I dont think this whole scandal makes the church doctrine bogus like some people are saying. But Catholics need to seriously start changing things
And im not talking about dumb LARPing about "DEUS VULT" and "BEHEAD THE HERETICS". That sentiment will fade in the next week and only come back when the next scandal hits.
no amount of time will ever fade away my WANT to burn child abusers at the stake
yeah me too but I'm saying that wont realistically happen
In any sane moral society it would, but we live in inside-of-the-dogs-ass world
considering the abuseres have been spirited away
yeah probably not
debating to going to a orthodox church vs a catholic cuz they all speak Spanish

@AlGoreRhythm @Ye Olde Sipp™ @powerpuff boy keep it out of the christian channel fellas
@Don Ronkers what does that even mean
all the catholic churches near me are all done in Spanish
epic
This is so sad can we bring back Latin Mass?
>not already going to latin mass
You don't just leave the Church because of a Spanish language liturgy
hows he supposed to understand it lol
How's he supposed to understand Greek?
Use a missal, the mass is the same every week it shouldn't be that hard.
Fellas I went to my first mass last Sunday and Wednesday mass for the assumption of Mary. They were both beautiful but I noticed compared to the baptist services I went to as a kid there was very little preaching. Is this always the case?
yes
preaching is not the focus of the mass whatsoever it is ancillary
But why
@Polybius What do you think the mass *is*?
I have no idea that’s why I’m asking
The mass is a sacrfice
It is not a service
The mass is the coming together of the people under direction of a Priest acting in persona Christi to offer a sacrifice which is propitiatory and offered for the sins of all those present.
@Polybius Make sense?
I think so.
So whereas a baptist service is more about congregating and worshipping the mass is more about forgiveness of sin and spiritual healing in a sense?
Sorry my lack of understanding is probably borderline offensive. This is all so new to me.
A baptist service is about a public expression of faith and worship where you read the word of God, pray publicly and learn moral lessons. You may even eat some bread and drink some wine (or grape juice.)
A Catholic Mass (or Orthodox Mass) is about approaching God in the holy sacrament and offering the unbloodied body and blood of Christ for the sins of those present. Which isn't to say it is not a public prayer (in fact we say it is the highest form of prayer) it is not to say it is not a community gathering, it is not to say we do not learn moral lessons, it is not to say we don't hear the word of God. It is to say rather that these are not of primary importance, the calling down of Christ onto the altar and offering him to the Father as sacrifice is the primary reason for gathering. If you ever participate in a low Latin mass for instance the scirptures won't even be read audibly to the congregation, there will be no homily (sermon) and only a handful of prayers will even be said jointly after the mass if at all.
fellas i remember somebody on here writing awhile ago that if you "leave" the church youre automatically excommunicated and need to have that lifted.
So if I was an atheist when I was a teenager does that constitute apostasy and excommunication? I was baptized and had first communion but not confirmed, recently when i returned i went to confession, but am i technically still excommunicated or something?
yeah it was me lol
