Your Fr. McLucas sounds very insecure. He just can't stand women or laymen being anywhere in the sanctuary.

McLucas is a brilliant man; he was praised by Cardinal O' Connor of New York, has been on Mother Angelica's show,helped guide many young men into the priesthood(I know four who are priests or seminarians today because of him) and has done a helluva lot more good than the namby pamby churchmen who you seem to love so much.

That's not life in the Catholic Church in 2003. He, and you, are going to have to adjust to laymen participating in the liturgy. Or, you can go off to the Indult.

I go to the Indult. And the Tridentine Mass is indeed life. It always will be. As Cardinal Newman said, "It's the most beautiful thing this side of heaven". It is the glory of the Church and nourished countless generations of Catholics and produced innumerable saints. As for the Novus Ordo, as a good friend once said," It's only fruits are fruits".

Ha ha! I love it! And you were very possibly talking to a fruit of that Nervous Disorder Mess. Good job, my friend.
