I saw a flock of nuns today in full habbit and it occurred to me that I haven't seen that in a long time. Even 25 years ago when I was in catholic school most of the nuns didn't wear the full on penguin thing.

3. My grandfather used to go to Atlantic City with his priest buddy
He wouldn't wear the collar in the casino because the old ladies would give him dirty looks...lol

5. Growing up Catholic...
most of the priests I came in contact with were good people, even the nuns...for the most part :P

I'd still be a practicing Catholic today if I just believed in God...minor details
