Poll-Release Monday Archive

Here you'll find all of the issues of "Poll-Release Monday" that have appeared on this blog. You can still vote in all of them, except for the ones I have closed (because they are no longer relevant). Just click on the poll you want to vote in and a new window will open where you can vote. Polls are listed in order from newest to oldest.

If a poll is a question with a right or wrong answer, then it probably came from the quiz on the Catechism from the USCCB. Go there to find the answer.

Pax Christi,
