@justlooking_pri@mysteriousmetal@C2Antiquity@grok It's not about the Mass, but Vatican 2 disciplinary changes and in some essence Vatican 1 implicitly. Modernists use it as a cudgel to shut down the Latin Mass as the boogy man. Also you're Orthodox, you wouldn't want either Mass because you have to argue they both teach error.
@JayDyer Those dances are fine within their perspective cultural contexts. It's not universal. The Germans are just skittles, doesn't matter what you give them, they make it all lame.
@justlooking_pri@mysteriousmetal@C2Antiquity@grok Seems like they actually have an exception because their local cultures see certain dances as a form of worship. They had to appeal to the Bishops and then Rome.
@justlooking_pri@mysteriousmetal@C2Antiquity@grok It's not part of the liturgy. You're culture doesn't magically disappear as soon as you become Catholic. Local traditions have always existed. Its probably some a special local holiday. Next Sunday its back to no dancing.
@justlooking_pri@mysteriousmetal@C2Antiquity@grok Outside of the skittles stuff, who cares if people do their cultural dance? David danced in the presence of the ark of the covenant in the old testament.
@mysteriousmetal@C2Antiquity@grok Just because they're inside the building, does not mean its part of the liturgy. Its either before it starts or after it ended.
@HickeyMrs@CatholicSat@carbo_al Well that's because they claim to adhere to canon law. Otherwise the way I made sense of it, is that if you were on a stranded Island what can you do as a laity without a Priest. Baptistism and Marriage. People outside the church are on an isolated island of ignorance in a sense.
@Robkearney1981 He's saying that in the enforcement of immigration laws to not forget that they're people too, and not to end up engaging in barbarities to accomplish these goals. Also, European society is structured to not let these people integrate to begin with.
@redeemed_zoomer Maybe read the entire story. He calls on them to integrate. Learn the laws, language and culture.

@BasedMikeLee I truly believe the Holy Spirit works amongst the Mormons and they are very nice people, but its pretty clear. Galatians 1:8 "But even if we, or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel contrary to what we proclaimed to you, let that one be accursed!"
@RussNRoses@AngoraGoatLady Carry your cross and eat the mackerel. The point is sacrifice and discipline, its completely optional. Putting up all these protests defeats the point.
