My late grandmother ( requiescat in pace) would have said otherwise. Good reason why I profess myself to be a 'lapsed' Roman Catholic. However, I still consider myself to be one, even though I may not strictly adhere to the tenets of the Church. I could have converted a long time ago to Episcopalian, but considering how I rarely attend any church services or other religious activities, it would not have been worth it.
'Nuff said on my part.
