Since I was the only poster to use the word in this thread in reference to the catechumen's choice of confirmation names, I'll assume you were talking about my post #17:
Any parishioners who are protesting this, especially to the point of pressuring catechumens to pervert their sacrament of confirmation, are the real liberals.
I'll also assume that you didn't read it very well since I was clearly referring to the perversion of using the choice of confirmation names to protest a bishop. Regardless of your husband's affinity for cute initials, confirmation names should be chosen for an affinity to a particular saint and the sacraments should not be abused for intra-church political protest, as they were in this instance. These children were tragically misled.
To the contrary. It is you who seems to have not read the thread carefully. According to the member of the parish reporting this incident, (Slyfox) they were not misled at all. They did this on their own, and it was a surprise to the parents and to the leaders that prepared them for Confirmation, as well as to the priest. Slyfox has repeated this information a half a dozen times. It is you who are refusing to understand his meaning.
As for my husband, I was making fun of his reason for choosing the name, Carl. (He was 12 years old at the time.) Acquiring the initials ABCD seemed like a trivial reason for choosing a particular Saint's name. I guess I should have put large SARCASM tags on the end of that sentence. I thought my meaning was obvious, but apparently I was mistaken.
As for myself, since I was confirmed as an adult I didn't even get to choose a new name so I spent no time thinking about it. I just had to make do with one I already had. (That was the rule at the time for adult Confirmations in the Diocese where I was living.)
You are belittling the sacrifice these young people have made. They could have chosen any Saint's name, but they chose to honor their Pastor by honoring his Saint. I imagine that they put more thought into this choice than most young people do when they choose their Confirmation name. At least they didn't call themselves "Ronaldus"!
You took me to task using this quote. I did not write this. You, sir, should read more carefully before you attack other posters.
