    I could do very little with Mass

    If I were given a way to survive the environment on Mars I could do very little with the iron-based compositions save make sandcastles. My options are two.... 1. Chemically - Find a way to chemically react with the environment to produce elements. 2. Nuclear Reactions - Turn the mass to plasma...

    Mass & COVID

    Hi! So I'm currently in RCIA, and I've never actually got a chance to attend mass in person. I've watched them online, but our parish is only allowing registered parishioners to attend mass. Is there any way I can still experience the entirety of mass? It just doesn't feel the same because I'm...

    A Fantastic Article on the Liturgy

    Christ is Risen! Blessed Paschal octave to every Catholic who observed Pascha yesterday! (I know there are some Eastern Catholics on older calendars still preparing for the high holy days). Given the "qurantine," I spent most of the Triduum following the Supreme Pontiff's liturgical...

    Pray for god to reopen our churches

    At the moment their is no mass due to the Coronavirus as people can’t gather together. I pray that God will end this and allow our priest and pastors to give mass again. This is one of the things that bothers me the most not being able to come together and worship. It’s been 3 weeks since my...

    Feeling of belonging to something

    I went to Mass and took with me a little book that has the responses to the priest's sayings. I read from the book. Had communion. Finally at the end of the Mass I had a feeling of completion, that I had belonged to something. It wasn't a mystical experience. It was different from the other...

    Traditional Latin High Mass: My Commentary As An Eastern Orthodox Observer

    Today I attended the Latin Mass purely as a spectator. It was my first time attending a Catholic Mass, particularly since I did not want aesthetics to influence my choice too much when I was discerning between Orthodoxy and Catholicism. Essentially I wanted it to be a decision based purely on...

    The Bread of Life

    This week and for the next few weeks, our gospel readings will focus on Jesus as the Bread of Life: His Eucharistic Presence. Sometimes our readings are centered on Jesus as a sower, others as the only Son of a vineyard owner, and yet others as a shepherd or a good Samaritan. These are all...

    confecting the body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ?

    Quote from CCC: 1374 Quote: The mode of Christ's presence under the Eucharistic species is unique. It raises the Eucharist above all the sacraments as "the perfection of the spiritual life and the end to which all the sacraments tend."201 In the most blessed sacrament of the Eucharist "the body...

    Sacrifice of the Mass Question

    Hi, I'm having a hard time understanding what the Roman Catholic Church teaches about the sacrifice of the Mass. I've read numerous Catholic apologetics, listened to debates, and read the Catechism's section on the Mass, but I still don't think I fully understand it. The area of confusion is...

    Nicene Creed in the Liturgy

    Please not this is not about the filioque or the version of the Nicene Creed It is also not about the position of the Creed in the Liturgy Since the third council of the Toledo in 579 there has been widespread use of the Nicene Creed in the Eucharistic Liturgy of the Western Church. I don't...

    Simplify Vestments and Bishops' Attire

    Speaking of Cardinal O'Malley, one of my wishes for our Church is that the attire of priests and bishops would be simplified. It seems, from my reading in the history of the Church, that the fancy and ornate vestments and attire were really borrowed from the Romans and other secular sources...
