teach, it’s many, but far from “just about all”. Many Protestant denominations didn’t start receiving ashes until recently and a lot still opt not to get them as they see it as a Catholic ritual.

I saw many people here with them, large public U. No one really commented, but I did hear a few "Oh crap, I forgot!"s. My boyfriend’s mom called to give him an earful because he didn’t go to mass to get them. It was funny. When I was younger and used to come home from Catholic school with stuff on my head, my mother was always so confused by how I managed to get dirt on that one area of my forehead.
