Catholic priests have ZERO leeway in adding or subtracting from the liturgy.

Daily Mass is no different from Sunday mass in that tha priest cannot change add or subtract one word from what is printed for the liturgy of that day.

At the very most the priest has a couple of choices of different passages to read which would not amount to 100 words if that.

Silly protestants you don’t even know that every word of a Catholic mass is printed in the daily/Sunday missal.

If you wanted to know exactly what your up against just look it up in the missal.

The funny thing is even the fallen away Catholics didn’t bring that up lots of help and insight they are.

Sounds a bit repetitious.

Which was my point behind comparing a standardized liturgy of one church.

Silly protestants you don’t even know that every word of a Catholic mass is printed in the daily/Sunday missal.

Some silly RCs don’t even know that some of us, as myself, were altar boys and lectors, and thus know about the standardized liturgy. Why are you protesting to me? I simply affirmed the mass was standardized.

At the very most the priest has a couple of choices of different passages to read which would not amount to 100 words if that.

But he could quote lots of texts in his short sermon, esp. if he knew it was part of a contest that would make Rome look good.

Yet I provided the reading for a Sunday Mass - not you. Do you read what i write or just engage in shotgun protests?
