Whoo! The annual /u/fr-josh AMA! I was wondering when this would happen.

• If you had to choose a favorite solemnity, which one would it be and why?
• What's the day-to-day life of a diocean priest like in the Roman Catholic Church? How far from your parish do you live? What do you do when you're not serving the mass?
• Eucharistic adoration: what is it, what liturgy does it follow if any, and how often does your parish schedule it? (I'm Orthodox, so it's one of those things we don't really do. We will stick to the Horologion and perhaps a few Akathists if we're really feeling ambitions.
• What kind of daily prayer routine do you recommend for lay Catholics? Obviously the rosary is in there, but what of morning/evening prayers?
• Tell us the life of your favorite saint.

And, BTW, it's not wine at Mass. What's in the chalice after Consecration is Jesus.

I dunno, man, in the Orthodox Church, we usually wash our Jesus down with a bit of wine.

This is not the greatest AMA in the world. This is just a tribute.

Personally, I would focus a lot of attention on Catholic high schools and colleges and catechesis worldwide.

What do you think is broken about the Catholic education system, and what would you do to fix it?

I love how people downvote you for posting the answer to the question asked, even if they don't like it.
