Iā€™m hoping to convert, and in fact have been mulling it over for 20 years. And Iā€™ve been deeply disappointed that TLM isnā€™t commonplace these days. I think thereā€™s one or two churches in my area that have TLM at least once a month, but I donā€™t have a car and I canā€™t get to them. TLM would just seem to me moreā€¦Catholic. Modernism is one of the things driving me away from Protestantism.
If I had a nickel for every time someone said this, I would be a rich man. It is so disheartening to see the gross disconnect between the Vaticanā€™s calls for a wide and generous indult and the niggardly response of most bishops. One or two indults per diocese effectively cuts quite a few folks (like Seeker and myself) off from the TLM because we lack the means of getting there and back.

If I didnā€™t know you better, Iā€™d say you almost made a racial remark. But, I know you and definitions of words. šŸ™‚
 
There is a particular word in your post that is similar to a racial epithet. šŸ™‚
 
However when you look it up in the dictionary you see that it has no relation to race.
 
It means stingy and that is exactly how I read it and in the context used, it could in no way be considered racial.

If I said I had a gay old time at the beach, I would not be saying I was a homosexual. Words have multiple meanings.
 
Yikes, people. This was meant in jest. I know Greg well. Which is why I said ā€œIf I didnā€™t know you betterā€ and why I had a smiley face on my post.

People are way too serious over here sometimes. Somebody even Private messaged me about this.

As they say in the movie: ā€œLighten up, francisā€

I thought you made it very obvious that you meant it in jest.
Next time try a combination of:
ā€œIf I didnā€™t know you betterā€ ,
šŸ™‚ , and maybe
ATTENTION EVERYONE: THE FOLLOWING REMARK IS MEANT IN JEST
