I exchanged several text messages with a good friend of mine yesterday. We're both huge baseball fans and both Catholic, so I knew he would get the joke. But I believe most anyone will appreciate the following quip as well.
At one point Nick texted that it seemed most people's baseball memories begin at about 8 years old. I agreed, citing theology.
You see, the Catholic Church teaches that the age of reason is 7. Typically it's at seven years old we are able to differentiate the good from the bad, the right from the wrong, the well from the ill. So I responded it makes perfect sense that we would learn to love baseball by 8.
Get it?
