Yeah--disobedience, like certain other vices, gets to be habitual, doesn't it?

Rome has the authority and, for that matter, good REASON to make the practices in question go away. The Bishops only need to heed authority--although, with a little work, I am sure they can ALSO find the reasoning behind the moves, when they happen.

And I am absolutely sure that your obedience to Rome will prevail, too.

If these retrogressions are imposed, I'm sure Rome will be able to advance arguments that will be accepted by clergy and laity alike. Right? Just like the overwhelming acceptance of Humanae Vitae?,

And I am absolutely sure that your obedience to Rome will prevail, too.

I can explain away altar girls, but not resricting communion in the hand nor communion under both kinds.

What's more, I won't even try.
