Were they at the Last Supper?

Were they at the Transfiguration?

Were they on the boat when Christ walked on water?

“I see no religious reason that a girl can not be a server at Mass.”

There are religious reasons that a girl may not be a priest. Overwhelming reasons.

Altar boys are the most significant source of priests.

Anything that places a stumbling block in the path of a boy, interfering with his development into a strong, holy priest, is a very, very bad thing indeed.

Altar girls drive altar boys away in droves, just as the heresy of VatII drives the faithful out of the pews. In fact, that is the very reason that the heretic VatII Church is so insistent on forcing altar girls on us.

Amen. And the same for every other ministry or office in a parish.

I first joined FR in the spring of 2000 .... (I lost my password after changing email addresses in a computer disaster awhile back, so returned under a new moniker.)

Same, in late 2000 or early 2001. Glad to hear I'm not the only one!

Yes, it is nice to have company! I get accused of being a “newbie troll” by some people here now, but ... that’s the interests for ya. I do miss the old days on FR. It has changed so much.

If you were an altar boy how do you not know how it is spelled. I’m not buying it. That’s all.

But did I spell 'obnoxious prick' correctly?

Maybe I just wasn't paying attention when I typed 'alter' instead of 'altar' and since word check didn't flag it I missed it.

BTW, I was an alter errr, altar boy over 70 years ago, but I still see an altar every week and I misspelled it.

You buying that?

The Priest I had lunch with today didn't know it was still a mortal sin.

Seriously? Wow, that's just really sad.

You know what's sad?

FReepers that can't {or won't} recognize sarcasm when they read it.

If you followed this thread, you'd know that I've been involved in a senseless pissing contest with some idiot named stanne, that has been sitting in a corner, using number 10 sand paper on his organ and wondering why he is crying.

Now you?

Are you really serious or just like stanne, another idiot.

I've called him a prick, but before I call you any serious names, I'll wait.

You’re just wasting people’s time, then. Got it.
