. People who get so hung up on "titles" really turn me off. And frankly, I think, as a Catholic, some of these Eucharist Ministers take away the holiness of the Eucharist. I see young girls in very short skirts giving communion, guys in jeans giving away the Eucharist and it really takes the sacredness away. Just my opinion.

Not just your opinion, it's the opinion of many. I was brought up with the Latin Mass and have seen many changes, many of which have saddened me and it's about time that things return to the oneness of the church. We shouldn't have to look week after week for a church that has a Mass that we want, they should all be the same...Hopefully this will start us on the right road...I recently attended what I think was a Mass in a church without a crucifix to be seen in the church, nothing on the alter....

As always thanks for the ping. These thing just amaze me everytime I read them. I should be used to it but I am not.
