Weird, highly inappropriate, and it should be stopped immediately. Who is the bishop for these folks?
Also, what’s with the outstretched arm? The Little Chapel of Der Fürher?
As has been said a number of times before, it is up to the Bishop to clamp down on these violations of Church Doctrine. Until ALL the Bishops do this, this problem will continue. In this case, it looks like the Bishop himself is present in some of these photos, and is therefore complicit. In that case, it is up to Rome to clamp down. Until Rome does this, these problems are going to continue. It is frustrating in that it seems like nothing is being done about this.
About all we can do is continue to complain, and pray for all those involved.
This looks like the priestess is concelebrating. Dishonest and bad.
I wish I could say you're wrong.
