This is just despicable.<br /><br />I have likewise provided a rant through my blog here (<a href="http://www.blueskypoetry.com/despicable/" rel="nofollow">http://www.blueskypoetry.com/despicable/</a>) despite the fact that such an online journal of mine is not dedicated to religious matters.

In all the posts I've read so far, you never outright denounce the Ordinary Form, just the mistakes and abuses that happen during it. I'm sure if there was an abuse that occurred during the Extraordinary Form, you would be just as vigilant at pointing it out. <br /><br />Also, I've never seen either of those two words spelled out before, just spoken...and they look just as nasty and vile as they sound. It kinda saddens me that civil and spiritual Christians would resort to such rudeness.<br /><br />I understand why some may be so ready to take up arms in defense of their favorite deacon, priest, or bishop. And while that is admirable, who should we really be taking up arms for? For a man, or for the Savior of the world, whose sacrifice is re-presented to us during every Mass? As humans, we make mistakes, even priests and bishops. But they should be lovingly be made aware of those mistakes, especially the clergy, who act in persona Christi, so as not to disconnect orthodoxy from orthopraxy.<br /><br />I think what everyone should realize is that the reason you are so vocal is because of your love for Christ. Even the SSPX, who of course went about it in the wrong way, simply wanted to show their love and devotion to the Holy Sacrament, but again, they did so in a way that directly contradicted Holy Mother Church and the faith. <br /><br />All of us want to be faithful, all of us simply want to celebrate and give thanks (eucharistia) in the way we think best. For some, that's the OF. For others, it's the EF. But no matter which one, it must be done so with love. Everything we do and say as Catholics, even our criticisms of others, must be done with love. <br /><br />Thanks for letting me rant again. Keep up the good work sir. <br /><br />Peace and blessings.Lorenzo de Ruizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11583427967972296937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918598045168602139.post-77694665854664186412012-04-28T10:41:47.978+08:002012-04-28T10:41:47.978+08:00Well put Bro Lorenzo!
That is why it is saddening...Well put Bro Lorenzo!<br /><br />That is why it is saddening to note that there are those supposed laity who are all for the noble celebration of the Mass and the Church's Liturgy who raise up in arms when they see other priests committing liturgical abuses but when it's time for their favorite priest or bishop's turn to be subjected to scrutiny, they vent anger on you and accuse you of well,<br /><br /><br />SECRET SSPX, DEMONYO, TARANTADO.<br /><br />Sorry if I have to type those words in. It came from my GREATEST FAN. :)<br /><br />I know he already knows about me taking a jibe at him all the time. His die hard fans from the South have been sending him these updates even if he is not on exile in the land of cotton. :)AAAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15156566877512852332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918598045168602139.post-45978274081791209102012-04-28T10:37:03.910+08:002012-04-28T10:37:03.910+08:00No, I meant proper catechism of the laity. If the ...No, I meant proper catechism of the laity. If the lay faithful knew why certain things were not acceptable or proper, then they would not engage in it. As much as it is the duty for the clergy to safeguard the sacraments, it is also the duty of the laity, as intended by Vatican II I believe, to be more active and participatory in the celebration. It is the greatest responsibility of every Catholic, not just bishops and priests, to make sure the greatest respect is given to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. I think that for the longest time there was a misconception that the laity were not as aware or cognizant of the "rules" of the church, so perhaps clergymen became lax. If the lay faithful were properly catechized, especially in regards to the sacraments, then many of our problems would cease to exist. Furthermore, since all clergy and religious start off as lay faithful, addressing the catechism of the laity therefore addresses the catechism of the clergy. <br /><br />Granted, this is all just my opinion, but nevertheless. <br /><br />And yes, I have seen priests vest properly for the Mass during wartime. I have also seen priests NOT properly vested during wartime, e.g. a vested deacon carrying a gun during Holy Communion.Lorenzo de Ruizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11583427967972296937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918598045168602139.post-88249433887632165212012-04-27T19:46:55.523+08:002012-04-27T19:46:55.523+08:00I think right term is proper catechism of the cler...I think right term is proper catechism of the clergy!

This is really disconcerting. Now I know that...Wow. This is really disconcerting. Now I know that Mass can be celebrated outside a church if given the proper dispensation by the local Ordinary right? Such as the Archdiocese for Military Services here in the U.S., where Catholic priests don't always have a church to celebrate in when abroad. Is that what's happening here? Did their Bishops give the go-ahead to celebrate Mass in the open? Because I find it hard to believe that their Bishop have no knowledge of this. Then again, if the Bishop does know and is letting it happen anyways, then that is more disconcerting. But even so, what about their vestments? Even military chaplains vest appropriately when celebrating Mass. I really don't know what shocks me more: how the people are ok with this or how the Bishops are letting it continue?<br /><br />(Of course, I think the first question addresses a completely different issue for completely different time: proper catechism of the laity)<br /><br />Thanks for letting me rant again.Lorenzo de Ruizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11583427967972296937noreply@blogger.com
