No more whim of the local parish priest or bishop forcing the "pastoral solution" on to all parishioners. <br /><br /> ... Legislation on the cessation of liturgical dance, legislation of no more "Children's liturgy of the word", really clear documentation/legislation on marriage in the Catholic Church, really clear and recommended books for use for First Holy Communion/Confession. <br /><br />...Can't wait for the new Congregation...Damask Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12903564104733536123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-2873811682483566292013-10-29T11:04:23.517-07:002013-10-29T11:04:23.517-07:00Ven.

Then we Traditional Catholics would storm it with our demands that they take the Church's official condemnation of the heresy of modernism seriously. We could point out their modernist heresies and get our Church back. We Traditionalist are known to demand God's greater glory and honor and not our own.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06410203822867127964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-14224398791719641812013-10-29T10:19:47.515-07:002013-10-29T10:19:47.515-07:00This married man and the colleagues he's train...This married man and the colleagues he's trained will happily relinquish serving at Mass and depart the sanctuary as soon as clergy and seminarians, properly trained and reliably available, begin appear in numbers adequate to to enable worthy celebration of the liturgy. Till then, Catholics who wish to see ceremonial well supplied and supported will do well not to scorn the sacrifices of lay men -- even the defiled married ones -- who deny themselves much so that God may be glorified and souls drawn to Him. <br /><br />No more of this, please.<br /><br />RomulusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-13749691783655928872013-10-29T07:58:38.822-07:002013-10-29T07:58:38.822-07:00Well said, Johannes.Well said, Johannes.Aged parenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05217229048176272954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-37548900385709516322013-10-29T06:09:54.828-07:002013-10-29T06:09:54.828-07:00Oh dear.

I mean to say why was it established if not to teach the Gospel to all men and provide the sacraments necessary for eternal life. The only thing we need is for our priests to be good priests, our bishops to be good bishops and our Pope to be a good Pope. We do not need a false congregation to pretend it represents us. What happens in the end is these middlemen usually only represent themselves usually to the detriment of those they are supposed to support.Ma Tuckernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-48213739398583019192013-10-28T23:44:41.173-07:002013-10-28T23:44:41.173-07:00So by reform of the Curia, we mean another superfl...So by reform of the Curia, we mean another superfluous expansion of the administrative apparatus?
