I was struck by this one, from the "Jesus Junk" post:

When I was a protestant christian, all I needed to do to evanglelize was to encourage someone to pray the ‘save me’ prayer and Wham! they were saved. I guess a keychain or breath mint might lead to that. As a Catholic I am asking people to follow the way of the cross with a lot of bad catholics ( inc. me). We go together in a kind of salvation ark. It is a harder and more serious task. I do have a lot of icons in my home and I get plenty of questions about rosary beads and scapulars. At least they are part of my life and not put there as conversation starters.

I think I could ponder that all day. Perhaps I will…
