Good thing biblical Christianity doesn’t have anything to “do”. Too bad about Catholicism...no hope since it must be “done”.
All those imperative verbs in the NT are now inoperative? Preach, teach, baptize?
Somewhere in your snarky comment, there may have been a modicum of true concern for your fellow believers in Christ who are separated by circumstances from their Church.
It is an appropriate concern for all Christians especially during this period of penitence called Lent. Thanks for asking.
Yes, Catholics have to “do” things. Why? Because we believe in Holy Scripture, like,
“For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Matthew 18:20
and
“And taking bread, he gave thanks, and broke; and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you. Do this for a commemoration of me.” Luke 22:19
Catholics in Space will practice their religion the same way that soldiers in combat or sailors at sea have always done: they will read scripture, pray, and attend Mass and receive the sacraments when available.
In fact, nowadays, they can hear Mass over the radio or as a podcast.
I can even envision the Eucharist being sent to an astronaut when the space station is re-supplied, much the way it is brought to a bed-ridden parishioner confined at home because of illness.
Yes, Catholicism requires that we “do” things. And every time we “do” something, it is an act of will to honor God.
And it’s worth it.
Problem solved.
I guess your bible doesn't have the part where Jesus says "Do this in memory of me.".
Well that would means as a protestant you don’t need to do anything, which is about the mist unscriptural thing I’ve ever heard a Protestant utter.
