Why Catholics Love Doctor Who

I don't know why, but when I read this, I completely fell in love with it. I have to say that I loved Doctor Who since before I was a Catholic, but I fell in with Catholicism for many of the reasons listed here as why Catholics love Doctor Who.

I just thought this was super cute and had to share it myself. I found it at Molly Makes Do.

7 QTs - Why Catholics Love Doctor Who

Okay, to start off with - everyone should love Doctor Who, just plan and simple. However, I've been noticing a trend on Pinterest of some of my favorite friends and bloggers pinning things in tandem to boards about religion and the Doctor and it made me wonder if there's a correlation. Most of these women have admitted that they don't like alien movies or sci-fi TV shows, yet love this regenerating, time traveling heroic anti-hero. In a moment of over analysis this is what I came up with.

So today for the Quick Takes I bring you the 7 (okay 8) reasons I think Catholics love Doctor Who

1. We love anything that operates outside of time and space.

2. We love ridiculous ceremonial clothing

3. We love social justice.

4. We love penance and forgiveness.

5. We love a good apostolic tradition

and don't forget those Holy Orders

6. We love Really Important Women

7. We love Miracles

8. We love Ancient, Dead Languages

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for. I have pretty much everything a girl could want. I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now. I'm beyond obsessed. Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations. I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies. I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley! I'm so in love with Vera Bradley. I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house. I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

This year, I'm participating in Sandra's, at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom, Blogmas 2014. If you want to join in, you can go over to her post, by clicking here , and see what it's all about. When I was a kid, growing up, we never had fake trees. I loved everything about them. The smell, the way they looked, and even more so, the going out as a family in the cold. It was always a hunt whether at a tree far or a parking lot full of precut trees. When I was younger it was the parking lot. There was a place about a mile from our house that we would drive to. We'd walk through tons of trees leaning against walls and fences. My dad would hold each one up, shaking them a little bit and asking what we thought. We all got to be involved in finding the perfect tree. As we got older, we started going to tree farms instead of the parking lot. We'd get a sled and a saw and walk between aisles and aisles in fields, full of gorgeou...
