Botox: Strictly speaking, a Catholic follows the faith of the Catholic Church which traces its teachings and authority back to St.Peter and the Apostles chosen by Jesus. en.wikipedia.org
P.S. I respect all Faiths and I chose to become a Catholic after struggling with faith issues during my entire youth.
I am perturbed when a Catholic University compromises its faith (as in Pro-Life issues) for political exposure as is Notre Dame. Over 52 U.S. Bishops have admonished Notre Dame for inviting Obama to the commencement.

P.S. Road signs like this are in place for Obama's visit to Notre Dame:



My hope is that the general populace will continue to confront our politicians in the future with similar
'in your face' signs and demonstrations in order to hold them accountable for their actions.

For that matter, what is a democrat, or a republican, or a liberterian, or a socialist, or a communist or a facist. I suspect that if you asked that question you would get many different answers.
