substance

archbishop flynn of the minneapolis-st. paul archdiocese says, "nothing of substance" will change when an alternative type roman catholic church is forced to do worship according to the roman missal, just like everybody else.

i thought worship was substantive. i thought worship was the time when the people of God gathered to be community. i thought it was the time when the word of God was proclaimed. i thought it was the time when those who don't get to feel accepted elsewhere, get to feel accepted.

but, maybe i was wrong. i just thought it was substantive. i thought giving the body and blood of Christ meant something. oops.

read about it. The push for conformity shoves away parishioners
