[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes! I married an hispanic immigrant. My uncle started ranting about immigrants to my husband at my cousin’s wedding. I was horrified.

Another thing I find absolutely mind boggling is [b]the Chevy Chase Catholics who love to try to imitate WASP culture[/b]. Like Catholics were as bad as minorities and immigrants to old WASP families. They weren’t allowed in country clubs or in the social register! It’s bizarre.[/quote]

I'm not a Chevy Chase Catholic.

I'm a 5th generation member of a Catholic parish in a midwestern city. We feel a sense of obligation to continue to support the parish. There's some exclusivity, I suppose. It's not really by choice, but more out of a sense of duty and tradition. Inside the church building, there lies the history of my family. There's a memorial with engraved names of fallen American service members from the parish. Statues, paintings, sculptures, etc. donated and with a history.

We are an old Catholic family. LoL. We don't need to act like an old WASP family.

I'm also somewhat relieved to have family ties in Europe, just in case.
