Warden Callaway Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 1 hour ago, Alpo said: I've not seen the ash on forehead in public for years.  Had a manager that did some ministry work at the prison and was a devout catholic. He had the ash on the forehead at the office. One of the not so bright guys pointed it out like something unintentional.  2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 3 hours ago, Warden Callaway said: not so bright I don't see why he would be "not so bright". Kind of like pointing out to a Jew that he's still got his hat on in church. Wouldn't be not bright. Just not know that Jews wear their hats in church. Â I'm 68. And I consider myself fairly bright. I have heard the term Ash Wednesday. Until a couple years ago I had no idea what it meant. It has something to do with Catholics and Lent, and since I wasn't Catholic and didn't do Lent it didn't really matter. So if I saw someone with a spot of ash on his forehead, I might point it out - hey Joe, your forehead is dirty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
