Inside the pews are roped off to maintain distancing. When taking communion, you must wear the mask up the aisle, briefly demask, then remask, immediately. Gag. The whole family has stopped attending Mass in the church.

I had expected some priests to stand up to this madness. No. Cowed completely.


It's awful! They count the number of attendees but the restrictions are keeping Masses empty. It's impossible to sing when you are wearing a mask so I just yank my down. Going up to Communion people stop at the altar and put on hand sanitizer. And the homily always has something to do with the VIRUS. You have to put your paper program in the recycle bin upon exiting--germs, you know. And no gathering to socialize after Mass has ended...just file out the side doors.

Sorry to be this blunt but if y'all had four legs instead of two you've just described running the herd through the cutting chutes before shipping.

Complete with the Priest doin' the hazing....
