[quote=Anonymous]I’m still confused as to what a “cradle Catholic” is Does it mean one is somehow more Catholic than a child who gets baptized and takes communion at, say, 7 years old? Does it mean you had a crucifix over your crib and that your mobile was a bunch of holy cards and rosaries? Would the seven years between birth and 1st communion mean you get some kind of Catholic extra credit or something? You’re barely a sentient human yet much less immersed in any doctrine you can understand. Does the Catholic Church even distinguish between someone born into a Catholic family vs. a converted family? Does it mean Boston College and Holy Cross give your application extra weight if you declare yourself a “cradle Catholic?” What an odd phrase altogether[/quote]
