Found this on Thoughts & Ruminations, a microblog by Father Ryan Humphries of Catholic Underground fame.

This information is for Catholics only. It must not be divulged to non-Catholics. The less they know, the more fun this list is!

  1. AMEN: The only part of a prayer that everyone knows.
  2. BULLETIN: Your receipt for attending Mass.
  3. CHOIR: A group of people whose singing allows the rest of the Parish to lip-sync.
  4. HYMN: A song of praise usually sung in a key three octaves higher than that of the congregation’s range.
  5. RECESSIONAL HYMN: The last song at Mass often sung a little more quietly, since most of the people have already left.
  6. JESUITS: An order of priests known for their ability to found colleges with good basketball teams.
