Um…Your Emotions are Showing

The chief difference between Protestants and Catholics is this:

Protestants wear their religious emotions like women wear scarves: right up front. They show them prominently, they talk about them, they inquire politely about those of their friends. Catholics think of our emotions more like our undergarments. We do have them, in fact we value them quite highly, but we’d be mortified to find them sticking out, and we’d rather chew rocks than discuss them in public.
