One of the most common questions I'm asked is whether being a priest is a rewarding life, and my answer is an unequivocal "yes!"
I post this story and link for our members here to perhaps consider a career in the Church. It is never too late to answer the call.

Here's a question, and every Christian should know this...
Who was crucified for our sins?

I'm just saying, Prometheus's story is basically the story that became Lucifer.
Odin is pretty cool though. Some hippie folk tried to convince me I was odin incarnate so I would keep hanging out with them
