Friends,

This exchange of posts reminds me of something
my mentor in the field of engineering taught me:

"Don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see." eek

All,

Protestants are our brothers and sisters.
in Christ.

When Billy Graham met with Pope John Paul II,
the Holy Father addresed Dr. Graham, "You are my
brother."

It still is/was a silly site...and yes Deacon you are a sinner so am I, but the need to point it out amoung believers is silly, too.

Paromer,

Yes, Protestants are our "brothers and sisters" but they ("we" actually, I haven't been received into the Church as of yet) are heretics as well, pure and simple.

I have to agree with FatherDeaconEd. Axios led me to believe that this "clown Mass" was one of those Masses that were quasi-common in the '70's, when in fact, it was a Mass specially dedicated to what the entertainment industry could do to further the Faith if properly used.
