Lol! ( well, I like to think I am not that distorted or pious and I was in the convent for 7 years!! But thanks to my Dem., intelligent and no nonsense parents and my 13 brothers and sisters I have somehow come out of the chute strongly liberal, not given to overly devotional expression but very grateful for the church's teaching on social justice and common good, among other things.

More than good for you, not pious in my book (usually think sanctimonious). Being poor and from a large family (8) kept my feet on the ground. Can’t compare to 13 though. Golden Rule was our guide. Teaching of the common good seems sorely lacking these days.
