Bend over and take it in the ass now?

[The Louiswu]

I stopped listening to this pop a long time ago.

Imagine this: Someone celebrating the traditional Latin Rite, kneeling to accept communion on the tongue from a priest, and holding to traditional views on life and marriage is now called a...

Protestant.

And we wonder why there are less and less people showing up to Catholic Mass. The church is half full on Sunday.

Maybe this is all part of the plan to turn people away from God and the church of St Peter.

[nwrep]

Haha. Luther says “Mission Accomplished”. WHat?

[Mathews]

Being Catholic must be very confusing. Lots of rules kinda like the Sanhedrin of old...

Imagine Catholics not knowing for centuries that the "traditional Latin mass" was defined at the Council of Trent in the mid 16th century as a response to the Protestant Reformation. Mass done before that had many local variations (pre-Tridentine mass).

As soon as a coin in the coffer rings the soul from purgatory springs.

[BipolarBob]

Or the Pharisees.

[ebb tide]

I guess the Ten Commandments are ten too many for you. Right?

[T.B. Yoits]

The Lord Himself, when he shared the Last Supper with His Apostles was celebrating Passover as Jews would. There is no description of their celebration of Passover being changed so that the Apostles would kneel in order to receive Communion on the tongue.

When the Lord said, "Do this in memory of me.", he didn't say "and add kneeling and receiving on the tongue."

[Bloodandgravy]

The Jesuit takeover is almost complete.

[ebb tide]

Yeah, right. As if you there to witness the Last Supper.

P.S. They were all priests who were present.

[MeganC]

I am not a Catholic but one of the more moving and beautiful experiences I ever had was hearing a Latin service for a Christmas Eve one year. I love the small church experience I have on Sundays but there is an undeniable spiritual awesomeness in hearing the priest singing, the choir singing, and hearing the organ echoing in a beautiful stone cathedral.

To take that away from the Catholics who connect to God through it is to me a kind of violation.

[Chode]

just die already... there i said it again

[Trump_Triumphant]

Kiss my pre-concilior ass, Dope Francis.

Imagine Catholics not knowing for centuries that the "traditional Latin mass" was defined at the Council of Trent in the mid 16th century as a response to the Protestant Reformation.

All Trent did was codify and standardize the practice which had existed, almost unchanged, at Rome since the 5th century.

Mass done before that had many local variations (pre-Tridentine mass).

True, not all of which were abrogated by Trent. But if you compare, e.g., the Sarum Rite with the Tridentine, you'll find that they are very similar, with a few extra prayers, extra rituals, and extra rubrics in the Sarum rite.
