Anyone know when making the Sign of the Cross became standard Christian ritual ?
(( If there's anyone who doesn't know, the Sign of the Cross is accomplished as the fingertips of one (usually right) hand,
touch (1) forehead [mind],
touch (2) chest [heart/body],
touch (3) left shoulder,
touch (4) right shoulder [soul/spirit],
and sometimes touch (5) lips.
"In the name of the (1) Father, and the (2) Son, and the (3) Holy (4) Spirit, (5) Amen." ))
