“People” =/= “High Priest of Jesus Christ and successor to the Apostles”.

Where is the fear of God?
:confused: But they aren’t God. If Jesus walked through my door right now. Well, in all honesty I would probably stand there frozen. If my bishop walked through the door I would shake his hand.

If St. Andrew walked through your door, would you just shake his hand?

Ugly Americans ftw.

I’m actually quite pretty, thank you very much. You calling me names isn’t going to help anything.

I am referring to the tendency of Americans to reject legitimate hierarchy in the name of radical equality, because we think of the Church the same way we think of our government. Bishops ARE special; they are not just regular guys, and the virtue of religion requires that clergy be treated with reverence.
