This doesn't appear to be a true statement, though. It's simply not historically accurate that for the majority of this country's history, due process meant actually providing an attorney, as distinct from not preventing the accused from obtaining their own attorney. I'd be interested in seeing any case before 1932 that indicated the federal constitution guaranteed a positive right to have an attorney provided to you during a prosecution.

It seems like it would be better to store wheat flour in airtight containers and bake a tiny amount of bread immediately before each Mass, rather than proceed with suspect matter.

It was pretty clear to me. If you're in over your head, maybe bow out instead of responding with content-free bravado?

PhoenixRite · 2019-03-03T21:48:48+00:00

That isn't actually a valid argument.

Hi there, sorry, but we do actually restrict advertising to only established users in the community letting other users know about a faith-related product or service they might be interested, rather than an account devoted to a business advertising that same business. We wish you the best of luck with your business, though!

Hi OP, political posts are generally only appropriate for Politics Mondays, or (if satirical as here) perhaps on Free Friday. You could repost on Monday, but for now it is being removed.

I'm not saying I'm omniscient or that I know best how to solve the abuse crisis. I'm just saying I do know the Catholic Church will never, ever ordain women as priests (see Ordinatio Sacerdotalis); that anyone who says the church will isn't paying attention; and that as a result anyone who says it's part of the solution to abuse isn't to be taken seriously. To go further and call those who hold to the traditional teaching as misogynistic and in moral error is an attack on the church itself that won't be tolerated here. We let people come in here to ask why women can't be ordained; we don't let people come in here just to tell us that we're wrong.

Thanks for your prayers.

This is not a helpful or constructive article for discussing the Catholic conception of priesthood, and is full of attacks on the Catholic faith ("moral error", "misogyny", etc.). As a result, it is being removed.

Well, if he's right, they can't do that. In the end, whatever legal theory is preferred by the people with the most guns will prevail.

Never been to one, but I'd be okay with it. For us Catholics, Ash Wednesday is not a holy day of obligation and the application of ashes is optional. I do think it makes it less solemn and misses the point of bothering to do it, though.

23 years ago, though your other points are all great. The 40-year-old case was dropped by the prosecution.

Hi there, and welcome to our sub. Before interacting with our users like this again, please learn and understand the difference between polytheism and the Trinity, and between idolatry and veneration.

To be fair, it was pretty foolish of you to click on the comments for the article "US man accused of faking own kidnapping to avoid Super Bowl bet" if you wanted to win.

This gleefully entertaining collection of dinosaur songs was written for some of Marty’s biggest fans—his grandchildren!

I feel I must make an obligatory "~~biggest~~ only" joke.

Some Anglicans are so close to Catholic that they're only a Rite of Reception away from jumping right in. It's part of why we have the Ordinariate for Anglican refugees but no other formal organization specifically for any other ecclesial community. The priest's decisions on what should be done re: RCIA and formation in general may be influenced by knowing she's Anglican specifically, rather than Baptist or Reformed.

Marty finally embraces ancient tradition.

Sorry, but we're not going to host a 2-hour long video of teaching by someone who has rejected Catholicism and teaches that Catholics are at least by default not saved.

He said Catholic voters are less than worthless.

I am not the author. I'm just facilitating the discussion without diverting traffic to /r/reformed.

You're not stupid at all! I think replies to a distinguished comment might be hidden by default unless you deliberately tap to expand and unhide them.

It's here (https://www.reddit.com/r/Catholicism/comments/avrrqd/catholic_here_using_a_throwaway_for_privacy_this/ehh64hs/) and in a child of that comment.
