Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Not to hijack the thread on what's IN the cup, this is what's ON a cup:

http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=41470

This was posted on a friend's facebook page. People all were so mad about it. Really? About a cup? Here was my comment that was pretty much shouted down.

"You could look at them as truly rhetorical questions and use it as an exercise to further strengthen your own Faith. Can we answer those questions? Those are difficult questions, and the cup doesn't say it's dumb to look to God for streng...th it just asks why we do. As people of Faith we can answer those questions pretty well...because man is weak, his cognition and reason are what gets him into trouble, blah,blah,blah. The cup doesn't judge, the reader interprets it as a judgement. Maybe the offense taken relates to the spiritual disposition of the reader.

Then again, I just want a cup of coffee!"

I just wonder why coffee cups need to have dialogue on them. Yuck
