Kissing in the sanctuary is disrespectful. You don't kiss the bride during the wedding ceremony either.

[8] But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren. [9] And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven. [10] Neither be ye called masters; for one is your master, Christ. [9] Call none your father upon earth: Neither be ye called...

I think the reason many people dislike the sign of peace is because it detracts from the focus on our Lord and can turn Holy Mass into the Sunday social. What's worse is that I went to an Ordinary Form Christmas Mass several years ago where the priest stopped Mass and instructed everyone to...

Saint Michael the archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, o Prince of the Heavenly Host- by the divine power of God- cast into hell, Satan and all the evil spirits who roam through the world...

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedicuts fructus ventris tui, Iesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen. :crossrc:

Good advice. No priest is perfect and they could all certainly use our prayers! :crossrc:

I don't have a lot of time to sit down and explain this presently, but take a look at these scripture quotes: [shamelessly stolen from Scripture Catholic] VI. Mary's Assumption into Heaven Gen. 5:24, Heb. 11:5 - Enoch was bodily assumed into heaven without dying. Would God do any less for...

Those cupcakes in a cone look awesome :D

I had found this t-shirt awhile back. Not a direct answer to the OP, but I thought you might enjoy it :P
