As I read the lives of the Saints from different centuries, it reminds me from the Ist century to the latest most Saints were from the European Countries. It seems Vatican in Rome is only a walking distance for the early Europeans. Catholic Religion had its first world wide recognition starting from the European Countries. It is sad that what has been said that there is great apostacy now going on in the European countries. It seems religion specially Christianity is practice by very few. In the Philippines Christianity is still a very important activity in the daily life of the Filipino. I hope someday to visit Europe. The European seems to be united - with its Euro money. The Asian is following its step - hopefully someday we will have Asian Money as a common means of Exchange.

When euro was introduced i got alarmed. But. on second thought, it has ease many ways of exchanges, trades within europe, as European countries have a high standard of living and are economically more developed than Asian countries. But, when it comes to Asia, i feel that if the idea of common means of Exchange is actually being implemented, it may prove chaotic. Asia cultures are too pervasive and many countries within have to still uplift themselves in terms of economy, polity etc.
