Although I am a conservative, practicing Catholic, I will make sure never to intrude on this Caucus again. Not my style, not my understanding of the "Universal Church".

Can you tell us about yourself? We need conservative, orthodox Catholics who believe in the Church that Jesus Christ Created and the Holy Spirit Commissioned at Pentecost to participate fully and eagerly in every aspect of life, including here at FR on the RF.

It is refreshing to see that so many bishops have implemented thorough preparation and solid catechesis to prepare the laity for this wonderfully improved translation.

Amen, brother. I have gone up publicly against our bishop and upbraided him in front of the cameras for his view on various things, but I must say that the diocese is preparing very indepth for this change.

Do you mean “consubstantial”?

It’s as much an English word as it is Latin, not unfamiliar to serious Catholics either.

“Can the REAL Catholics here on FR shout “Amen!””

Amen! I’m chomping at the bit. To be completely truthful, I would, given my druthers, prefer my OF with the priest ad orientem, with Gregorian Chant, more solemn vestments and the OF in Latin, if possible. I love the Traditional Latin Mass, but cannot often be where I wish. At the least, the new translation is more reverent, more appropriate, and closer by far, to the same in Latin.

A pair of ICC lectures for folks interested in this:

Actually one does not need to be a Catholic to baptize someone, provided the form and matter are correct.

V. Who can Baptize?

1256 The ordinary ministers of Baptism are the bishop and priest and, in the Latin Church, also the deacon.57 In case of necessity, any person, even someone not baptized, can baptize, if he has the required intention. the intention required is to will to do what the Church does when she baptizes, and to apply the Trinitarian baptismal formula. the Church finds the reason for this possibility in the universal saving will of God and the necessity of Baptism for salvation.58

>>Please remove me from membership in your caucus.<<

The Caucus label goes on a thread. There is no membership.

From the Caucus Administrator:

Your post was restored per Freepmail indicating that you are a member of the caucus after all.

Regardless, have no concern that I will ever intrude on what has been self titled as the "Catholic Caucus" again. I made the mistake that I thought it was about religion.

I can say “AMEN”! I’ve noticed that the folks complaining the loudest were the ones who wanted the changes 30 years ago, claiming that making them would make people like Mass, and want to come more often. That didn’t happen, so they don’t like that their changes are being changed.

The lecture I went to today was fabulous. Father Jeremy Driscoll gave it.

Yes, he’s written books.

Didn’t you see that it was about the new Mass translations?

If that’s not Catholic, I don’t know what is.

You are always welcome. It was my mistake and I publicly apologize for not recognizing you.

BTW, you didn’t answer my FReepmail.

Ask for them or bring your own. One of our parishioners made some for our Adoration Chapel that were just a 2x4 with a heaped up lot of padding on it, and then, of course, upholstered.

“YOU can baptize your baby yourself....and you SHOULD... ANY Catholic can baptize someone.”

JFI, I’m the grampaw, not the father.

I thought laymen could only baptise in emergencies. Wrong?

“they sometimes “take the scenic route”

Funny, I haven’t seen you there. Or maybe I have, and just forgot.

“What, though, constitutes necessity, and what about the “certificate of baptism” that will be requested when it is time for first communion and confirmation?

The Religion mod does not run a Caucus.

>>I made the mistake that I thought it was about religion.<<

What is this thread about?
