songs of praise, prayer, scripture reading- it all PALES IN COMPARISON.
Because the Mass is something Christ is doing, not me.
You did not answer my question! What was your understanding of the Mass?
You and Mrs. Don-o are indicating (to me) that you have considerable forbearance with RnM’s interrogation-style questioning——a style which seems more like a methodology than a message to me.
Getting relentlessly pursued with questions, which give me the impression that they demand immediate and “acceptable” answers, is easily a big turn-off for me, and I wouldn’t be surprised if I weren’t the only one.
I agree with a comment by johngrace—post # 121-—to RnM: “I believe you are too legalistic....”
So, Mrs. D. and s_m_v, keep up your kind forbearance and question-answering.
