Did anyone say you shouldn’t or can’t speak in tongues in order to convert? But contrast that with the Tower of Babel where people spoke a common language and God punished them by having them speak in different languages so that they all would miscommunicate with one another.
mówisz w języku polskim przypadkiem?I think it was a kind and honorable thing for the new pope to do to pay respect to the poor fellow that only had a 3 week long reign! On top of it all, JPll is Polish as was my Dad - 1st generation.
Sounds good. Is there a woman who would like to give a sermon?
As do I. However, I also believe that we should not blur the line between laity and clergy and hence my objection to many of the arguments used here. Altar servers are* not* priest. We can not, or should not, use the same criteria for determining what is appropriate. There are good arguments for keeping an all boy altar group. I just thing the women priest idea is not a valid one.
No females speaking in the Church? Hmmmm…I think the Diocese of Charleston would disagree with you. There are female readers, and a one mass the responses are sung, led by a female…also, there are females (adult) who assist the priest…yes, on the altar with communion, both species. The Church is in the round and I liked it. Many women sat up front with their families. Many elderly women sat up front as well because it is difficult to manuver in the pews. My children were Christened there, made their first penance there and received Holy Communion there. My DH and I were married in that Church. I taught CCD for many years and sponsored many confirmation candidates there. You, are way out of line. If you like sack cloth and ashes, you are welcome to it.That is not a very Christlike post, but I forgive you anyway. I am just trying to catechize you about age-old Traditional Catholic truths. It’s a Spirital Work of Mercy, so I’m feeling pretty merciful and will overlook the personal insults!
No. Females. In. The. Sancturary. Its really that simple folks. No females speaking in church either or having authority over men. There are OTHER Christ-ordained spheres for women to excel in, like pregnancy andchild rearing. Sorry if Traditional Catholicism conflicts with the golden calfs and of your Modernist world that the mass media is bringing into your living room every night. The TRUTHS OF GOD will not fail us if holy Men preach it and holy females listen!
Been there, done that…now at 52, should I just let my mind meld into a blob of goo…???That is not a very Christlike post, but I forgive you anyway.

Hold the phone there boy-o! pnewton, au claire and I and few others have come to disagreements about almost everything…but you have hit a low blow. pnewton is one of the traddyist on CAF and does speak and post very traditionalist and has links to prove it.
Come on people! Surely I cannot be the first one to discover that we have a TROLL in among us! All this person does is repeat that women are not worthy to approach Christ, should sit in the back of the Church, and shouldn’t do anything else but get pregnant and raise children. He won’t respond back about women saints, nuns, etc. He’s simply on here to incite anger and stir up debate…Here is a handy guide to the Catholic Mass for you women:
STAY IN THE NAVE. DO NOT COME INTO THE SANCTUARY.
Does your church not have a nave because it was built in a circle, or shaped like an octopus, or in whatever nonTradtional shape was the popular novelty last week? Then my advise is to stay on the side closer to the doors and farther away from the altar. That should be pretty easy, right?(If you get too confused and your church is too liberal then the alter is that Cranmer Table that the guy in the rainbow stole is saying some watereddown banal fabricated prayers over)
It shouldn’t be too long now …I really dislike these comments about bearing and raising children. Especially from women (they demean other women unfairly).
Whoa there Jack…totally…zipped over the point.
The Truth does not change to fit social conditions, The Truth does not adapt to the times, suhc a Truth would be utterly worthless.
Thing is… if you are not bearing or raising children then How Does This affect you???
Jack…that was not my meaning. I am not a grandmother…yet. My mother was a sahm, however in the economy my chidren grew up in and in this current economy… I was not. I worked outside the home.
That man you don’t want to see anywhere is a Saint of the Church, do we pick our own saints now to like we pick which parts of the faith to follow and which parts to reject?I’m sorry for jumping the gun on John Paul’s Sainthood.
Maybe helping bring down the Iron Curtain doesn’t count, or having millions of people who aren’t Catholic admire and love him either. Myself, I don’t want to see Pius X anywhere. IMHO as the saying goes.
PS, the new Catholic University in San Diego is named “John Paul the Great” University.

I do not see where women are in service to men.
