Well, how long does it take before Helen has to run to the door? I would have been out of there with the "nude" Jesus.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

Good question. I wondered the same thing.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

Does Bishop Vigneron get the San Francisco Faith delivered to his door?

I hope he sees this article.

There are many different ways to be involved in the community life of St. Anne's Parish. If you or a member of your family is interested in any of the above ministries please contact the church office.


Altar Servers
Help provide for the hospitality of the Sunday assembly by helping the presider, leading processions, setting the Holy Table, modeling the kind of service Jesus showed us at the last supper when he washed the disciples' feet. (from 1st Communion through adulthood.) We need those who would also help in forming and training servers.

Greeters
Welcome as Christ the members of the assembly, take up the collection and coordinate the procession of the gifts.

Eucharistic Ministers
Help with the hospitality of the Holy Table by distributing the Eucharist so that we can become that which nourishes us the body and blood of Christ.

Lectors
Proclaim the Scripture Readings so that the assembly might hear the living word of God.

I like the use of the word hospitality. Must be a hotel or country club.

Well Irish, of course we all know that this is merely the misapplication or misinterpretation of Vatican II - before which nothing ever existed - EXCEPT TRUTH - and if only "John Paul the Great" knew what was going on, or wasn't being held prisoner, or wasn't too busy kissing the Koran or excommunicating true (i.e. traditional) Catholics, all this would have beeen taken care of by the "Vatican" - or *would* have been if it wasn't for "schismatics" like you!

The truth of course is that it has gone to the dogs and is being run by monkeys:

It is quite clear that this parish holds a Protestant eucharistic theology. The language simply is not capable of a Catholic interpretation.

This is as explicit a rejection of the Church's sacramental doctrines as can be made.

Do my eyes deceive me or is that scenario on its way to becoming X-rated?

[Viva Christo Rey]

On the contrary, it is most likely the most innocent thing present today in what has tragically become a satanic pit.

As Pope Paul IV so aptly quoted the Prophet Daniel:

The Abomination of the Desolation in the Holy Place.

I recognize each of them! From left to right: Weakland, Mahoney, Pilla, and (bringing up the rear, as always) Hubbard.

[ultima ratio]

Here is what the Pope said about Archbishop Lefebvre and the bishops he consecrated, in his Ecclesia Dei letter: "The root of this schismatic act can be discerned in an incomplete and contradictory notion of Tradition. Incomplete, because it does not take sufficiently into account the living character of Tradition, which, as the Second Vatican Council clearly taught, 'comes from the apostles and progresses in the Church with the help of the Holy Spirit.'"

Of course the letter is NOT infallible. It is, in fact, wrong as well as reckless, condemning true Tradition while praising something called "living Tradition"--which he allows to be radical. What the Pope praises as living Tradition is in reality a revolution--a destruction of Tradition, stuff like this Fr. Ron's bizarre approach--which the Holy See seems to think is blessed by the Holy Spirit.

But Vatican I made it very clear: "For the Holy Spirit was not given to the Successors of Peter that by His revelation they might disclose new doctrine, but that by His help they might guard the revelation transmitted by the apostles and the deposit of faith." In other words, the Pontiff has no divine protection when he proclaims the new, but ONLY when he PROTECTS what has been handed-down already. This is what this Pontiff doesn't do.

[Grey Ghost II]

a naked crucifix would be vastly preferable as the norm, for many sound theological reasons.

Do you care to elaborate why a naked crucifix would be preferable?

A good eye!

Any idea who these clowns are?

Do you care to elaborate why a naked crucifix would be preferable?

Maybe because, the majority of Amchurch bishops and priests would find it "enjoyable".

[Land of the Irish]

Do you have one of these hanging in St. Patrick's Church? I've never seen one in there. If not, why don't you broach the subject with your pastor?

[Land of the Irish]

Any idea who these clowns are?

Yes, from left to right, McCarrick and O'Malley.

These "Irish" prelates really make me proud of my ancestry.

[Romulus]

Are you aware that the crucifix in my post that you deleted in your ignorance was carved by Michelangelo? Are we to be not allowed to post images of the noblest works of religious art in the Western tradition? What on earth are you thinking? I'm disgusted to see prudery of this sort -- grounded in a gross misunderstanding of human sexuality -- prevailing in a forum supposedly dedicated to serious religious discussion. Explain yourself and your phobic response to a reverent presentation of scriptural truth.

Pathetic.

[Romulus]

We can't afford original Michelangelos.

I regret if you find it offensive -- mostly because it implies something disordered in your ability to receive scripture and authentic theology.

I am sorry to be angry with you, but such a grave lack of discernment in one supposedly devoted to Tradition disappoints me to the bottom of my soul.
